Six months ago I posted my weight at 103kg. On the same post I mentioned that I will try to lose more weight. Unfortunately, again, I wasn’t able to do that. For the past six months I was in and out of the hospital due to stress related ailments. It’s just this month that I’ve decided to go take it slow and go back to healthy living. Why? Because, based on my doctors, especially my cardiologist, any more stress can kill me.
I soon realized that there are more to stress than just getting tired. It has a lot of deadly side effects such as:
- Work-related stress can kill, study finds
- Prolonged stress can lead to dementia
- Prolonged stress can shrink the brain?
…and there are more. Just try searching Google for “STRESS CAN KILL“.
Since I stopped working out and eating healthy six months ago I gained 5 kilograms of stress-induced fat. Work-life balance was almost non-existent.
So, here we go again, a reboot of my efforts to lose weight and be healthy. Customary before-photo follows:
So that’s what 60 lbs of extra weight looks like. Wish me luck.
