I tried something I thought was different in my last story Got to Choose, where the "bad girl" wins in the end. It wasn't received that well compared to my others. Oh well. Thanks for reading and for providing your feedback.
Before the anons start nit picking the fast weight loss in this one, I based that on my friend. He lost 115 pounds in 9 months.
Thank you randyd1369 for the edit and advice. I made some changes after his editing so anything bad is my fault.
===========================
My name is Joe Ryan. I work in an office as a project manager and most of my day is spent sitting on my rear end. The company that I work for is a marketing and consulting company, and even most meetings can be done via computer and phone.
When this began, I was 5'10" and 372 lbs. I had already been diagnosed with high blood pressure and was just diagnosed with diabetes.
My doctor said, "Joe, you've got type II diabetes. Your blood sugar level and A1C are high, but it's not a death sentence. It can be managed with medication, but you need to lose weight and get your diet and health under control."
"Doc, if I lose weight and change my diet will it be reversed?"
"No, but it would be managed. It might even be under control enough to get off the med, but that's gonna take a complete life change. To be candid, you should have done it when you were diagnosed with the hypertension."
"I know doc. I'm not gonna lose my feet or anything will I?"
"The bad things happen when you don't change and take control. Take control Joe. You have the power here, only you."
"It's so hard, I've tried diets and better eating, but nothing ever works for me. I'll give it a try."
I left his office dejected and not sure I could do a lifestyle change, but I would try.
My health was a wreck. My eating habits were horrible, so I was given a diet plan to follow. Not a flash diet like Atkins or Keto, but a healthy food plan. I got a prescription for a new medicine and left the office. I was disappointed that with these new pills I couldn't drink alcohol, but the worst part of this was that everyday, I had to prick my finger to test my blood sugar. Like I said, my health was a wreck.
When I came home from the doctor after finding out about the diabetes, I overheard my wife, Vicki, on the phone. I was in the foyer; she was in the kitchen. She must not have heard me come in.
"Seriously, he can't get it up 75% of the time," she told the listener. "I don't even try to initiate sex with him anymore. He gets so upset about not getting hard that he's resigned himself to being sexless."
I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
"He told me to divorce him and meet a man who can give me the sexual satisfaction I need. No, I won't divorce him, he makes too much money, and I absolutely still love him Jill. I'll just keep meeting my lovers. Yeah, I have a rotation of three guys. I figured if I had only one lover, I would see him too much and that would risk one of us falling for the other. So I play it safe. What Joe don't know won't hurt him, right? He uses his hands and gives me oral sometimes but I need a hard cock, ya know? Besides, do you know how hard it is to get in the mood, with almost 400 pounds of flesh on top of you?
I know, Jill, but that was the start of my taking a lover. I was really hot one night and Joe was kissing me and feeling me up. The next thing I know is he is laying on top of me trying to be romantic and kiss his way down my body. I was so uncomfortable that by the time he got to my pussy, I lost the mood. I was so horny the next day I let Dale from work finally win. He'd been trying to get in my pants for a year. He did me right in the supply room."
I'd heard all I needed to hear. I got back into my car and drove to the closest bar. I hadn't taken any pills yet. I thought, "Screw it, I'm going to get fucked up."
The sad thing was, everything she said was true. I was having erection problems. My doctor said it was caused by the weight and blood pressure issues, so I couldn't get Viagra. I'm not sure if he was worried about my heart, or that he just wanted me to lose weight and wouldn't prescribe it. In hindsight, I probably should've gotten a second opinion on that.
One particularly bad night, after 2 bottles of wine and a lot of frustration I said, "Vicki, divorce me and be happy. Find someone who can satisfy you. You're still young, you can be with someone who isn't weak willed like me. Look at me! I'm a mess. I can't find the strength to lose weight to take care of my heart nor to help get my dick hard for christ's sake."
"Don't be an idiot, Joe. I'm not divorcing you and especially not over a health issue. You just need to find a way to be stronger and lose weight, and drinking this much doesn't help either. There are still ways you can pleasure me in the meantime. Speaking of which, how about we go upstairs for some of that tongue magic right now."
I would go down on her as often as she'd let me just to try to keep her happy, but lately she would put it off with an excuse. I guess now I know why. I may have meant it when I told her to divorce me and have a real sex life, but I couldn't condone the disrespect of an affair, let alone three lovers. Three lovers. Jesus, what a slut.
As I was drinking away my problems, I realized that I was probably an alcoholic on top of the medical issues. I did drink a lot and I drank several times a week. I put that drink down and vowed that would be the last one.
I walked out of the bar and saw a health club in the strip mall across the street. I waddled over and signed up. My doctor had told me that I have to get off of my ass and move, but he was worried about me doing something too strenuous like lifting weights. I could walk a bit on a treadmill though, and build up to longer walks and possibly running.
I went home to my wife to give her the news. When I walked in, she acted like the same loving wife she always was. "Damn, she's a great actress," I thought.
"Bad news honey," I stated as she gave me a kiss. "Doc says I have diabetes."
"Oh no!" she gasped.
"Yep, I've got to be on another med, this one to control my sugar. I won't be able to drink while I'm on it."
"Good," she said. "You drink too much any way. That will help lower your blood pressure, too. You know alcohol raises it."
"I know. I've been given a food plan to follow too, so you'll need to have different meals for me. It's not like a fad diet though. It's normal foods that I will have to eat measured portions of."
She smiled, saying, "That's no problem hun, I could stand to eat healthier, too."
My wife was still attractive. We're both 40, but she is thin and tall. She has beautiful green eyes and long silky black hair. I loved her as much as I did when we started dating. She was also dynamite in bed. She used to love giving me blow jobs; she said it gave her power over me, controlling when I came. I missed her blow jobs, I guessed I'd never get one again.
Before the issue with my performing, we had a great sex life. We made love a couple of times a week and never shied away from trying different things to keep the interest up.
