Actually I've had mostly the same friends from back when I was in my best
shape, which was pretty good. If any of them really cared that I got fat for
awhile then I would've said fuck 'em, and not the other way around. BTW, I
met my wife when I was close to being my fattest (about 5'10" 200 lbs, and I
got up to 220). AFAIC she's a gorgeous woman but she didn't care much about
the weight. Some women are attracted to men for their sense of humor and
other positive traits.

You've admitted to being sedentary and that you consider working out
torture. I doubt that you are much of a threat.

If he's grabbing at me, he's close enough to smack in the head with one of
my 16 ounce aluminum "Mountan Dew Game Fuel" Halo 3 bottles I have in my
office. At that point, I wouldn't have to walk very fast to catch back up
to him. However, you are correct. If I don't make contact with the
bottle, he would get away.
