2.Underline the words and phrases to show similarities and differences:
I always wanted to look like the slim girls on TV even though I knew that it was impossible. I worried about my weight and tried every new diet I read about online. I tried no-fat, low-fat, 5: 2, only bananas, no bananas—I almost went bananas, too.
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.

Now, I share my change of health conditions with you.
Because I liked eating junk food and disliked working out regularly, I put onweight easily. As a result, I was out of breath when I walked upstairs. I felt tired all day. When I consulted a doctor, he advised me to take a balanced diet as well as lose weight I had no other choice but to accept his advice. From then on I worked out every day and cut the junk food out. Half a year later, I became slim again and I feel energetic all day now.
From my experience, I have learned that a balanced diet and working out make a difference to our health. Not only should we eat nutritionally balanced food but also work out regularly.
