Story: An embarrassingly hurtful comment from my teacher was the catalyst. He called me “Precious”— as in the fat black girl from the movie. I also promised my mother while she was on her deathbed in June 2009 that I would lose weight. But the teacher’s comment sparked me into action .I started by making small changes. I’m a creature of habit and don’t respond well to big, immediate changes! I started walking on my treadmill about four times a week. Also, I made changes in my diet. I began eating grilled foods instead of fried, drinking water instead of soda, measuring foods/paying attention to portions instead of eating with wild abandon.
Weight Loss Tip: YOU have to make the decision that getting healthy, losing the weight and making this a life change is MORE IMPORTANT to you than being unhealthy, continuing to be overweight and staying the same.
