Man Forty: Reflections from the Big Belly

The numbers on the scale are constantly changing and are fixed on the number 71.03. To be precise, this is not a conventional scale, but a body fat scale, but now it plays a role in the scale. I shook my head and said to my wife next to me, "Oh! Fat again. When will I be able to return to the thin face I was? "My wife gave me a blank look, didn't say a word, walked to the child's bedroom with her mobile phone, and then floated a word." I think you've lost confidence in yourself. Looking at the scales on the ground and touching my stomach with only one "abs", I can't help but reflect on the struggle with weight over the years.

Since the age of 35, I have spent a lot of money on my own weight control. The money was spent, and the equipment was bought back. However, what is still playing a role and value is left with this body fat scale and the sports bracelet on the hand.

When I first found that my body shape began to lose control, it was because I couldn't wear the formal clothes I bought before. The rising waistline has caused me to put a lot of formal clothes in the closet and fall to ashes. Every time you go out to give a speech or attend a slightly more formal event, you can only wear a slightly more formal casual dress. Every time, I laugh at myself in the name of the Internet industry, but the discerning person can see that this is prevarication. Thought his big belly had exposed everything.

I don't know when black has become the mainstream of my clothes. Even if some clothes are not black, they will be dark colors. The reason for this is that the dark color will make you look a little thinner, so that the belly is not so obvious. Since the body shape is out of control, I have particularly liked sportswear and loose clothes, the core is to wear comfortable and cover something.

When I first started to gain weight, I was still very motivated to lose weight. Discipline yourself to more than 10,000 steps per day. When the number of steps is insufficient, I still raise my legs at home or step in place to make up enough. Just looked at today's steps, less than 6,000 steps, really ashamed. Later, in order to ensure that I met the standard every day, I bought myself a sports bracelet so that I could record my steps at any time, after all, the mobile phone was not around all the time. As a result, it is still the current bad situation.

Hearing others say that running is the best way to lose weight, I bought a pair of running shoes that are not cheap. In the beginning, I used to go out for a lap once or twice a week. Although I don't run fast, I also understand the concept of fat burning heart rate. After running a few times, I felt that the impact of running outside was too great, especially when I wanted to run, the weather would sometimes not support it, so I bought a treadmill and put it on the balcony. The results speak for themselves, and now the treadmill is the most expensive drying rack in our home.

I don't know which day it will be on a whim, and I think I should be able to exercise in the office, so I matched my colleagues to buy a jump rope that can be connected to the mobile phone. I haven't jumped a few times, and now I have become a teaching aid for children to go to elementary school to achieve physical fitness tests. Fortunately, the model I bought was the same as the one I used for exams in school, and this small investment was an added bonus.

Touching his stomach, thinking about the process of his struggle with weight over the years, the whole person was killed and lost his armor, and he completely failed. Now that I think about it, the essential reason is that I am not self-disciplined enough. When high uric acid, fatty liver, and excessive weight become regular customers on the annual physical examination report, they still have a little motivation to do something. But it is often also a flash in the pan, and after two weeks it returns to normalcy. Every time I seem to be able to find a reason to comfort myself, now I think it is just "I can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour".

Although it is okay to mix now at work, this kind of self-discipline and non-persistence may be one of the essential reasons why I have not achieved greater growth. Although, forty is not confused, some men have lost the reason to continue to struggle. However, life can always be better as long as you keep trying, can't you?
