Ah, Summer…

WHY DO YOU MAKE ME SO FAT?

Of course, I was always kinda chubby, but not like this! I HAVE GOT TO LOSE SOME WEIGHT. I noticed this a few weeks into summer break. SO I’ve done some research, and there are several ways I can shed some pounds…

 

1.Exercise: Well, DUH. This one’s the obvious one. But I play basketball, but I walk to the trash can! Not enough. My uncle believes that concentration is everything, so when you exercise to lose weight, you will probably look better in less time. And the best part is, you can still eat food! I personally love food. I can’t really pull off a diet…Believe me I’ve tried. Anyway, the problem is time constraints…right? WRONG! Everyone has free time, they just don’t know it. Find that time of they day where you can fit in a half hour walk or jog. You’ll lose weight and be really healthy, too!

 

2. Pranayama:Here comes my bit of spiritual wisdom, also brought to me by my uncle and aunt. But it’s not only them that say it. My cousin, who is very pretty, but looked just a little too plump, she did it for three months, and she’s already the happiest person on earth! Well, what did she do? Pranayama is art of breathing. Visit this site- it’s the Youtube account of YogaYak, an online yoga studio! I don’t think these videos are complete, but look at her breathing exercise ones, and you can get the general idea of what you can do. Things like pranayama and yoga also calm your brain down, so you’ll end up being a calm and happy person. :]

 

3. “Diets”: My least favorite method. Yeah. Well, I think the best way to diet without being unnatural is to eat small quantities, and slowly get your body used to eating less, because that will happen. On the same token, if you’ve gotten thinner and all that, and you begin eating a lot again, you’ll go right back to square one. Also, watch the types of food you eat. Fruits everyday do wonders for your skin – you can see the difference in one day! They also taste delicious. And eat your veggies! That whole idea of vegetables is LEGIT. Completely true. Eating healtier will result in a healthier you. That’s the idea. So go to your nearest Whole Foods and stock up! Haha.

 

The whole deal with anything is that you need cocentartion of resolv. Otherwise, it can go up in flames, for sure.
