All
along, I’m always praised for my good looks. Good
looks exclude the weight problem. I am turning 30 this year.
Overweight has always been with me since I was 9 years old.
Since young, I was brought up in an environment that encouraged
me to eat. My parent would always console me that I was
not fat but just big framed. They would always tell me that
I should not weight too little for my height of 1.65m, notwithstanding
that the heaviest me was once weighing more than 70kg. I
bought their idea as my various attempts to lose weight
had never succeeded. I began to believe that it must be
my bone structure that “deceives” my weight
to be what seem to be overweight. Whenever a friend came
up to me to comment that I would look better if I were to
lose some weight, I began proclaimed defensively that not
many of them can be as active as I was. Indeed I was active,
I have even tried some dieting or even dumped over a few
thousands of dollars to a slimming parlor trying to lost
those extra fats, but all these are in vain.
In Year 2004, after attempting to utilize my corporate
membership at FitnessPlus Gym, I began to realize what
a proper exercise really is. It is basically a discipline
to follow an exercise schedule religiously, believing
and enjoying the process.
Within a period of about a year, I lost a total of 12kg.
As compared to some slimming advertisements, perhaps losing
12kg over a year seems to be a depressing result. But
the difference is that the lost was natural and without
any dieting. (But healthy diet of course).
