Hi (interested) readers,
I will be posting here more frequently now.
I've spent the last year learning a lot about my body and so, I decided to take some time off of blogging. However, as I lost weight and discovered newer, better and more effective methods of weight loss, the only thing people seem to be successful at losing is their mind due to their inability to lose weight.
The most common complaints are as follows:
"But I've completely stopped eating junk food"
"I jog for HOURS on the treadmill or out in the open"
"I haven't lost any weight on the scale! WHY?"
"I've lost hope- I walk for-like- hours and I'm still exactly where I stood a few months ago"
Though I can sympathize with such people, they need to understand this: THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND THEIR BODIES BECAUSE LOSING WEIGHT IS NOT ALL ABOUT EXERCISE AND DIETS. IT IS A COMMITMENT.
So, apart from sounding like the Hilton sisters every time they say "like" they have't really achieved much because they know practically nothing about their bodies, diets or about exercising.
Most people in Pakistan tend to think that by ditching junk food, carbs and fizzy drinks they will lose weight- something that morning shows (with people wearing clothes that make me believe that aspirin was made solely for those of us who cannot stand talk show hosts on various channels here) have been preaching for years.
While it's true that ditching such foods will help you lose weight, there's a lot more you need to do if you want to lose weight. Also, there are days when I gorge down 2 bottles of Sprite, 7 UP and junk foods but I know how to utilize what I eat so that I can continue losing weight despite my temporary break from my diet.
Generally, people in Pakistan do not.
1. The foods that we eat here are made in so much oil that even the smallest amount of oil can do much more damage than good.
2. Not many people here know how to exercise and to push their bodies. I've literally only come across 5 people who actually know what they are doing.
3. Jogging like crazy won't do you any good. In fact you can be prepared to see those tires on your stomach grow because, again, you're hurting your body more than you know by jogging for that long. I'd know because I've been down this road myself in the past.
4. If you want to "take aff thess shurt" and look good without clothes on, you have to do a lot more than what you already think is good enough for your body.
You're more than welcome to contact me on my email address if you want help (hmraja89@gmail.com) but I will be elaborating on this in another post very soon.
