Would I fit into the blogging world or would I just be in the category of those that suck? Well there is only one way to find out, I am going to lift my chin high like my nose is bleeding and write!
I begin my journal of serendipity with the QUEST FOR THE PERFECT BODY!
Over the years, I have seen ladies groan with frustration at the sight of their bodies in the mirror. I have seen men’s self esteem plummet to nothing because they are embarrassed about their body. I had always wondered why they all were dissatisfied with their bodies and being miserable for nothing. I wouldn’t have been in so much of a hurry to judge them if I had known what the future held in store for me.
Not long after my observation, I
found out that the media, age, social class, gender and ethnicity play huge
roles in creating body dissatisfaction. At the time of this realisation, I was
already neck-deep in the same misery with my body.
The biggest problem for me at the
time was that I thought I could continue living on junk foods while I take lots
of slimming/weight loss pills and tea to give me the desired shape. Well, I thought
wrong and it took me five years to understand that the sooner I made changes to
my eating habits, the better for me. I realised that if I do not employ a
little ‘attitude adjustment’ and change my eating habit very quickly, I was
signing in for a life of depression and dissatisfaction.
So here I am two years after, a
semi-vegetarian (I eat fish, shrimps and lobsters) and a freak for healthy living.
I am not there yet but every day, I work towards achieving my perfect body. I
have come to realise that the perfect body isn’t the same for all; what is
perfect for me won’t be perfect for someone else. I love my current size 10
figure but I am working hard to get rid of the stomach that I acquired over the
years with all that junk food.
My friend/fitness coach, Vanessa has suggested a blog will
help me monitor my daily progress and make me more responsible as lots of people
will be able to share their ideas, stories and experiences with me.
Please post your comment and advice as I would love to learn
from anyone who has got an experience to share.
Note: Perfect to me is healthy and fit not skinny and anorexic.
wow this is good
