I'm obese.
I am suffering from all the symptoms: A McDonald's bag in the back of my car, Movie stubs with salty buttery fingerprints, receipts from late night grocery runs in my glove compartment. Sure I have shortness of breath, high blood pressure and high cholesterol and that will take care of itself when I start marathon training (holy shit! by the way.), but what on earth am I going to do with myself when I'm not playing my supermarket game at 11pm? Sometimes when I'm in the supermarket I like to look in people's cart and figure out what items they specifically came in for and what they picked up along the way; for instance...baked beans...douche, and a lawn chair.
In the last two years I have gained a total of 91.3 lbs. That's right world and Oprah, I said it! My usual svelte frame is now covered in 91.3 pounds of depressed weight.

This blog is my transformation from a Fat boy to a Marathon man and the first thing to do is to set small goals because you can't eat a whale all in one sitting.
Goal #1
set small goals
Goal #2
Buy running shoes
one word: Newtons. Newton running shoes (mine are pictured above) are colorful, socially responsible, and the latest in shoe technology as referred to in their website: http://www.newtonrunning.com/
Goal #3
Go for a jog
Ugh tomorrow.
