    This would be the fourth gym in as many months?

    OP as has been said you've had a few threads about joining/leaving gyms lately. What is it exactly that you're looking for in a gym? Because if you know why the others haven't worked out, others here might be able to give you better advice.

    I think basically I'm too fat for a gym.

    Ok. So is your main aim in joining a gym to lose weight? Because diet is going to be the biggest factor in that.

    There's nothing stopping you joining any gym at all if weight loss is the goal. If you're not confident just walking into a gym and doing your thing (as many people aren't) could you go for a few personal training sessions to get you started?

    pinkstars do you think maybe your anxiety issues are what's driving all of this?

    You probably need to get a better handle on that before anything else. Constantly joining and quitting gyms and talking about being too fat for any of them is not healthy behaviour.

    OP, i have a feeling you need to actually seek the advice of a mental health professional. There is nothing to be ashamed of here but your obviously having trouble dealing with certain aspects of your life.

    You have received almost all the advice you could possibly need regarding health and fitness. Its just a matter of doing it.

    You will not be happy with any gym so i suggest you forget the gym idea for the moment and just go outside for a walk.

    Anytime you think about posting a thread on boards regarding nutrition or fitness just go for a walk instead because if you keep repeating the same topics the chances are that one of the MODS will ban you.
