Then I read an article that said instead of asking “Am I fat ” I should be asking “Am I fit ” I had no idea a letter could make such a difference! Once I started thinking about fitness rather than weight, things began to change. Instead of saying “I want to lose three kilos”, I would say “I want to run two kilometres in eight minutes” or “I want to be able to do 30 push-ups”. Rather than cutting out the foods I enjoyed, I added healthy foods to my meals. I could still have a burger now and then, but I would add a salad or an apple.
Finally, I stopped comparing myself with actresses and models and looking for things that were wrong with my face or body. Instead, I made a list of the things I liked about myself. By being positive about myself and my body, I became both happier and healthier.

If I am by myself, I can listen to my favorite music on headphones while I exercise. I can also exercise with a friend to make it more enjoyable.
I won’t work for too long at a time. If I work for around 45 minutes then take a short 10-minute break, my work will be better and I will feel more relaxed.
