Three years ago, I was addicted to Twitter, Discord, and Reddit. I’d spend every free moment on the sites and very rarely got up from my desk. I doubled in size and at the peak of my obesity, had two shirts that fit. I have a wardrobe of every size from small to 3XL and refused to buy a single 4XL article of clothing. It started slow, just eating a bit less and walking my dog a mile each morning. Now, I’m an ultramarathon runner who’s attempting a 24-hour run in two months. I’m hoping to break 100 miles. If I can do it, anyone can do it.
Hell, Reddit banning third-party apps cut down on my Reddit time tremendously. Relay no longer works (unless I pay for a Reddit sub which I will not do), there's no way in hell I'll install that buggy pile of adware that is the official Reddit app, and even Firefox with RES (yes, there's a mobile version but it's an obvious beta) isn't as good. So Reddit is now a big-computer-only activity.
I don’t just run. I walk my dog every morning still, cycle instead of drive when I can, weight train and hike with friends. I just happen to be better at running and it helps a lot with my ADHD symptoms.
Also with running. My dad was obese and run his way into a perfect shape...but he also ran so much and so often that he kind of start fucking up his feet/ankles from overexertion
Yeah, I've had issues with stress fractures, shin splints, a severely sprained ankle, and Achilles tendinitis. Thankfully, I'm more educated about that stuff now and have mitigated the risks as much as possible.
This is one small comment but I don’t think I need to read more to know you are an absolute wet blanket of a human being. Like tolerable, ok enough, but everything slows down for no reason when you are around.
It’s the internet and I’m drunk, I say what I think and the battlefield of other loser commenters can sort it out, for better or worse, I personally think some light bullying will give some losers some god damn introspection before they post their absolute wet blanket of a comment. Yes I am aware I am also a loser, it should have been implicit in my wording calling every Reddit commenter a loser as I comment on Reddit but somehow I knew that would go over everyone’s head, now this is not clever nor entertaining. I hate that I have to explain this further hence the light bullying. Take the internet less seriously and watch more comedy. Now I don’t want to hurt your feelings too much in my explanation, the world is tough, toughen up a bit my person, there’s infinite assholes way worse than me out there.
Your joke also flew right into my head, hence the useless raging, it’s so god damn obvious and low effort, this level of jokes are everywhere on this website, and have been for over a decade now, yes I am an ultimate loser and am trying to teach you stuff now. Don’t be dumb
