I am heavy, but Im your Sister!

And just like that, in a twinkling of an eye, I have managed to find myself a whopping 16kgs heavier...yes, its true!
So, after losing the negotiation with my ‘fat jeans’ to please please please zip up, I waddled to the gym to sign up.
Now, Lady D does everything in style, including the gym she decided to go to! The exclusive Virgin Active Classic...the one Sir Richard Branson designed with Moi in mind!
A few years ago while in New York, I attended a gym at my friends place of work where you got free towels, gym kits, shampoo etc etc and I thought WOW, this would never work in SA, everything would be stolen in a minute! Never mind it took us a few years, but we have it, infact we have 2 in our country!
From the undercover parking, the free towel, the limitless number of equipment (which you do not have to wait in a line for) to the calming Zen Yoga rooms, the relaxation areas, hairdryers, GHD flat irons, all of this, at a price, its worth it! I realised Im not paying for a gym contract, its a lifestyle, and that is what has made Sir Dick so successful...he sells lifestyles, not products.
So, how is it going so far Lady D...well, Ive been 4 times, 2 in each city and love it...except for my Pilates classes...I mean in a class, 90 percent are over 50 males...what’s up with that???!! Oh well, I guess I cant have it all hey J
