Gaining it back doesn't mean failure
One day I stepped on the scale and saw numbers staring back at me that I never thought I'd see. 215. 215 pounds. How did I get this fat? How did I not see it? Simple, I had been in denial.

shin splints or normal pain?
I haven't jogged/ran in years. I have slowly been working my energy level and endurance up and decided to go jogging. Everything went well, and I did pretty well, but now its a day later and up and down my legs hurt, along with my hips. When I have my legs up against something and just move my feet, there is pain going up…
