    Well, I'm a self made woman. I own a whole bunch of dumpsters which have been rehabbed into tiny houses. I rent them out to both budget travelers, and rich weirdos. What can I say, it's a living.

    I am a library director. I spend a lot of time in my office, and about half the time walking to other nearby offices and visiting public areas. I walk up 1 flight of stairs probably 10 times a day. I love my job, but it's not going to burn a lot of calories. I have to do that at 5AM or after my son goes to bed at 8:30PM.

    How can I get in on this Venture?

    I partnered with Suzreen and now run a Home finders outfit called Dumpster Dive and it's been very Lucrative since the Election! :no_mouth:

    Graphic designer and full time student. Not too helpful and it built some really bad habits that have been hard to break... like going to the McDonalds across the campus almost every night on my way home.... Imagine being forced to drive past a physical temptation that was part of a routine every night at 10pm when you are tired and stressed....

    I'm the billing manager for the durable medical equipment department at a pharmacy. It includes sitting on my *kitten* in my chair for 12 - 14 hours a day. So completely detrimental to a healthy lifestyle.

    I am a high school vice principal. Detrimental to fitness goals for a few reasons.
    1. I sit far more than when I was in the classroom
    2. I do not have free lunch hours anymore (when I used to hit the school gym or go for a jog)
    3. longer days and way more stress

    I combat this by ensuring I eat well, hydrate and have amped up the cardio (going for evening jogs). So far so good.

    Professional writer-- content/copywriter/ghostwriter for websites, pro blogs, viral newsletters.

    Sitting on *kitten* most of the day isn't conducive to a healthy lifestyle. But I prioritize my health and happiness now.

    I work the prestigious job of a meat clerk at a butcher block. It keeps me on my feet all day so it’s easy to get my recommended 10K steps.
