I’m going to get going already.

So I’m sitting about 265 pounds at 6’2”. I’ve been athletic as a kid, got very overweight about grade nine onwards.

This last year I’ve lost a lot of weight, about 35 pounds. This has been largely without any real physical exercise, and not much discipline. Genuinely I just started drinking water more often, soda less, and more often than not i maintained some semblance of portion control. (Comparatively speaking).

But a few days ago, my ‘luck’ ran out. My girlfriend of two years dropped the bomb that she felt she had to break up, and moved out that very day. I’ve been so anxious and depressed, so sad I couldn’t stand up. So I went for an evening walk trying to force my legs to carry me and dispel this pent up emotional energy.

I got them moving and I could hardly stop them. For fifteen minutes, I ran (a half ass speed walk/jog, really). I just moved and moved and it hurt and I felt like it was just burning all the sad in my legs and feet.

Fuck this feeling sorry for myself and waiting for the world to fix itself around me. It’s time to get’r goin.
