How I did it/Cum am reusit

  

Astazi va povestesc despre cum am inceput sa slabesc, ce fac si cum fac.

Cand vorbim de pierdere in greutate, dieta si miscare, totul porneste din inima. Trebuie sa-ti doresti din tot sufletul chestia asta. O cantitate enorma de ambitie, care tu singur ti-o construiesti. In primul rand trebuie sa ai un element cheie care sa te faca sa-ti doresti aceasta schimbare, gen o haina care nu mai intra pe tine, un eventiment la care trebuie sa arati bine, sau in cel mai rau caz, boala. Tot timpul aveam problema de a-mi gasi haine. Datorita soldurilor mari, mi s-a parut aproape imposibil sa imi gasesc blugi faini. In anul 3 de facultate aveam 85kg. Nu ma suportam, ma uitam in oglinda cu scarba, totusi nu am facut nimic. Dupa nenumaratele crize de fiere, am decis ca ma pun pe dieta si miscare. Zis si facut, am inceput sa mananc doar legume inabusite cu gratar de piept de pui, fara sucuri, dulciuri. Mi-am facut abonament la Spinergy Oradea, care era in spatele blocului (cu cat mai aproape, cu atat mai imposibil de gasit motiv sa nu ma duc). Incet, incet am inceput sa slabesc si de la 85 de kile am ajuns la 75, insa m-am mutat din Oradea in Fuerteventura, unde mi-am petrecut cele mai frumoase 3 luni. Desi nu aveam ocazia sa fac miscare(sincer nici nu am vrut, nu exista "nu pot" numai "nu vreau"), am continuat cu alimentatia sanatoasa si inotam zilnic la piscina casei. Cand am venit acasa in August, m-am cantarit si eram super incantata de ce vad, 66kg! M-am ambitionat si mai tare, si m-am pus pe un regim vegetarian, si in noiembrie cantarul imi arata 62kg. M-am inscris la Tae Bo. Am inceput sa lucrez, apoi...am esuat, am reinceput alimentatia standard de a manca prostii (snitel+cartofi, paste cu carne,etc). Efectul yo-yo...69-70kg...iar. Bravo, foarte frumos din partea mea. Mi-a fost greu sa reincep regimul, miscarea, am devenit comfortabila. Toamna asta am avut licenta, asa ca nu am avut timp sa ma duc la sala (nu am vrut :) ), dar mi-am propus ca dupa licenta imi schimb stilul de viata radical. Zis si facut, inca din August (inainte de licenta) mi-am schimbat alimentatia (Am scris despre asta in postarea de ieri), iar din 1 Septembrie m-am apucat de sala. M-am obisnuit sa mananc sanatos si am ajuns sa ma duc la sala cu drag. Ma masor si ma cantaresc la fiecare 2 saptamani, si ma tot mir cat de "frumos" sar jos kilele si centimetrii. Azi am 57kg si pot intra intr-un magazin si imi gasesc hainute frumoase.  Sunt foarte multumita de ce vad, ma motiveaza, si da, ii adevarat ca "munca grea se rasplateste". Iubesc ce fac. Am invatat sa imi iubesc corpul, si sa imi urasc colaceii, burtica si tot ce "nu apartine de corpul meu" si ma voi lupta in continuare sa le exorcizez. Zi de zi imi propun o noua provocare.

Today I share the story of how I started losing weight, what do I do and how I do it.

When it comes to weight-loss, diet and exercise, it all comes from the heart. You have to want it with all your heart. You need a huge amount of ambition, which you have to build up alone. First of all you need a key element that makes you want to change yourself, for example a piece of clothing that doesn't fit you anymore, you want to look great at an event, or the worst case, disease. I always had a problem in finding clothes. Due to my wide hips, I found it almost impossible to find and wear nice jeans. In my senior year of college, I weighed 85 kilos. I hated myself, and looked in the mirror disgusted, still haven't done anything to change it. After numerous gallbladder crises, I decided to start a diet and exercise. The diet consisted of grilled chicken and steamed veggies, and I made a month pass at Spinergy Oradea (it was in the back of my flat so I couldn't make any excuses not to go). Slowly I started losing weight and from 85 kilos I got to 75, but I moved from Oradea to Fuerteventura, where I've spent the best 3 months. Although I didn't have the occasion to work out (and I didn't even want to, there is no such thing "I can't" just "I don't want to"), but I continued to eat healthy and I swam daily at the house's swimming pool. After I came home and weighed myself, I was very happy seeing that I had 66 kilos! I gained more ambition and started a vegetarian diet, and by November I weighed 62 kilos. I signed up for Tae Bo. I got a job...then I failed, I took up my old eating habit (schnitzel + potatoes, pasta + meat, etc.) Yo-yo effect...and again 69-70 kilos. Congrats! Very nice of me. It was hard to start dieting and to start doing exercises again, I got comfy. I had my license exam this autumn, so I didn't have time to go to the gym (and, again, I didn't want to), but I decided that after my exam, I'll make a complete change in my lifestyle. Said and done! In August I started dieting and from 1st of December I started going to the gym. I got used to eating healthy and I started going to the gym with pleasure. I measure and weigh myself every two weeks, and I am amazed of how the kilos and centimeters are "falling off" me. Today I weigh 57 kilos and I can finally go into a store and get myself pretty clothes. I am satisfied with what I see, it motivates me, and yes "hard work pays off"! I love what I do. I learned to love my body and to hate everything "that doesn't belong" there, and I will continue exorcising them. Every day I come up with a new challenge.
