Why My Weight Refused to Surrender - Page 2

As for activity, I fear that my physical education teachers scarred me early-on in life.   The experience was horrific and I remember feeling like I was in prison as a young girl, looking up into the ceiling of iron rafters as the perky teacher counted the sit-ups and endless standing windmills each and every day.  

Not only did I feel like I was in Holland, I longed to be blown away by the windmills– out of the stinky gym filled with pubescent girls and snooty rich girls – into the Great Outdoors where I could just sit and dream the day away.

At the time, I didn’t have any weighty issues.   Perhaps if I would have continued performing those endless windmills, I wouldn’t have ballooned into the sky.   Of course, hindsight is always 20-20.

Almost all weight loss plans recommend activity – as all healthy weight loss plans should.   However, when activity turns into things that fuel gold-medals (as well as rabid gym teachers), then the average dieter isn't going to stick to the over-sweaty routine.   Sweaty – good.   Over sweaty – stinky.   Stinky – sunken weight loss plan.   Sunken weight loss plan – weight gain.   Weight gain – not good.   Yes, it’s a vicious circle and it’s why Excessive Activity is one of the hidden trap doors that we talked about in our Prelude.

Keeping this in mind, The Shape of Things to Come recommends ‘sane’ activity – but more on this topic later when we’ll discuss how we can actually make activity time, fun time.   Yeah, yeah, yeah – I heard that, but everything worth anything always requires a bit of effort, right?

Activity or not, on those occasions when I experienced Weight Loss Success, more often than not I would let loose by celebrating.   Many times, I celebrated a few cupcakes and enchiladas too many. And when the weight began to edge back on, I would think, " I'm not going to worry about gaining a few pounds right now.   After all, I lost all my unwanted weight before and I know I can do it again."

Then I'd drop my Diet Yo-Yo and keep on skipping merrily along until that five-pound weight gain turned into a fifty-pounder.
