I don't want to overdo it...

I know that working out too much can have a negative effect, but I'm not quite sure where that line is. -------------- I pay no attention whatever to anyone\'s praise or blame; I simply follow my own feelings. - W.A.

But keep an eye on the diet, too. -------------- I see the words you are typing, but all I read is clickclickclick \"He may be gone, but Sanjaya proved that it doesn\'t matter how talented you are - if you believe in yourself, you can annoy literally millions of people.\" Jimmy Kimmel
