Yes I am a big boy.  I have been large my whole life.  I have never much felt bad about it.  I could blame my parents or the environment or my sedentary lifestyle but all of that is bull really.  I am large because I eat a lot and have a desk job.  I am actually quite lucky that I have  both of those “ailments”.  Yeah I would love to get out and drop some weight by exercising, but that crap is HARD.      Really...
