I've never been to one but the whole "No judgment zone" thing seems silly. Sounds like I can walk in there and still judge if I want to, who's to stop me?

I like my alone time too, but recently my bf has asked to go with me. I love him a lot but I love my alone time! So I said we could go together once a week and it can be our thing :-)

I'm starting the bridge to 10K tomorrow, can I join?

We have one in town and I reeeeeeallllly want to join once I'm finally done with school. I'm just not sure I want to because I've realized every time I've auditioned or tried out for something I've never been picked, so I'm really apprehensive. Maybe I just need a push in the right direction?

I don't think it's offensive I just think it's a stupid word. I'm not married yet but I would never call my husband a "hubby." It sounds like a big ball of chubby rolly polly fat and it's very peeving to me. I'd never say anything to anyone who says it but I'm glad someone agrees with me! It's just such an ugly word.

Look on the bright side, now you have an excuse to get an iPad.

You can't really gain 2 pounds in 4 days, it's probably just fluctuation. Like me, on Tuesday I was 117.6 lbs, and today I was 121.4 lbs. I didn't gain any weight it's just normal fluctuation.

Exactly! It's my goal not to walk and I care about it A LOT, because I have never walked before and I know that I don't have to. But I couldn't care less if other people decide to walk during a race.

I live a block and a half from Cleveland.

I'd like to know too

You can add me! I'm 5' 1.5" and I try to stay around 1200. I've lost about 23 lbs so far, my goal is to lose between 30 and 40 total. My diary is open so feel free to look at it. It was definitely hard to get used to at first, but you figure out what makes you full and when you're actually hungry vs. bored, and it gets…

I think it really just depends on what works for you. I don't like to stop because through all my years of running, no matter how awful I've felt I've never stopped at least jogging, and I don't want to break that record. If you're concerned about your place, or even your time and you discover that stopping helps you go…

I never stop but it seems like the people who do stop and walk through half the race seem to beat me anyway.

I usually would just eat whatever's available, since it's a holiday, but my birthday is Saturday so I'll be doing the huge dinner/cake thing with my family Friday and the Lake Erie Islands on Saturday, and I'll want to enjoy myself then, so I'm trying to think of something healthy for the 4th. My boyfriend has a big party…

I don't. I think you're supposed to, and I've tried it and I do feel like I have more energy during the run, but it makes my tummy sick so I just don't :-(

I don't think anyone can win. Once you find that you're a medium stores are always sold out, because it seems to be the most popular size. Then places carry your size, and it fits you perfectly except for one area of your body.

Didn't say you're naturally thin, why are you here, said you're not doing anything, why are you here. And these people obviously aren't working their butts off if they're lifting two pound weights and never sweating.

When people are in the gym but do the bare minimum and never break a sweat. Why are you there? Especially when they are naturally thin.

I've always preferred Asics and New Balance. I would never wear Nike or Adidas (for running, although I do have a pair to just wear around), they're made more for fashion and not running support. But you should just go to a specialty store and have them look at your feet like everyone else said. And not a place like ****'s.

Don't go anywhere near Cleveland.

Oh and all the homeschoolers I knew HAD participated in home school networks...but maybe since they weren't around peers every day...or maybe it was something unrelated like the type of parents they had or whatever.

As a person who was very shy for most of her life, I can say that though I didn't want to go to school either because of my anxiety, I'm glad I did. If I had been homeschooled I wouldn't have had much opportunity to develop my social skills, and I would have been even more shy when I went to college. I'm sure there are…

Bump...need some clean eating friends...

I think you are supposed to because a calorie deficit is already built into your goal for the day, and you don't want to create too much of a deficit. But I wouldn't worry about it if you're not hungry. If you're hungry, go ahead and eat them or some of them back like you're supposed to. But if you're not hungry, don't…

I thought you meant Smash like the Hulk! No, to your actual meaning, I've never really felt that way about a person I wasn't dating. But yes, I have wanted to smash all kinds of people like the Hulk does lol.

I probably wouldn't go. I'd plan a night out with friends doing something fun instead with decent food.

After months on the elliptical I wanted to start running too... So I downloaded the app and while I still use the timers to help with intervals I didn't find it that helpful because I didn't start out on the couch, I was in shape already so I always wanted a more difficult workout.

Send your kids to law school - that will fix them. Lots of rejection and plenty of losers there.
