I bought shoes that actually have padding. It's weird, I jogged last week and my legs felt fine; no shin splints or any discomfort. On Monday, I did sprints and that's when the pain started. I must say, all these times I've ran it's been on the track made of the rubber material. Not sure what's it's called.

Thanks guys for all the input. I know that I have to work around the excess of calories, and I will.

I'm definitely not giving up. I realize that I have to work around the excessive calories now.

I just googled compartment syndrome, and that sounds really scary and extremely painful.

me either but friend me and we can 'jaw bone up'

It's on the left front of my right leg. I've had shin splints before, so I know what they feel like. Now that I think about it, I probably should bring it up before I run again.

I had shin splints for the longest time, so the point where I hated running. Something as simple as good shoes makes it better. They are expensive, but the first time I wore them and ran, such a relief. No shin discomfort at all.

Not only did I feel physically uncomfortable afterwards, I did feel guilty as well.

Thanks for the responses. My main goal is to get to a healthy weight for my height and age and then maintain that weight.
