Lose 16 Pounds, Return to Youthful Figure from Stubborn Belly! Maintain a Positive Mindset, Weight Loss is Easy!
a transformative experience from being overweight to fit
I was a chubby girl since childhood, and when I graduated from high school, my weight was 138 pounds. I’m a petite girl of 1.5 meters. This weight is astronomical. I just kept getting fatter and fatter until college.
During my doctoral studies in the United States, there were many people around me who were fatter than me. I didn't even feel it. So I didn't have any feelings.
I didn't want to lose weight, I just wanted to do something positive, otherwise I would fall into a slump.
I was forced to change my living environment, so I found a Taekwondo gym and started training. At the beginning, my physical fitness lagged behind, and I could only do a few push-ups, and I couldn't finish a class. But gradually I started to get better.
In a year, I lost 30 pounds. At that time, I realized how unhealthy I had been, and I realized that there were so many beautiful clothes I could wear.
Later, I started working in the United States, and the professor system in the United States was very stressful, so I ate whatever I could afford. I didn't have time to exercise. So I got fatter and fatter.
But I didn't have time to think about getting fat. After two and a half years, I was 160 pounds, and I realized that my body was getting worse, so I joined the Taekwondo gym for the first time thanks to the introduction of my friends.
The first phase was very effective, and I continued to participate in the next two phases, and I successfully lost 109 pounds.I was elected as an outstanding student in many phases. However, as I became slimmer, my requirements became stricter. It was almost to the point of being demanding.
During the third participation in Taekwondo, my relaxed mentality couldn't be adjusted, and I almost couldn't continue after the third week. I hid from the coach and weighed myself every day, which was very depressing. So I decided to take a break after the third camp.
It's 2019, and due to huge changes in my work and life, I didn't exercise for a whole year. And because of the stress, I almost had to drink something to help me sleep. So I became 140 pounds at the end of 2019, and I had to return to the Taekwondo gym.But this time before I participated, I had made up my mind. This phase was about keeping a relaxed attitude and losing weight easily.
Don't go to extremes, and you can still get a good figure.
Many people say that if they don't have time to exercise, they should eat healthily; if they eat unhealthily today, they should move around tomorrow. But I was exactly the opposite. If I had a good workout today, I would have the motivation to try to eat healthily. If I didn't have time to exercise, I wouldn't have the motivation to eat healthy meals.
So I put a lot of pressure on myself. I was afraid that I would miss a workout, and I was afraid that I would eat something wrong.
So after six weeks, if there were any unexpected events in the middle, I was exhausted. So this time, I reminded myself every day,
It's easy to say, but it's not easy to do. I hid my scale and gathered my attention. When I was unbalanced psychologically, I immediately communicated with my coach. Vivi and Xuan Xuan were very patient. This is why I think I'm very lucky.
In the Taekwondo family, there is warmth everywhere. And the final result proved that if you keep your mind relaxed, losing weight will be easier.I broke up with my unhealthy self.
During the camp, as a veteran, I had some advantages, such as food preparation, which was not as chaotic as the first time I participated in Taekwondo.
The key is to keep summarizing. When I was prone to deviate from the track, when I wanted to eat snacks, and when I ate too much, etc.For example, if I didn't drink enough water, I wanted to eat something, thinking I was thirsty. So water must be kept in a place where I can easily see it. And if I ate too late, I would stop eating half of the meal and send a picture to Vivi to check in or watch a video. This gave my brain some time.
In the morning, when I had a short time, I usually fried a lot of green vegetables and cooked them hot. And so on. Just keep summarizing and finding tricks. In terms of exercise, there is only one word: “”.
Don't make excuses. I remember when I first participated, I wanted to run 30-45 minutes, so I would run 30 minutes, which includes the one-minute increase from slow to fast. So actually, I didn't run enough.
This time I participated in Taekwondo, I wanted to be more self-disciplined and try to run the full amount. I hate running very much, although it's a torture every time, but I think an extra 15 minutes is really different. I don't want to say anything. Do one thing to perfection. The physical changes will come with it. I feel stronger and more energetic, and I'm happier. Let's see how much I changed,30-4530
