I have to give myself a tap on the back because for 3 weeks now, I have been religiously going to the gym and actually eating right. I think I got the AHA moment when I had a very bubbly and chatty patient weeks ago. She was really friendly and she just brought light in the patient room; but when I brought her to the exam room, her look changed from jolly to concern and disgust and remarked, ” Will I fit in there?” as she cowered with embarrassment. I feel sorry for her because she is so aware of her size and I can also empathize because it is really difficult to maintain a healthy weight.
In my job, I encounter heavy patients and they motivate me now to really work hard on maintaining a healthy weight because it is a fact that obesity really does contribute to some of these patients’ health problems. But maybe, they are also like me who hates the gym and who sometimes uncontrollably eat a lot of good food and who maybe, just do not know what to do to be healthy… BUT THIS TIME, for two weeks now, I am really choosing to love myself y through exercise and eating healthy and this Quinoa with Eggplant and Tomato Stir Fry is good to start with…and if you fancy it, I have several Vegan Meal Collection than you can choose from…
