Today, I joined a gym. I’m overweight and not very athletic, so I was nervous. I looked around and tried a treadmill. I start walking at a chill pace, then got ambitious and cranked it to a "light jog." Within seconds, I tripped, fell, and sent the emergency stop button flying across the room. The gym staff ran over and I swear someone said, “Well, at least he’s trying.” FML

I bet it laughed at you and told you to lay off the Krispy Kremes. There are some lies that just can't be tolerated, even by a treadmill.

At least you're getting on the treadmill. Good for you!

But the higher the weight that you enter, the more calories it will tell you you've burned per workout.... you'll feel better when you've done your workout and you've seen all those calories you've torched!

i didn't know about that cause i did that 3 hours ago... thx buddy and FYL OP

no, but ALL the ho- hos get filled this way

I do that too! but only to underestimate calorie burns, as the machines often over-compensate. your life's not screwed, and if you think it is YDI since you did this yourself.

it didnt believe you..not after that hole your fat ass left in it. Come to terms with yourself. Your a mother ******* blimp

wow aren't you just a little harsh....you should chill out, have some respect for someone who's doing something to fix their weight problem.

Treadmills don't need your weight; they have sensors to measure that. The feature to enter your weight is only there for the gym staff to be able to laugh at your absurd self-deception. Ever notice how the front-desk receptionist gives you an extra big smile as you leave? They know! Mwahahaha!

Stop lying or the calorie fairy will rape you in your sleep... and calorie fairy semen is one of the highest fat content things out there!

You deserve it for being insecure. Until you are comfortable with who you are, you won't lose weight. If you do, you won't maintain the loss.

It doesn't matter. The treadmill knows... as soon as you step on. You can't fool the treadmill.

well, it's kinda counter- productive to lie to a piece of excercise equipment on principle, but I doubt your nordictrack is going to call you fat anyway. just be careful though. a lot of treadmills only have a 250-300 lb weight capacity. sorry, but this is a ydi...
