Annyeong readers ! It's been a while since the last post.
Well, we, the dieters, who are dieting, and who are currently in our final year and need to face the final exam, and who are currently busy with a bunch of assignments and activities REALLY NEED A LOT OF ENERGIES. I write this article, because I'm currently in this kind of situation. I was dieting and I did lost about 6 pounds in my first 2 weeks, then after losing weight.. I needed to prepare a lot of things for my final semester exam and my Multimedia practical exam, since I'm schooled in a Vocational School and majoring in Multimedia. At first, I felt that I could really do this.. dieting while preparing my coming exams. I was really dense.. I was afraid that I would gain my pounds back. Then I kept dieting. Until then I got really dizzy and got really sick. On normal days, I usually prepared and cooked my own meal, I was in diet but I get balanced food and enough nutrition to pass my days it was because I had enough time to do it all . But on my preparation days, I got really busy I need to wake up at 5 A.M had a lot of activities, organization meetings, then leading some all of my group projects, and attending all Christian communio gatherings, after those crazy things I needed to do my homeworks, creating concept of my Multimedia projects and do it ASAP a.k.a I needed to stay awake until at least 2 freaking A.M !!! That's crazy right ? I had no time to exercise. I once forced myself to do 1000 jumping rope jumps like usual and do some dance routines. I thought my mody would be able to endure it. Imagine that you need to do a lot of activities, with no time to prepare meals and skipped them, because you are really scared of gaining some pounds back. My mom is such a worrywart (in a good way) she kept telling me that I need to take care of my body because She once was a bullimian. I honestly hate it whenever She kept giving me 2 big portions of rice in a plate with a lot of side dishes. When I saw that I saw C-A-R-B-S ! and It was really creepy. I tried to find excuses to skip meals. I almost be an anorexian I guess. Until when I got sick, I finally realized, that I need to put God, and my body first before what my subconscious mind wants. I need to set my priority.. it's okay to gain some pounds back.. because we probably can lose it.. but when your body gets sick because of your stubborn behavior it needs lots of efforts to recover again.. and when you fail on your study just because you wanna be skinny like a Paris Fashion Week models you might regret it in the future. I can say that I'm sick of being sick. I was really scared whenever I ate normally again, but then I enjoyed it, and I didn't gain any additional pound, I kept on my current weight 166 lbs. Don't be afraid, Don't be worried, as a Christian, sometimes I forgot to put His Words first in all my actions.. When I got sick I guess it was God's way to tell me that I need a rest from this diet, I need to prepare my exams for Him ( Col 3:23), and I don't need to be paranoid about my body, why ? He created this universe from nothing, do you think it's hard for Him to help you losing some pounds ? He could do big things.. why don't you just believe in Him ? ask and you'll receive.. :) ( Read Phil4:6-7, John16:24). Even though people nowadays don't really believe in God.. He does exist.. and He's seeing me and you right now. Accept Jesus Christ to enter your heart, and you have a right to ask Him what you want, because after you accept Jesus in your heart, you're considered as a legal Child of Him. Ask Him to help you to lose some weight or to maintain your weight. Don't be shy or think that won't be heard and answered by Him. Faith ( Heb 11:1). Do your diet to make your body better.. not to crash your body.. :) I regretted my stupid and obsessive act back then.
Good luck on your exam ! ^^
