WEIGHT LOSS

Morning walks. Yes, most of us do this. Still there are people who religiously follow their routine. Come what may and they are on the track. Be it the hot summers or rains, the cold weather. No deterrent and no stoppage. These souls are there  walking walking and walking.

The reasons may differ from person to person, yet the objective is the same  — keep moving — keep walking. And believe me there are many benefits a walker tends to gain out of this exercise. Health benefits are there as we all know. Social networking is another major benefit. If one is open enough then u tend to make new frends and acquitances.Still some other benefits have been highlighted in that lovely movie– Jogger’s Park.

Well well. Come off it. I have an interesting thing to share with u all. During my morning walks i had been seeing a girl. Now please don’t jump to conclusions. I said –seeing. that is while in the park, daily i tend to notice a girl. Notice because i cannot (like all the other walkers) ignore this girl. Its due to her size. She was too fat and could barely walk. But yes, her determination was amazing. Daily at the fixed time, she was in the park and ignoring all the glances she walked and walked. From one circle of the park to three to ten to fifteen. The walking increased slowly and steadily. No change in routine, temperament. No side ward glances, but just concentration on her walking.

After returning from my outstation visit, i hit the track again after a few weeks. While crossing the tracks i noticed a familiar face. But i was not able to place it. On second thoughts i could make out. Yes the face was familiar but the person seemed new to me. No i was mistaken. it was the same girl. Now slim and trim after shedding all her weight.

What an achievement. Through Courage, conviction and commitment this girl has transformed her life. No drugs, medicines or slimming courses. Just  control on her eating habits and walking ___ walking and walking.
