Well that is better than gaining.  Also WELL DONE on joining the gym - that is the best thing you have done for yourself and you will reap the rewards.

I remember feeling very self conscious when I first started at my local gym last September.  At 19stone I was the fattest person there, but the staff were marvellous and encouraged me in those first early weeks.  I now know the familiar faces that are there when I go and I enjoy exchanging a few words so it feels even more like home.

So stick with it, try everything out, get advice on how to optimise your sessions, if they have a personal trainer, book him/her for at least one session as it is time/money well spent.

Let us know how you get on and good luck for a successful weight loss next Monday!

Don't be surprised if you don't loose any for the next couple of weeks.  I was 3 stone down and needed my last stone.  I joined the gym and stayed the same for 2 weeks, and then the last stone came off - good luck
