I really debated about starting a log. This journey gets very personal at times. It's hard to announce to the world things you didn't even want to admit to yourself. But that's why I did it. It needed to be right in front of me so I could deal with it head on. And I needed support to get through it. Who would have thought I'd find that here of all places. :lol: But I did. These guys have been a great help and encouragement through some tough times for me and they probably don't even realize it. - Pagangoddess

Co-worker, during lunch break: "Why is your screen full of shots of mostly naked men?"
Me: "It's a strength training site."
Co-worker: "Uhuh."
Me: "I work out. This is an educational site."
Co-worker: "Suuuuure it is. How much have you learned about the guy posing in his jockey shorts?"

Good thing the muscles are showing through enough to back me up ;)

At least it's not as bad as carrying around a copy of this:

I actually saw a copy of that in the check out line at the grocery store and wondered how they stay in business.

You don't want to know how to get huge at home?

This is why I don't use an ad-blocker on the site. I do occasionally follow the ads and don't want to cut off that small earner.
