When your weight hinders your ability to enjoy every day things and events, the total enjoyment you feel is diminished greatly.  Fucking this! I had a mild high ankle sprain a while ago and with only a couple of games left in the season I only took a week off to recover and kept training and competing. Regret that now but I'm almost back to 100%. My daughter asks me to go for a run and I have to say no. She asks me if we can do handstands or cartwheels and I've gotta say no and it breaks my heart. That's a few weeks recover time. I can't imagine a life where I have to constantly say no to doing things with her.
