I went to see my doc yesterday primarily for my very irregular period and seemingly rapid weight gain. Nope, i am not pregnant. Lol.
This is the biggest I've ever been at 70.05kgs. My good doc informed me that my ideal weight is only 56kg (or was that 52kg?). Suspecting that I have far more (heaven forbid) serious issues other than my excess weight, she is subjecting me to a battery of tests. Something I deliberately tried to avoid in the past few years.
You see, i "feel" normal. If not for my bulging belly, flabby arms, frequent bouts with dizziness, acidity, migraine, ireegular period, and breathlessness in climbing up even short stairs or nearby distance, I could say I am "fit."
But i am all of those. Approaching 40s now, i am slowly accepting the fact that my body has changed. So did my state of health. And there are things I must seriously, seriously consider if i wish to remain fit and agile at 50, 60, or 70.
I start by being more wary of my diet: much lesser salt, more decreased sugar, lotsa veggies and fruits, and much much more physical activity.
I have no idea how to make this journey tenable. But i am sure as hell I wanna get there!
