I look like a dick and care too much what people think

Started a new exercise regime on Monday just walking at first to try and build up a bit. I'm quite overweight and have neglected myself completely for years (I'm 35 now) as both my kids have disabilities and I just forgot about myself really.

I really want to get fit but can't help feeling like a total dick in my leggings and work out strappy top with all my wobbly bits jiggling away. I just feel like people look at me and think I'm completely ridiculous!
I'm sure in reality they give a toss but it's really holding me back!

So do you look at bigger people trying to exercise and think they're ridiculous or AIBU?

@thenightsky

Well, this thread has motivated me to go out this very morning and attempt to run! I'd better get going...
I'm really happy this thread is helping others and not just me.

And thanks again for all the support and encouragement. It means so much x
