I mean, I play roller derby which people watch. Not paranoid there in the slightest. It's just the gym that makes me uncomfortable for some reason.

Excuse me while I go burn my house down and all that bastard judgmental furniture.

I live around DC; everything is pretty ridiculously priced in this area. There are places I found that are around $175 a month for one session at the box a week. But that's only after you've gone through the foundations class (which was like $300 for 6 weeks). I do roller derby so I really want to crossfit because…

Well, some people pay attention. I mostly ignore them but I hate being reminded that there are people there watching and judging.

I go. I keep my head down. I can mostly ignore everyone else. I just hate being reminded that some people are watching and judging.

Nope. Just didn't need a reminder that there are douches out there judging my movement.

I'm a bigger lady. Not obese big but my strength and endurance are kind of surprising to people for someone that looks like me (I worked with a trainer who said he was super surprised at what I could do). So I do actually get people who kind of watch me sometimes. I can never tell if it's people thinking "wow! …

Oh man, it can definitely be hard to integrate yourself into any new group. And the crossfit folks have always seemed a little cliquey. I would love to do it though. I just can't afford any of the boxes around here ($24 a month at golds < $300 a month at the boxes around here).

Thank you. The comment was half sarcastic. I'm not currently all that worried about the people around me but I sure as hell was when I started. It's good to know that I'm not the only one that gets paranoid sometimes about people watching me work out. And the funny thing is, it's really only at the gym. I…

If this guy was actually at my gym, I'd find him and clap chalk in his face every chance I got.

Great. I'm never leaving my room again.

Truth! If I did it right, I can hardly think on my way out of the gym.

If I actually ever met this guy, I'd probably want to clap it right in his face.

Yeah, I typically find this to be the case. The comment was half sarcastic. I had more paranoia when I first started going to the gym but I still get the occasional worry that I'm being judged.

Comment was half sarcastic. I go to the gym and am typically not to worried about being watched but it took me a while to get there. I just hate the reminder that the gym elitists are being judgmental while I'm sweating my ass off.

Oh I go to the gym. It's not going to deter me from going. It just took me about a year to get over my "people are looking at me" neurosis when I'm working out. I just hate seeing reminders :/

This is totally just what I need. Further proof that there are people secretly judging me at the gym instead of minding their own fucking business while I workout. Fabulous.

Guh. I haven't even seen the movie and the stills freak me out.

Aimee, do you have any new awesome prosthetics that you haven't shared with the world yet? I loved the wooden ones you wore for the Alexander McQueen show and I'm absolutely fascinated by the ones you've shared!

I did it! I want to be in Hufflepuff!
