Did I get your attention on my title? If not, for sure I know my article is a little bit boring, probably this about myself and what can you get from it right? Anyway, I might as well get along and start doing my article before ranting. You read it right, "SKINNY" what implies you when you see or hear this word? Of course obviously it means thin, fitted, lacking sufficient flesh and more, so technically this SKINNY thingy was related to myself. Warning! This story is about my personal life so if you find it not interesting in this introduction thank you in advance! Hehe, care to hear what's this all about? So let's get rolling and get this story of mine.
I know there are very few people here that know me but not personally, they meet me on other platforms, become friends and see some of my photos, while others, I just recently met them here in read.cash. So I'm telling this because it's about my physical appearance, they have seen what I look like and what I am in real life. 24 years of age, height was around 5'5" and the weight was always 50kg. Imagine that I'm already 24 but I'm just weighing 50 kilos, what the hell happened? Well let's continue and talk about that. This is the problem that I always ask myself, why am I like this? Almost everyone that I knew gained weight and had some changes in their physical look from my classmates in highschool, childhood friends, churchmates but here I am looking the same as before.
Seeing myself like this made me a little bit of frustrated, every time I saw a new friend or an old friend or a classmate they will say like this, "Ohhh Aga kamusta ka na ganun pa rin ahh di nagbabago payat ka pa rin kelan ka tataba?" - (Filipino language, you can translate it), and this is one good example of what others may say about me. I know my eating habits and seriously I ate a lot but my problem was why am I not gaining weight? Why are fats afraid to sprout in my body? I was totally confused and consulted a doctor about this, luckily I had a health card that's why all of the expenses in the hospital were free. I had a physical exam, asked if my family had a health history issue, even got a blood test and after all the treatment done I was normal and didn't have a problem but still why am I like this as I asked the doctor. The doctor provides me with a supplement and a weight gain drink, and also gives a food guideline on what I will eat. Have you heard or know about Appeton Weight gain? It is a milk drink that has a high protein formula which is clinically proven to increase weight of one's individual. I purchased one that is 900g, it was effective and really heavy in your stomach, the only problem was the maintenance and it was expensive that's why I stopped it. I tried to follow the alternatives that the doctor suggested to me which is to workout at the gym, I tried it once but I can't manage it properly, I only went to gym once but cannot do a follow up, that's why I'm still like this.
I can only blame myself why I'm still like this, I worked overtime almost everyday and went from one place to another, that's why my body was worn out and didn't have the time to gain hehe. Others advised me don't overwork and also tried going to the gym to workout, it might be the best solution for my skinny problem. I want to try but I can't manage, but maybe sooner or later because it will be the last option for me and I will try to change my lifestyle. The only advantage I got from this was I'm still looking young but at the same time others thought of me as teen which was kind of annoying sometimes.
I may be skinny today, skinny tomorrow but skinny forever? it's a big no no no, I'll try to help myself if I want changes and also follow what the doctor had to say to me, I'm healthy which is good but still I want to gain more weight and fats if possible. Next time I had an Annual Physical Examination my BMI would not be underweight anymore, I wish hehe. This ends my article for today, even though it's boring, I hope you finished it by the end, if you have suggestions or any comments feel free to drop by! Thank you for your time reading!
Maybe you should add more protein to your diet. Buti ka nga pumapayat tapos nag work out pa, ako, I do work out but can't see the results of it due to some hormonal issues. If you want fats, I can send some... charot!
Honestly, try protein shakes and eating more lean foods, it might help. Do not overthink of it much, maybe it's your metabolism too. You're still young and you can still do plenty of things.
