      being physically unfit is hell.

      imagine not being able to wipe your own ass because it’s too wide for your own arms to reach

      imagine not being able to tie your own shoes because you can’t bend enough to reach them either.

      imagine getting winded from standing still

      imagine your joints screaming in agony every time you so much as stand up

      imagine not being able to clean because you can’t reach the floor without risking falling over and not being able to get back up.

      i have been up to the very brink of letting my weight disable me and I count myself EXTREMELY LUCKY that I seem to have stopped on the edge and pulled back before ruining the rest of my life.

      The pleasure of eating always disappears IN MERE MINUTES but the consequences can linger indefinitely if these indulgences are left to go unchecked.

      IT’S NOT WORTH IT.
