I did it. I went to the gym! I freely admit that I was rather apprehensive about working out in a gym full of skinny people, but it wasn’t bad. There were no girls, and just a handful of guys. All but a few of them were busy lifting weights, and no one paid any attention to me, or to my friend.
He did the elliptical for the whole time we were there, and goddamn that is one evil ass machine. I was definitely feeling the burn by five minutes in, and at ten minutes I was more than ready to hop off. I then spent almost 70 minutes on a treadmill, doing 2.5 miles for half the time and 3.0 miles for the remainder of the time. Based on my weight, I burned roughly 500 calories. And that’s not counting the bit of time spent on the elliptical! 
Tomorrow? I am definitely checking out the gym that’s close by.
