All My Single Ladies! (And Men)
Now put your hands up! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Apparently I'm channeling my inner-Beyonce today. I've noticed a lot of topics for members of a certain age/gender, as well as for single mothers, etc. While I love my pals who are married/have children, sometimes I find myself feeling a bit out of place when I compare my…

Heya!- Another person looking for support
Hello! I've tried losing weight a few times in my life. In high school I was on weight watchers and lost 15 pounds...that was about 60 pounds ago. Back then (ha, I'm only 23) I still thought I was "big" and "unhealthy", when I know now that having a bigger frame doesn't necessarily make me "fat" like society was trying to…

Jobs Where You Stand
Hello! I was just wondering if anyone had any tips about working out when you work a job where you stand for 8+ hours a day. I was using this as an excuse for a while as to why I wasn't working out, but I finally decided to just get over it. My first day of working out sucked because I had to work afterwards and I was SO…
