Gyms are designed to make ppl loose weight and be healthy. This is an offense and clearly contradicts the meaning of "going to the gym."Hemmaroids
I will only repeat what just about every other responder in this thread said. At her weight, she posed a danger to the gym's equipment and herself. Besides, at her weight dieting and brisk walks are the best way to start her weight loss attempts. She doesn't need a gym. Also, gyms aren't designed exclusively for weight loss. Weight gain (muscle gain) is a main attempt of many people who go to the gym, especially for the males.

I'd say if the equipment has a posted/expressed weight limit, it's fine. Otherwise, she has a point.

I believe that's fair, all gym equipment does have weight limits and she must of exceeded them.

WHOA, going to a gym, a lady that size? She should just start with jumping up and down first.

I don't mean to be mean but no one gains 400 pounds through pregnancy. She sounds like she just wants attention. I'm on the gym's side, equipment is costly and a gym is not a necessity to lose weight, especially for a morbidly obese person.
