Ht. 6'2", Wt. 373 - Today I went to go get my yearly physical for track. I'm a thrower so we don't do much but pump some iron every once in a while and work on our legs. Well I went into the doctors office and did all the usual bs, but I noticed my weight had jumped a lot!!!! I've never been so embararased in my life! well he procided to take my blood pressure and it was high to. 164/90!!!! I'm obese! He told me he would not clear me for track and I about died right there! track is my way of being with every one and doing some athletics. Now he wants me to go see a health care person to have test done on me. I've never been so scared in my life and I came home and bawled my eyes out *right now* and the only thing that keeps running thru my head is "I dont' want to die young"....
