How can I exercise privately because I hate running on the main road but thats the only place around here. I'm not the smallest girl around and I'm pretty self contious. Please any options???

    Have you tried doing any at home work outs ? For example, I love kettle bells. Walmart sells them at a reasonable price. I can do a kettle bell routine at home in my room , and it's not bad at all. You tube has many free videos to get routines from .
    There's many things you could do at home and many free workout videos online.
    But hopefully you'll feel more confident to run outside or go to a gym in the future. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. We all started somewhere .

    Do running on trade mill, it is a good alternative for running on the road.

    Jump rope if your ceiling's tall enough.

    I'd be more inclined to work on the socal aspects of this rather than avoid people while you exercise. When people see you run/walk/lift/whatever, they'll have two thoughts 1) Good for you, and 2) I should exercise more. Win Win.

    Agreed. If you want to go for a run, do it!
