Is there a such thing as being too overweight to dance?
Alright, so here we go: I loved dancing. I still day dream about it all of the time, though I've never been awesome at it. I'm currently obese, 218 lbs.

Sleepy after jogs?
Anyone else? I do small jogging/walking intervals for a mile's distance, as I'm a beginner still. :) Slow but sure progress.

Question to those who've had success.
Did you ever feel fear that you were going to give up while on your journey? I absolutely hate it.

No shame in stopping here, at least you…

New (And scared.)
Hi, my name is Hayley. So, today, I weighed in at 210 pounds. Honestly, I'm a little heartbroken. I'm 5'3", 21 years old, and as stated 210 pounds.
