| Body | A couple of years ago I developed T2 diabetes, which I shouldn't have been surprised by because I weigh 116kg. I have managed to improve my blood sugar test score through diet but not shifted any weight as I've not changed and started exercising at the same time. Recently thinking about the most helpful thing I could do for my mental health, I think the answer is attending a gym. A few years ago I went to the Gorbals gym for a while through the Live Active scheme but I see that's not taking new members. The only others I know locally are the one at Cathcart Road in Govanhill, and the one near or in Shawlands Arcade (I have walked past the first but not the second). The first is cheaper but a bit of a walk away, which might make me wimp out in winter. The second is an easy bus ride away and after gym I might like going to stalks and stems or getting a low calorie Americano in a Shawlands coffee shop. Does anyone have experience with either place, or have a reason why they used to go to one but now the other? I have limited money coming in but don't go to pubs or restaurants so I could afford either. |
