Today, I'm so out of shape, I started wheezing on my way to check my mailbox. Not my physical mailbox, either; my email inbox on the phone I'd left on the table at the bottom of the stairs. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I'm so out of shape that I got winded from getting out of bed. FML
Today, trying to get into shape because I run out of breath after walking more than 30 minutes, I started to hit the gym. Too bad my legs didn’t want to cooperate and decided that it would cause limping-worthy pain for every step I took on the treadmill. FML
Today, I went to the gym for the first time in months. On my way home, my legs gave out halfway up the stairs to my apartment, and I had to awkwardly sit there until I could crawl the rest of the way up. FML
Today, I realised just how grossly out of shape I am, when I started violently sweating, felt light-headed, and almost blacked out. All this from helping my sister shift a sofa from the move-in truck to her living room. FML
Today, I ran out of breath while mowing the lawn. I was on a riding lawn mower. FML
Today, after running across London to catch my train, I collapsed, panting, into a seat across from a concerned elderly woman. She leaned over to ask whether I had my inhaler and I smiled and nodded. I didn't have the heart to tell her that I'm not asthmatic, just really unfit. FML
Today, I got extremely winded from adjusting my blanket. What a workout. FML
Today, I sneezed so hard I fell down the stairs. FML
Today, I'm so out of shape that my arm ached after lifting chips out of a Lays bag. FML
Today, as I was taking out the trash, I spotted my cute neighbor doing the same. In a rush to get out before he went back inside, I slipped on my iced-over porch. I passed out and woke up with a note on my chest saying, "I unlocked your door but you were too heavy to drag inside". FML

Time to get some exercise. Slow and steady. You may of deserved this but it's never to late to start fixing it.

You should see a doctor and start exercising only if the doctor say so. I have asthma and i start wheezing after a prolonged effort.

There are penalties for being out of shape... This time it was not death... Next time it may be... Get gym membership or start walking

Hold on, I'll put on "The Eye of the Tiger", it's time for OP's training montage.

I think I'm tied on this one. It could be YDI because you aren't in shape, but it could also be FYL because perhaps you haven't had time or money or the ability to do just that. Idk. I'll just wish you the best, OP. But, before working out, just see a cardiologist or regular doctor quick to make sure everything is working properly. You could have a lung or heart disease.

I dont care how little time you have in the day, thats just not good. Even if you don't have time to do a full workout every day, I highly doubt you don't have 10 minutes at SOME point in the day to take a walk.

YDI. I'm not saying you gotta run marathons, but come on, OP. Thats just a little ridiculous.
