Weighty Issues

These days I am quite fond of saying that I was born old ,wise,and fat! So, I guess I have been battling weight issues from day one!!

But that has not dampened my spirit of having a good time ( for me that is good food)!! And believe you me, I grew up convinced that I am pretty obese, which was not the case till few years back!!

See how psychology plays with your mind, since childhood it was drilled into my mind that was a little too healthy, I thought not otherwise,never even once!

The lesson learnt from this was that all good values must be taught to a child from day one , whatever you want to instil in your child, that is the right time. Of course all the psychologists have been telling the same, but human tendency is to learn by experiment, what say?

Another thing that now I am convinced about is that any change one wants to bring about, whether in self or otherwise, it has to come from within. I mean, the mind has to tell the body it’s high time something is done about extra weight! No amount of taunts, punishments, comments, advice can help until the mind is ready!!

Well, I have trained my mind to ensure that I walk few steps a day.. The journey has started on a slow note, am sure it would end on a high note..With some people it is a matter of starting trouble, and once they start there’s no stopping. Some are like rabbit, good start but tire fast..I believe in being a tortoise, slow and steady wins the race..
