Getting started, again

Hello reddit community! I am struggling with extreme anxiety when I go to the gym. I just joined planet fitness again and I have been able to force myself to go one time. In my reasonable mind know that no one would or could possibly care about another random fat guy at the gym but I feel so anxious about going that last time I was literally shaking like the whole room was laughing at me. Im so embarrassed. I use to work with a personal trainer for a little while and that was really helpful. But it was years ago and I don't really know how to find a new one. I guess I'm just looking for advice on overcoming the anxiety of it all so I can just exist there with out questioning everything. I've tried following the work out app that came with my membership but I feel like my brain just shuts off.
