5 Real stories of obesity

Story 1:

It was just a few years of our marriage and my husband lost interest in me. He was getting flirty will my friends and there were times when I thought of committing suicide. But then, one of my friends came to visit me and she was surprised to see that I was not what I was a few years back. I was suffering from obesity and emotional eating out of the pain of losing the heart of my husband had taken a toll on me. I tried to go through some of the weight loss diets, but then people around me started to tell me that it is not possible to lose weight. I left the routine in between. When she told me that obesity was the reason of the distance between me and my husband somehow I got the strength of trying the weight loss routine once again and this time with more energy. Now I had something to achieve and I actually achieved it. On this anniversary, my husband surprised me when he shared that we were to go for a trip to the same place where we went for honeymoon. This is my second honeymoon and I have made a new beginning of life.

Story 2:

I am 58 now, and just one year back I was not able to stand on my own feet. I was suffering from acute arthritis and my weight was about 90 kg. I left all the hope of life and was leading an idle life. I did not want to live any more but my husband was positive that I would be able to walk again. Today I can, thanks to the physical therapist who took physiotherapy sittings for me to make me strong enough to walk. But then he told me that it was the obesity that was taking toll on my arthritis. I started taking up meals with less calories and the physiotherapy worked on me. I was able to get up and then started doing regular workouts. Today, I have less joint pain. I have lost 10 kilos in last one year and every day I walk down to the market for buying things. This would not have been possible without my physiotherapist and my husband who became a ray of hope in my life.

Story 3:

I am married for last 5 years and could not conceive for a very long time. People were asking me the reason and some were even taunting me. I approached my doctor and she told me that most of my reports are good but the only problem is my belly fat. It was causing some sort of problem in my body and whole lot of problem in my life. I had already tried diet plans but most of them were so difficult that I had to stop them in between. My doctor asked me to try baby food diet and walk every day. I was asked to walk for 1 hour everyday and substitute one meal with baby food. Today I have lost my belly fat and guess what? I am seven months pregnant expecting to see my baby very soon.

Story 4:

I am the happiest man in the world today not only because that I have lost 30 pounds in last 1 year, but I could inspire my little son for taking care of his health. When I was in my school, I was the captain of the football team and I was slim. Then, the busy schedule of life with hectic office hours took all my concentration and I started taking junk foods and started visiting food joints regularly to save time on cooking. Then I got married and after one year our child was born. My wife was quite caring but I could not leave my habit of taking junk food. When my son was 2 years old, he was also started consuming these foods because he saw me doing the same. Both I and my son became obese. One of my doctor friend told me that obesity in child can be life threatening and then I decided to do something about that. I stopped taking junk foods and this kept my son away from it too. Now we both have a healthy weight and I am so glad that I could save my son from a possible danger.

Story 5:

I was a slim boy when I was in school. I took up a part time job in a food joint after the school and I got into the habit of taking those oily foods that were quite delicious too. I gained 60 pounds but it did not bother me because I did not care about any comment. When I was in the second year of my college a new girl joined in the first year. She was pretty and beautiful and I eventually became her friend. I was in love but then one day I heard her referring me as teddy to her friend. I was ashamed of my weight and thought that something needs to be done to get her heart. I got the inspiration of weight loss. I joined a gym and swimming and stopped taking foods which resulted into obesity. Today the girl is my wife and we are very happy together.
