The Journey Of Losing Weight

Never in my wildest dreams could I be this determined. I always wanted to lose weight, but I could not make it to make it happen. I am aware that I gain weight every time I eat. Every time I eat food that is not healthy, I know something is not good to happen--the stored fats accumulate double. Our body depends on what we eat. The fitter we intake, the better our body can function beautifully. All vital organs can work according to their jurisdiction. How funny it seems that our important organ is like police personnel, their authority to watch for. 

It all started when enhancing community quarantine had been imposed to contain the spread of the deadly virus called coronavirus. Companies applied the work-from-home except for those who work in the food industry or the front line, like doctors, nurses,s and military personnel.

Everybody is staying at home for quite a while makes you gain weight because you have nothing to do but eat-sleep-eat. No activity can burn stored fats.

After two weeks of nothing to do, I admit I gain much weight. I was shocked when I looked at myself in the mirror. Oh, My God! That's the only word that came out of my mouth.

The following day, I grabbed my shoes and laptop, played upbeat music, and danced in front of the mirror. At first, it was hard to drip your sweat right away. I didn't force myself; I wasn't in a rush. I listen to my body. I don't want muscle pain; otherwise, I will force myself to stop the workout for a few days or wait until I am okay.

I started to lessen my carbohydrates from three cups to two cups and began to eat more fruits. Fruits that are rich in protein and fiber are good for the body.

When my body was ready for no more rice, it was easy. The transition was good; I didn't feel dizzy and hungry. I feel hungry but not hungry like you are dying to eat; it's more on craving but manageable. I drink lots of water because water can fill the hunger.

Unfortunately, I didn't weigh my weight, so I have no idea how heavy I was, but I know that it needs a lot of work based on my body shape.

As we age, our metabolism works slowly. It is why fats are stored fast and cause blood circulation not to function normally.

Let's bare in mind Health Is Wealth.
