I'm only 22, and I've been fully prepared to wait for last round of vaccines since the start. I thought there were many more people who'd be prioritized as frontline/medical workers, elderly persons, and those with a dire illness. My state recently began allowing a wider group beyond frontline workers to register, and I found that at 5'8'' and 215 pounds I'm considered medically obese, at high risk for severe symptoms, and ought to schedule an appointment.
This is a wake up call. Not only am I at risk, but if I were a healthy young adult my spot could be taken by someone who needs it more. A healthy weight of under 170 feels out of reach right now, it's something I haven't been since middle school, but getting to under 200 and shifting out of the obese category feels more important than ever.
