No, it’s not easy.
Everything that’s worth having, isn’t.
I have been struggling with bloating since I was a kid and as I grow older, the issue is becoming more apparent and now each time after I eat, I feel really uncomfortable.
I’ve seen quite a number of gastro doctors and they all gave me similar advice; cut down on dairy and processed/oily food, refined sugar, alcohol, etc as these madderf*ckers are the contributing factors to my bloating problem.
They also told me to eat slower and to take smaller meals.
I never really listened to their tips and just did as I pleased, which most certainly had it’s consequences - me feeling extremely sluggish and unproductive when I consume certain foods.
I know eating tasty but unhealthy food can immediately put us in a better mood, but this instant gratification doesn’t serve me and my body in the long term.
So, I’ve decided to change up my meals to strike a more balanced diet which eliminates a big portion of foods that I really enjoy; desserts and beverages containing dairy.
To be honest, it’s a challenge. My body is currently fighting its own battle trying to adapt to this new pattern and I find myself feeling hungry and craving for sugary food!
Therefore, fruits are now my go to whenever I crave for something sweet!
The upside of this challenge is that, my stomach feels better and less bloated now so I hope to be consistent with this pattern!
I’m also on a journey to getting stronger and fitter through fitness!
A lot of people ask how I find motivation to exercise, especially on bad days.
Actually, all you need to do is to be stronger than your excuses! Make fitness a non-negotiable.
On lazy days, I force myself out of bed, change into my gym wear and blast my ‘Beast Mode’ playlist out loud! This usually does the trick for me!
As much as I try to commit to working out at least 5 times/week, I fail to adhere to it sometimes, but you know what, I never give up.
I just keep trying and trying.
Fitness is a lifelong commitment and I can assure you, only good things come out of it!
I want to be able to have the energy to continue to lead a healthy and active life even when I’m in my 60’s ✌🏾
