5 reasons why I wanna decrease my sugar intake! ππ₯ππ°π₯€ Happy Sunday, my dear friends in this wonderful read dot cash universe :) I am so glad that everyone here is on their road to success. It is really true that if one perseveres, learns, and be determined, and has the dedication, success is just around the corner. You can achieve your goal, believing in yourself is the first step. True or true? I know I have listed some of my goals for the year and one of them is having a healthier lifestyle. I haven't started even one yet! Yeah, punish me if you must. But the other day, we went out to buy some treats and I had a cheat day (Every day is a cheat day for me lol) I bought a donut for myself. I felt something weird after eating it, I got dizzy and I felt sleepy, and some other sensations I couldn't describe. I could hear my conscience shouting at me, "See? I told you so!". So I'm gonna state the reasons why I had to cut the sugar off. The need to control my weight
Artificial sugars and sweeteners can make us fat if they're not being burnt and since I don't walk a lot or exercise, I am fat and I am sad about it. I am not yet obese, thank goodness but I will be anytime soon. I think it's gonna be a farewell to the cake, Milo drink, iced tea, soft drinks, and ice cream. But how could I live without them? For better health
Having a normal weight according to my height is healthy. I am a small woman, don't ask how small but I can't be like 60 kilos! I have to cut the sugar off or I might experience symptoms- if I am not having it already, of diabetes. I looked at my neck and armpit, they kind of get a little darker, a sign that my sugar is high. I had to act fast. To bring my confidence back
I never had a decent pic or a selfie since I gained a lot of weight. I feel so ugly. Sweating during running or jogging makes me feel sexy and beautiful, now I am just a bitter, ugly woman with a big baby pouch. I am proud of my pouch but not the extra layers of fat. Imagine, I could no longer fit some of my clothes. How could I be confident? So I could finally take a selfie
I love taking selfies from time to time, but how could I do that showing my double chin? Or my big tummy? I want to feel younger, fresh, and healthy but indulging in too much sugar's a hindrance to those dreams. Take me back to my sweet, old, sexy me lol. To be happier
Being fat with all of these chronic pains every day is torture and to be honest, I am kind of depressed. Perhaps having a healthier lifestyle will free me from this misery. I do think I can still eat sweets but in moderation and remember what I want to achieve to be happier and confident again.
I wanna have a body like this again, my friends. I wanna wear a dress again. I did eat a lot of sweets on this occasion but I didn't add more weight because I walk my way to work. I need discipline and the determination to really achieve my dream bod. Do you think I can do it? How about you? Have you started living a healthier lifestyle- eating consciously and exercising? I hope you did, if not, it's not too late to start :) Have a great weekend, my friends! Do something silly or adventurous today.

Till the age less than 20 our metabolism works properly and we don't gain weight. But after that we need exercises to make our look beautiful. Yeah proper diet is important.. β€οΈ BTW you are looking pretty ππ
Thank you my friend, I agree, we gotta exercise more when we age.
Di ka nag iisa sis, sa ngayon coffee lang talaga ang nawala sa akin, pero ang hirap tanggihan ng matamis. Coffee is life but chocolate is lifer.
Haha tama sis, chocolate is lifer talaga and food is lifest :D
Mostly it is all related to weight, well you can start jogging to loose weight, just one km everyday slowly slowly
I shall try walking this time, my friend.
Cheers to you sis as you do what you believe will make you happy :) And yes to lessening sugar on our diet :)
Thank you sis. I do believe that if you are healthier, you are happier :)
That's true sis, very true indeed
indeed when we do not pay attention to food intake can make us fat, especially foods that have high sugar content. but i'm really confused in this case because i really want to be fat and chubby that's why i often consume food like that and in fact i don't get fat. Is it because of heredity? but my sister is actually fat.. i'm confused but i don't think about it because i'm grateful for what i have.
I love your genes, wish I could have them! Don't wish to become fatter because there might be no going back lol :P
Hello Glesaa, yes sis you can do that. Let me support you from that and praying it will happen fast. While reading your article I felt like I'm reading my own story. I am fat also, I am 64 kgs in 4'9 height. I look like a dugong and it doesn't look good. Let me join you.
Thank you sis :) I think I look like a dugong too .
hahaha , so this makes us two dugong in this site. virtual hugs
Too much sugar intake will certain take one closer to the hospital therefore we must be moderate in all that we do when it comes to sugar consumption.
I agree, health is wealth.
Need to less my sugar in take to become it is in my bloodline to have diabetes.
While it's not yet too late :)
Moderation is the key to everything. I hope you achieve your goals in having a reduction in your sugar intake.
Thank you my dear, I will try to eat sweets moderately.
tara sis sabay tayo hahaha ang hirap ng hindi nalabas eh.. wala ng walking exercise :(
Tama sis, ang hirap na nasa bahay lang. Buti ngayon nasa level 2 na tayo nakakalabas na kami ng mga anak ko kahit sa neighborhood lang. Nadidepress ako pag ako lang magisa lumalabas kaya kain na lang ng kain :(
yan din prob ko.. pagnalulungkot ako kumakain ako para lang malibang haist
Sweets are not good for us. I hope you will be fit again and your desires will come true. Cute cousin.
Thank you my dear cousin. I hope to be stronger in avoiding them :P
Reduction of sugar intake is very necessary for sound health!
I agree, my friend. But the celebrations are home happened from time to time, it is hard to resist those yummy sweets :)
It's not just about sugar, it's about calories and a sedentary lifestyle. Here not all of us can boast of an ideal figure. Why should we? This site is for writersπ€ A little reassurance for you: If you feel comfortable in your body, don't pay attention to anyone! Tell yourself that you are the best and most beautiful person on the planet! And don't even say it, but believe it!!!! Sugar-(glucose we need, replace it with fructose if you are not allergic) is the energy of our brain, and for this platform, you still need to think, and a lot of it! If you want to get in shape a little, do it gradually.
Wow, such a good advise. Thank you very much, my friend :) I am the best there is :P I wanna believe that 100 percent but I really gotta live a healthier lifestyle :)
IF not so much sugar then you won't be as sweet as you are Glessa. YOu are beautiful no matter what you look like. We are not 21-year-old supermodels anymoreπ€£π€£π€£
Thank you po sir Ed, ang sweet naman. But I wanna be a 21 year old supermodel lol.
Of course you can. I also keep telling myself that I can do it, but I can't start. π€£ My weight is ok but I get tired quickly, I am not active and I eat a lot of chocolate. I know that needs to change. We'll make it, don't worry. The hardest thing is to start, then everything is easy. I have to tell you you're a real beauty and that is the only thing that matters! π
Thank you for the compliment, my friend. I love chocolates too lol. Starting is really hard.
Nku sis hirap tlga ako mgpapayat at ayoko din mgdiet ksi gutom is real kaya. Madali lng nmn pumayat pg stress hehehe. Joke!
Yeah sis, dati nung higschool inom lang ako ng calamansi juice every day papayat nako nyan
Masarap kya ang calamansi juice at nkkpayat tlga. Tamad ako mg exercise sis.
Proven and tested na talaga calamansi sis :)
Me too. I am not getting any younger so what I usually do is I drink tea inside of sugary drinks. I also do not put sugar on my choco drink.
