Losing the ability to do normal things
Added 2020-09-17 04:05:41 +0000 UTCHey guys, it's been a while since I've written a journal update about my gaining, mostly because I wait for milestones worth writing but I guess that's why I'm here tonight, haha.
Today I went to go do my laundry at the laundromat, and it's been over a month (15-18lbs) since I've gone and done that. I barely made it through washing and drying everything, I was covered in sweat and wheezing for air. I didn't realize that a month of limited activity would limit my mobility this much. I had to ask one of the workers for help carrying the baskets to my car, because I simply couldn't handle it a second time. I went home to rest and eat a large lunch afterwards, take my usual post-meal nap and then woke up to go grocery shopping.
This is where it became very apparent to me that I need to rework what I'm doing. I barely made it from my car, to grab a cart, and in the store before I was (yet again) covered in sweat. I've never sweated like this before, It's almost like the simplest tasks are just too much for my growing body to handle now. I left my cart at the door, went back to the car to catch my breath and began preparing an order for delivery. I'm very serious about being done shopping, I'd rather pay the surcharge to sit at home and have my groceries left at the door.
Now, what baffles me is that since I haven't left home much, I didn't realize how big I've gotten in the last month or two. I was struggling before, but as of tonight I'm completely giving in.
I just spent $45 on Taco Bell, and I can't wait to set the camera up and pig out for you guys.
This is my life now. September 16th, 2020. I'm choosing to limit my chores and errands to curbside/delivery options. I don't want to exercise or build stamina, I want to give in and grow fatter and more out of shape for you guys.
I really can't wait to see how fast I can eat myself into housebound status.
All the love and calories,
Tom.
