F/21/CW:379.8 lbs
Holy fuck. Even the most basic workouts are so freaking tiring when you’re obese. I used to throw shot out and discus in high school, so I used to work out often. I was always fat and always struggled with my workouts, but I got shit done. I’ve packed on quite a bit of weight since then, and man have I let myself go (not that I ever really had myself together).
I recently decided I’m finally ready to loose weight but haven’t acted on it at all besides buying healthy food that usually goes to waste. I stepped on the scale two days ago and it said 375 lbs. Gross, but expected. Here I am two days later and I’m basically 380. I’m only 20 pounds away from 400. That really just hit me like a truck. That fact that I’m so close to a number I thought I’d never be near is frightening. I’m used to being in the 310s or even 320s, but 380? Nope. Can’t do it.
So even though I was tired, I hopped out of bed and did a 30 minute workout. Total fail. I had no clue what I was doing to be honest. I just did random stretches I remembered from school. Threw in some leg workouts and arm circles and that was about it. In total I probably spent 10 minutes out of the 30 just laying on the ground panting like a dog. At the end of the day I did. I did something. Even though it would have been easier to just lay in bed, I got up and did something and I’m really proud of that. I have a long way to go, but I’m ready for this journey.
