I'm a young guy and I'm very skinny. I've thought about going to the gym, but I can never seem to get over the fear of being the smallest person, having people give me looks for being super skinny and talking about it. What could I do about this? What has helped you in the past?

Hey everyone, My name's Adam, and I'd like to share my story. Many years ago I was diagnosed with a nasty thyroid disorder called Graves Disease. I was as light as 165, and as heavy as 270. I tried my best for the last ten years to lose weight with little to no success, but regardless...

Do you believe in yourself? your greatest strength comes from within !! How strong have you been? stop and think and see if you are living the way you dreamed, if you don't get up and look for change now, don't wait until tomorrow, be better than yesterday and my better than today.

Everyone wants to change the world, But no one wants to be the change?!?!
