Fat experiences

Hi i am asking anybody and my question is and what weight or age did you start having mobility or health problems? Just curious as a new Feedee

It depends how you classify health/mobility problems... I'm currently 26, 5'2" and 326lbs, folks ages, heights, muscle distribution, exercise levels, and family history will all play a factor...

I technically had a health scare right around 300lbs where we thought obesity-caused sleep apnea (which weirdly is actually a type of sleep apnea) was depriving my lungs and brain of oxygen, did a sleep study and it turned out to be a different issue causing the main problem but I do have mild sleep apnea likely due to all the weight on my chest... this being said, I carry a lot of weight in my boobs, so it probably is affecting me earlier than most.

I started getting small cysts between my thighs at around the 250 mark due to constant rubbing/sweat, but they are manageable with good hygiene.

No diabetes or heart/blood pressure concerns yet, but both run in my family so it will probably happen eventually....

Mobility... right now I can probably walk an hour, maybe hour and 15min at a leisurely pace on flat land without stopping, for me its less about stamina and more about how sore my feet and ankles get carrying my weight... Running is a joke, I could maybe sprint for 30 seconds before I need to stop and catch my breath. Stairs are still fine, after a flight I start to breath heavier, and i usually need a break after 3 flights. Im doing work on my flexibility rn, I haven't touched my toes since the low 200 range...

Thank you! Good luck on your flexibility

Hi,
(Translated with Google Translate)

I am 45 years old, 1.64m tall, and currently weigh around 130/135kg. I personally feel that my body doesn't look that heavy in proportion.

I have multiple health problems, but I've had issues with my weight since I think I was in my 20s, and that isn't conducive to my health.

I have always weighed between 100 and 60 kg, and sometimes I would lose 40 kg within six months, only to gain it back even faster afterwards.

By now, I have type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea (my liver values ​​weren't good the last time), high cholesterol, wear and tear on my back (the doctor says this is because most of the weight hangs on my stomach), edema in both my legs, one worn-out knee, and poor fitness. I prefer not to climb stairs anymore because it hurts a lot and I arrive at the top out of breath and sweaty. Over the next two weeks, I have several appointments at the obesity clinic, including a walking and cycling test. They also noticed something abnormal during the cycling test last year.

I still need to figure out how I'm going to explain my weight gain. No FF, just the fault.

I never expected to have these symptoms at such a young age and while still at a relatively low weight. The doctor says it's just pure bad luck.

Sorry to hear you’re going through this. I have a lot of health issues, Fibromyalgia, PMOS, knee injury, palpitations after Covid among other MH stuff like anxiety and AUDHD with a little trauma scattered in for good measure!

It’s tough when you’re wired the way we are so I think it’s important to find balance between health, acceptance and happiness. I had high blood pressure, mobility issues were much worse, palpitations were more common at 120kgish and now I’m 93kg I still indulge, still am pretty “fat” even if not as much as some of this community would like sometimes. But I’m at a place I can enjoy this and have a hold on my health.

Also when it comes to GLP1s, regardless of what people say they are fantastic at helping with health issues aside from the weight loss. You may already be on one for diabetes, but I can’t recommend them enough. I haven’t lost all my weight, but it’s helped with my Fibro and PMOS/PCOS

I hope your health improves and you still manage to find a way to enjoy this without it impacting you too much

Thnx for your reaction. I know lose weight is important but also difficult. I don't use the glp1 right now but maybe they advise me in two weeks to use it
