     I have weight problems. Significant weight problems and its affecting both my heart and kidneys. and my dietary patterns and exercise (lack thereof) are, if I don't do anything going to kill me, or at the very least, kill my kidneys. So... it's get my shit together or write a will.

     @da_667 you can do it. If I can, anyone can. Hopefully you aren't as old as I was when you had the uncomfortable conversation, learning to enjoy working out is a lot tougher in your late 30s.
     
     If you want some inspiration, I've lost over 100lbs in the past ~12 years, which is a fairly slow burn sure but I've done it the "right" way with a better diet and more exercise. Getting a dog was a real turn-around for me; dogs gotta walk after all.

     they also put me on Bupropion? It was described to me as something to combat seasonal depression, which I do admit that I have some struggles with. I find it hard to be motivated when I wake up to darkness, and then the sun is down before like 5pm.

     So.... I have reminders set for daily cardio, and daily water consumption. I just need to figure out diet.
