Today i will write about one of the most important of turning points of my life. Things took time to change for me. Long since i remember i have been a chubby child. And believe me its tough being so, being the butt of every ones jokes for long just because you are different. I always wanted to shed those extra kilos from time immemorial but i never was in the disposition or the discipline to do so. All through out my graduation i have been what people term fat.
One day i made up my mind to lighten up. I have visited the gym lot many times but could never find the schedule right, so i started of exercising at home. I would jog do pushups and a lot many other exercises. I kept a strict control on my diet. Believe me i absolutely ate no junk food. With time i even decreased my food intake, but i kept up the exercise. I was 73 kgs when i started. One thing i didnt do was check out my weight reason being my f5ocus was never to loose weight but to be fit and in shape. Month after month went by One day i did check my weight it was 60 kgs. I never expected it to be so low it even went down to 58. People used to tell me that i have become too thin and even my parents i never believed them. I was doing amazingly well with my regime i was doing 30 pushups in a go and 6 to 7 pull ups. But one day and on many other occasions i felt drowsy and lack of energy. I realised that i need to eat properly gradually i increased my intake those days i used to devour 6 to 7 chapattis in a go. Now i a`m a`t a` rea`sonable 65 to 66 kgs. My regime is still on, i can do 40 push ups in first go 3o after that and 20 to sum it up i can do around 7 pull ups though i used to do 10 but with the increase in weight that has reduced.
All this i am writing after around one year. It took me an year to reach this stage. I still have to go far but i feel to be successful and have permanancy following is what is important.
- Exersise to be fit not loose weight. Dont watch the scales everyday.
- Dont overexercise. I do stomach exercises in the morning and later stomach and weight exercises in the evening a`ll totalling to around max 40 min.
- Eat every thing dont miss out on that cake or that chocolate but eat in moderation.
- Maintain your schedule but do take breaks now and then.
- Sleep well. Though i am poor in this part but it is necessary to sleep well.
In short enjoy food, exercise daily and be active. You may go through tons of expert advice but what i have told you is something that took me 24 years to write and 1 year of experimentation and after maintaining tough dicipline.
Take Care my friends and remember just keep at it and if you like Jonnie Walker 'Keep Walking'.
