Seeking good gym in Western Suffolk County

Does anyone know a good gym in the western suffolk county area ?  I have lost 73 pounds but I need to start exercising to break a stall.  I am still obese so I don't want a gym with all skinny athletic people.  I really haven't ever really exercised do a need a good stater gym.  I work during the day so I need somewhere that is opened evenings and weekends.

I know I'm asking for a lot but I really need your suggestions!  Has anyone tried Ladies Workout in Medford or Seldan or Patchogues Curves?

Thanks for all you help.

I just looked into Planet Fitness. There is one in Hicksville. I may be joining the one in Bayshore.  It's called a Judgement Free Zone.  Most of the folks I saw in there were normal people.  No little skimpy or tight outfits, no body builders.  I have the same concerns as you, and they explained to me that PF is the type of gym that people who are joining a gym for the first time go.  Not like Golds or Balys. You can go in and ask questions and have a look. That's what I did. I also need something that is open late because I get off work at 9:00 PM. They have 2 different plans, one for $10.00 a month (39.99 start up fee) and one for 19.99 a month, no start up fee right now.

Good Luck!!

 There is a planet fitness in centearach in the walmart shopping center.  I like xtreme fitness in farmingville on portion rd

I belong to the Planet Fitness in BayShore.  I love it.  The hours they are open are so convenient, the price is right...I did the $10 a month plan.  I have never felt uncomfortable or out of place. Plenty of machines, plenty of tv's and the staff is awesome if you need help.
Good luck to you!

I'm in Patchogue and I've looked into Planet Fitness in Centerreach because they are so cheap and have extended hours but haven't joined because of the drive. Nichols Rd at 5:00 is a nightmare and I know a 30+ minute drive would cut into my motivation.

Curves is kind of expensive and most people say they get bored with it quickly.

Finest Fitness in Patchogue is having a promo right now. It's a 21 day fitness study. Call them and ask about joining the study. I think you have to sign up by 10/17/08.  They'll ask if you currently exercise on a regular basis - just say NO. I started mine yesterday. I met with a personal trainer and he set up a program for me. You have to commit to working out 3 days per week and keeping a food log. You get full use of the gym and any classes for the 21 days.
