Today, like every day for the past year or so, I went for a walk. And like every time I go for a walk, I got severely winded halfway through. I have no medical issues like asthma, I’m just out of shape. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I'm so out of shape that I got winded from getting out of bed. FML
Today, I walked to the grocery store despite being out of shape since it was typically only a 30 minute walk and gas prices are bad. The hourly temperature on my weather app was wrong as usual so by the time I got to the store, I was sweating buckets. By the time I got back home, I was so overheated I nearly threw up. 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 got extremely winded from adjusting my blanket. What a workout. FML
Today, I was feeling really good about myself for running and walking everywhere so much so that I was out of breath and panting. Well, until I remembered that I was playing a video game and it was my character that was doing the running around that is. FML
Today, after climbing 5 flights of stairs I walked into the restroom to take a piss. I was winded but trying to keep my heavy breathing to a minimum. My plan failed when I almost fainted inbetween two guys at the urinal and started gasping for air. FML
Today, it's so windy, I actually fell over and nearly flew into the street the moment I walked outside. FML
Today, I went running for the first time in a few months. I had what I thought was an asthma attack. When I got home, I realized that it was not asthma, but instead I have gained so much weight that my running bra restricted my breathing. FML
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
Today, I was trying to exercise more, so I went for a walk. I was quickly overtaken by a middle-aged lady with cankles, carrying heavy shopping bags in each hand. I'm 19, skinny, and apparently very unfit. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You walk every day for a year, and you’re still out of shape? Maybe you’re in denial about not having medical issues!

Don't need asthma to be winded. Heart condition? Cut your walks in half and don't have as much intensity until you can keep up. Cut the distance so you can get home, and up it every time you go!

What's your diet like? What do you eat/drink before going for a walk? You still might want to consult with a doctor about this. Getting severely winded everytime you go for a walk, especially if you've been doing this for about a year is a concern and you should clear it up. At the very least your doctor could clear you medically and refer you to a more appropriate professional who can help you depending on your personal needs.

I agree that you should see a doctor. If you’ve been doing this for a year, you shouldn’t have to struggle as much as you did when you started. I’m proud of you for sticking with it! I hope you get the answers you need so you can feel better

You are doing the correct thing then, Keep on walking just start smaller and build up.
