I absolutely love when readers engage with my content. It’s my desire to produce the content that will help you the most. Hearing feedback from you makes that process easier. I want everyone in my community to grow through this blog, as will I, and to protect the beneficial nature of this blog, I have a few guidelines regarding comments.
Please note that all comments are subject to my Disclaimer, Privacy Policy, and Terms & Conditions.
Community Guidelines
If your comment is disrespectful or overtly negative, it will be deleted. Any comment that does not contribute to the conversation will also be deleted. Self-promotional, affiliate marketing driven, and backlink building comments are not an example of contributing to the conversation and will be deleted. The author will also be blocked from commenting in the future.
In order to provide the best feedback possible, please provide your REAL first name, last name, and email address when commenting. In the event a business email or name is deliberately provided and the comment is not contributing to the conversation, it will be considered self-promotional and the comment will be removed.
Please do not link your blog, business name, or web address in the comments unless it is clear that the comment beneficially contributes to the conversation. Comments that do not follow this will be marked as spam. I routinely go through comments marked as spam and approve those that were moved in error. Please contact me if you feel your comment was marked as spam in error.
Per the Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy, presume that your comment is being posted publicly on It’s Been A Pleasure, LLC, d/b/a Drew DuBoff, d/b/a Favored Freelancer, d/b/a Virtulancer, d/b/a Quizzalicious, d/b/a Slim No Gym (“Company”). By commenting on this site or any associated community group or social forum, you give the owner of this site, Company, the exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sub-licensable, and transferable license to reproduce, distribute, display, perform, prepare derivations of, and use in any other method seen fit.
When posting a comment, the following applies:
All Rights Reserved: the owner of this site reserves the right to edit, delete, move, and/or mark as spam any comment. Any IP address linked to spam comments can be blocked per this comment policy. Individuals who do not follow these rules will be blocked from accessing this site, from subscribing to any correspondence concerning the site, and from commenting on this site.
Links: Comments that contain links are automatically held in moderation. Comments that are blatantly self-promotional with links will be marked as spam and the user will be automatically deleted. Repeated attempts will result in the IP address being blocked from commenting further. Links that genuinely contribute to the conversation are not problematic, but if there is a doubt as to the nature of the comment, consider not posting it.
Copyright/Plagiarism: It is assumed that all comments are the original thoughts of the author. If notice is received that this is not the case, the offending comment will be deleted and the user blocked from commenting further.
Email: An authentic, verified email is mandatory for commenting on this site. In the event that the owner of this site desires to contact the author of a comment for informational or promotional purposes, it will be through the email provided, so please ensure that the email given gets checked on a frequent basis. Any email address provided is not published when contributing a comment and it will not be sold to a third party for financial gain. Feel free to unsubscribe from blog comment notifications and email correspondence at your convenience.
Privacy: Your privacy is taken very seriously. Any comment containing personal information such as an email address, phone number, home address, or any other confidential or private information will be removed to protect the affected party, regardless if it pertains to the comment author or another individual or group. To prevent the removal of a comment, do not mention personal or private information in a DrewDuBoff.com blog post, community group, or other social forum. Please read the entire Privacy Policy to be fully informed.
Respect: Any comment that is deemed disrespectful by the blog owner is subject to removal. This includes comments with unnecessarily profane language. Comments of this nature will result in the author being banned from commenting again. Any comment that is disrespectful to the owner of this site will be removed and the user blocked from commenting again. Feel free to contact me in a constructive nature if you feel that your comment was inappropriately removed as a result of this comment policy.
Relevance: Please keep all comments relevant and on topic to the post to which it pertains. Comments that are a blatant attempt to promote external content, gain external traffic, add backlinks, increase brand exposure or personal site traffic will be removed and the user will be blocked from further interaction with Company. If a comment left does not pertain to the topic on hand, it will most likely go unanswered if it is not removed. If there is a specific topic you would like to know about, try searching for it in the search box prior to inquiring more about it in a comment. Please reach out to me using my contact form if you have an idea for a post you would like to see come to fruition that could help you and others.
Spam: Any comment deemed as spam will be marked as spam and the user will be deleted and blocked from commenting again. Repeat offenders will have their IP address permanently blocked from interaction and access to the site.
Liability: All comments on this blog are the sole responsibility of the contributing comment author and not the blog author. Through submitting a comment, it is assumed that the content is original. Company claims no liability per the comments on the blog. Additional post authors and commenters are not liable for the thoughts of one individual commenter.
Gravatar: To facilitate the process of commenting and being approved, consider signing up for Gravatar (do it HERE). This will allow your comment to have a profile picture displayed next to your comment. It also implies authenticity of the author and is weighted more heavily against spam, but not definitely.
Consulting: The owner of this blog does not offer health and wellness consultation services at this time. Reference to asking for advice that exists under the umbrella of health advice, including, but not limited to, fitness, nutrition, and general health and wellness feedback, will result in a comment’s removal. Comments must contribute to the conversation and cannot simply be for personal gain that furthers the commenter’s career.
Protocol When A Comment Does Not Appear: Patience is a virtue. While I truly desire the opportunity to be readily available to approve every comment instantaneously, that is simply neither feasible nor realistic. All comments are moderated and it may take time for some to be approved or denied, given the nature of it. Please do not contribute the same comment twice unless you are positive it did not correctly submit. Feel free to contact me if you feel there is an error pertaining to your comment.
No Weight Loss Guarantees
Please note that the owner of this blog is not a health and fitness professional, trainer, dietitian, or health consultant. There may be some comments that are out of the scope of my knowledge, but I will do my best to answer each comment candidly. As I am not a perfectly qualified individual, I cannot guarantee that any advice presented will absolutely guarantee a reader weight loss or any other perceived form of success. I share my advice and stories with the intent that it will help you and guide you to having a better and healthier life, but it is by no means the only advice you should follow.
The information contained on this site, or provided by request, is for informational purposes only. No information on Slim No Gym is or should be used in a way that could jeopardize your health or someone else’s. Do not expect that even if you follow everything I suggest, your goal will be attained as there are external forces at play.
The information on this site has not been evaluated by Medical or Health Professionals
Nothing on this site is to be believed as coming from a health and fitness trainer or medical professional. The advice and suggestions I provide have worked for me, but that does not mean they will necessarily work for you. Certain strategies and tactics I mention have worked with everyday people I have encountered, but you may not be the same. If you truly desire the opinion and feedback of a qualified professional, I encourage you to reach out to one. The information on this site is not guaranteed to work in all cases, despite it working for me.
Thank you for your comments and contributions to this blog! I truly appreciate your insight and experience and I cannot wait to help you accomplish your health and fitness goals.
