  • I am glad i'm not the only one struggling. I was training for a half marathon that is postponed until fall and seem to have lost all momentum.

  • My wife and I have been working really hard. She's not only losing, but getting pretty ripped. Visited the inlaws last week and my mil tells her she looks good, but now her boobs are too small. And we wonder where these insecurities come from.
