A Bitter View

So far this month, 3 people have told me about my weight gain and how im not skinny anymore. A few peeps especially my family were saying how I'm looking like my father more and more with the weight im lost. The fact remains is that my loosing weight wasn’t intentional. Because of the stress, being broke, my acid reflux, teaching woes and choosing sleep over eating for energy caused me to lose what I had. I still saw myself as the same old me. Everyone saw differently, the first realization I was gaining weight was when I put on my jean last month and noticed when I sat down they were too tight. My belt which was worn to only keep my size 42 pants up now fits perfectly. I know the absence of cookies & Doritos and chocolate in general followed with more walking is what I need to get back to where everyone saw me as. Thanks to the free Showtime weekend i was able to see Supersize Me and it also got me to consider my weight and how to change my eating. Knowing how lazy i am fast food is something i have to break away from like ive said before in previous posts. I'm gonna start eating more Salads and veggies(ugh) now. The wrestler Tatanka had a dope diet plan that still sticks in my head to this day. Mon-Fri eat healthy. Especially No fried fatty foods, and then on the weekend eat what you want only to compliment that with exercise whenever possible. It sounds sensible enough and im gonna give it a shot. Yeah battling the bulges is gonna be a new goal to take on with the rest of what I have on my agenda. I'll just have to see what happens.
