General

I can relate. I define unhealthy closer to unfit. I still have my health, but my asthma has gotten worse as a larger woman. It is triggered by exercise, so even as an underweight/thin woman, I was never into running or sports. I always preferred being a bit of a couch potato.

At my heaviest weight (which I want to return to and exceed), my lifestyle just got more sedentary, and I liked that feeling. I work a desk job that is intense in terms of demanding time and concentration. Thus, when I am home, I need to relax. I make or order supper, then take that plus snacks for later to the sofa where I sit to watch tv, read, or go online. Unhealthy? Yea.., perhaps, but I enjoy it.

Once my wife started going up and down the steps one by one, I knew she hit a point of no return. Now, at 42 stone, it’s impossible for her to use the stairs and she avoids walking in general unless it’s to walk to the car. I love teasing her about her bad shape and she teases me back by complaining how massive she has become because of my encouragement

Why do I feel like this was ripped from a comment I have seen from a Jubilee video?

Ha ha! Maybe I did, maybe I didn’t. But that’s something only you shall find out!

Eh, gaining weight isn't necessarily equal to being unfit and unhealthy. There are tons of fat people that are in really good shape.

Hell, one of the heaviest active sumo wrestlers in the world, Yamamotoyama Ryūta, weighs over 600 lbs.

Absolutely-it’s the antithesis of what I was.
I always used to rush and run and everything had to be done instantly.
My work ethic was brutal, I would often be told by senior management to calm down and cut myself some slack.
Calming down, slowing down and actually giving myself a rest at times is much better for me.

Let us know how it goes~
