I'm trying adopt a new lifestyle. I used to eat fast food once a day, every day, and I am naturally very sedentary because I'm unemployed. I want to be able to live a long, active life for my daughter, so I have to also get heart healthy as well.Raydran Nejanuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08791568501995173805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444210416664044589.post-81206740888691304412011-02-14T04:18:05.956-08:002011-02-14T04:18:05.956-08:00Are you just trying to be healthy or are trying to...Are you just trying to be healthy or are trying to lose weight?<br /><br />Over the winter, I purposely gave myself a little potbelly because during the summer I saw a girl at the mall with a similar figure. Everything else was small looking. She just had a little gut. It was so cute. So, I decided my mission over the winter would be to get that little potbelly. I know it sounds silly and probably a little self-destructive, but I stopped listening to my body and I just ate. <br /><br />I think one of the main reason why I have always been thin is because I listen to my body. My body tells me when I need to stop eating, when I need to start eating, when I need to stop eating a particular item, when I need to start eating a particular item, etc. Now, I don't listen and I can feel the bad effects of that. The "I want to vomit" bad effects. But, I did gain those five extra pounds needed to get that potbelly and I enjoy having this potbelly. However, come summer... I will listen again and because it's the summer, I will naturally be more active. So, I'm sure I can get the weight off without having to go out of my way to get it off. That's the thing I can never see myself doing. Going out of my way to exercise and diet. I hate formal exercise. I want to be active, but have fun. I enjoy food and I'm not going to restrict myself just to be thin. True, I can't deny how happy I am that I got lucky in that area, so I can enjoy food without having to restrict myself nor formally excerise. However, this is not going to lost forever. Usually my family goes downhill after pregnany. But, I figure when that moment comes, my body will naturally tell me what I need to do. I know I eat a lot less than I did when I was teenager and it's because my body isn't that hungry anymore and it tells me that. I used to be able to eat a whole foot-long from Subway, with soup, cookies, soda, and chips... in one sitting. And I would get hungry again like two hours later. Now, I can only eat a 6-inch sub and after that, I feel bloated. Add the drink, and I'll probably be dead. I just trust my body. It's always been good to me. Also, I would like to think I would have a more established exercising routine by the time that downhill occurs. <br /><br />I admire people like you. I cannot do that. I'm a lazy piglet.Sashanoreply@blogger.com
