The world goes around me, and I am feeling the emotional stress of my well being, there is not a day that goes by with out having a harmful comment a wish of a hug from a girl that I like.
It has been a damageable trip from my childhood until my young self, I am getting tired of the troubles of every day, the battles with the control of food, with the battles with the discipline of doing some kind of exercises to start loosing this over grown stomach, the taking of a shower has become a torture for me.
For every time I look at the mirror is a reminder of what hangs in my stomach, what a battle indeed?
A emotion that I don't desire for no body, some people don't understand this and start making speeches for me to supposedly motivate me to keep my weight control, friends and family try so hard to make my life better when they are around, this is appreciated since in those moments I look forward to.
The reality is that I am getting tired, the idea of wake in up every day and do the routine has become almost unbearable. I ask my self the question is't worth it?
Many books, many dietitians give you an enthusiastic YES!
And this makes my life better,it really does for 10 seconds, and then as soon as I do my first seat-up boom oh this is to much! The answer I get later on.
I am starting to sound like a rumble looser, don't I?
But lets make something real clear,there is a reason I am putting all this emotional words in to this article, I am very sure that someone else is going tru this everyday. I am so confident that if you are reading this article you are probably someone like me that is going in to the same moments as I am.
And you know what? This gives me comfort, because I now Know I am not alone.
Let's start a journey together, lets pretend that you and me have a pact, if we start this journey we have to succeed. We have to win! Because this time we are not doing it alone.
I make this promise to you from that I will write and article every day about what I am doing, to keep my self in the journey to freedom of this cursed sickness of obesity.
I know you probably think this is crazy and it won't work, but is not about that, for me it will be a different journey since I am one with the problem, not an actor or someone pretending to be, this is real baby!
This 100% the truth about being FAT and the struggles of getting healthier.
So let's start with the truth, I am really overweight, and with it, came some consequences one of them is my flexibility is not good I have problems putting my socks in, my cholesterol levels are high, I get tired very easy .
This are my truths, yours are you to do inventory of yourself and decide them, write them in a piece of paper or better in a notebook so you can write your journey, I am!
First of we both are going to go to some tough moments and we are going to feel like giving up, but I want you to remember this sentence:
" The battle for success has many paths,but the path to lose has only one , the one of deciding not to take any path"
For everyone the journey is different the weight loss programs are different, even the way we decide to feed the nutrients our body needs is different the idea here is that you choose one.
In the way I will choose some and will write about them, I will give you some nutrition facts articles, but at the end of day you decide if you want to follow me in this journey of articles. Until then rest and decide.
Roberto, thank you for the honesty in your article. I think it is very brave and also a great motivator for others in your situation. Losing weight is hard. Being healthy is not. Perhaps if you could change your focus to making healthy choices every day rather than having to 'lose weight' it might help with some motivation. My brother-in-law recommends a book called Eat Fat, Lose Fat. It has been a long term solution for him. My little boy (who is only 8) has opted to go gluten free this last week. I'm trying to support his decision as best I can and, while this is different to your situation, I find that he is doing great because I am providing adequate substitutes for what he really likes to eat. Don't be conned by marketing on what is 'healthy'. Do your research and eat so much of the good stuff that you can't fit the bad stuff in! I love your quote by the way. I also like: There is no harm in failing unless it's failing to get up again after you fall! Many good wishes to you.
