losing it the right way

OK, let me say this straight, losing weight?
not your thing ladies n gentlemen???

are you sure?? all lies isn't?
at least a piece of your heart must say go for it. right??
same goes to me of course..

but what actually the purpose of losing all the weight??

to some people, they might say to look gorgeous, to be slim and slender.


others might say because they are fat and being fat can lead to numerous dangerous diseases.

but to put it in a simple word, i would say most people want to lose some weight because they want to be HEALTHY.

health? what does it mean by health?? according to WHO, health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.

but why it is so hard to lose some weight? any idea?


They are numerous good and effective options to loss weight. But the key point is, it is always depends on yourself. If you really determine and persevere to lose some weight, it might be possible.

However, it is hard to lose some weight because losing weight often involves more than self-discipline, exercise and counting calories. Achieving your weight loss goals involves knowing about the effects of age, weight set point, and genetics.

Three Factors that Contribute to the Body Shape and Size

(and make weight loss difficult)

1. Age.

Most people some how round out a little as they get older, as a result of a decreased metabolism and less movement.

Menopause can cause women to suddenly gain weight, and both men and women find that they can't eat as much as they did a few years back without gaining a few pounds! This makes it hard to lose weight.

2. Set point and metabolism.

The set point of your weight is predetermined, which means that your body stubbornly clings to a certain amount of weight. For instance my set point went i am in high school is 45 kg, that I won't gain an ounce no matter what or how much I eat back then.

On the other hand, now when I am 20 years old, my set point is 52 kg no matter how hard i try to lose it to become 45 kg again.

Physiological forces can prevent weight loss. Though I know it's possible to be thinner than I am now because once upon a time I weighed less – but it was a real struggle staying at my lowest weight. Perhaps that's the secret behind set points: it's still possible to lose weight, but just a little more difficult.

3. Genetics.

Your body shape, weight, and size is affected by your genes, making it hard to lose weight.

Studies show that adopted children are most similar in body shape and weight to their biological parents.

You see examples all around you, every day, of people looking exactly like their parents or grandparents – for better or for worse. My mother back then before she got married to my father was instead slimmer and weighted much more less than she is now. I do believe that if I did not take safety measures as early as now, i might ended up follows her footstep sooner or later.

One last question, is there anything else that is more important than your health?? no isn't? so take control of your life now and do maintain a healthy lifestyle. ^_^

it's more than just a memory.

First and foremost, I am ashamed of my life right now because is it completely 180 degree disoriented from my life back in the high school.

Back in those days i strongly believe that I'm indeed having a healthy lifestyle.
Being the class monitor, together with all the extra co-curriculum activities that i join; the Taekwando club,the Nasyid club and my favourite among all, the KRS a.k.a school youth cadet which i am the president of the club as well as the captain for the marching squad, i manage to maintain quite an impressive healthy lifestyle. Moreover, I really enjoy outdoor activities such as jungle trekking, mount climbing, flying fox, and many more.

However, after i finish my high school and now entering the medical school, my lifestyle changed completely! I no longer spend quite some time doing all the outdoor activities. Instead, i can say that now my lifestyle is a sedentery lifestyle. In the morning, i wake up, go to classes til late evening, go back home, rest for a while, study at night and go straight to bed after that. Almost everyday my life pattern is like that.

Nowadays, i always try to make up all the bad habits that i had before. I try to find some time to exercise a little bit despite the busy schedule i have. I do hope i still can get back my healthy lifestyle like when i was in high school. This is because i strongly believe that there is no other thing that is more important and precious than health. isn't?
