My parents would not let me go to school that morning. “Why not?” I argued. “I have exams. I have work in Spanish class that I can’t miss!” My mother gave me a sad look. “You have to get a checkup (身体检查),” she explained. I screamed, “NO!” My father pulled me over to the couch. “Alison,” my father said in a tone that was quiet but powerful. “You’re in the state of malnutrition (营养不良). And you know that. You can have all in the world, but if you don’t have your health, you have nothing.” For some reason, I believed him. I hadn’t wanted it to be this way.

I was a girl who didn’t like doing sports but was fond of snack food. I weighed 50kg at my age of 14. Most of the time, I avoided parties with my friends, afraid of how ugly they would think I looked. One day, I found a slim girl on TV was so attractive that I wanted to look like her. I forced myself to do exercise and started going on a diet for a good-looking body shape. During the summer, I did weekly weigh-ins (称重) and kept a strict diet. I memorized the calories of almost everything that I may eat. My only goal was to lose weight. Later, when it became too cold to run outside, I restricted my calories even more to make up for not being able to burn them.

Gradually I lost my weight a lot. But things turned out to be worse. My hands were especially dry, peeling and wrinkled. My sister called them old people’s hands. Once, I went shopping with my mom.While we waited in line to pay for our items, I felt I was going to faint (昏厥). I felt dizzy and standing was getting harder and harder.

Incidents (发生的事情) like the one in the store were in my thoughts as my parents had a talk with me that morning—the morning when I refused to see the doctor regularly.

3 . Weight loss doesn’t happen just by turning down dessert. Here, three women share the biggest motivators in their weight-loss journeys and the simple changes they made to actually achieve their health goals.

Alyssa Greene

The stress of starting college and continuous late nights caused Alyssa Greene to develop an unhealthy relationship with her body. Though she exercised, she didn’t pay much attention to her diet and her overall health until she realized a change had to be made. Over the next 2.5 years, she self-educated about nutrition and learnt what and how much to eat to get the results she wanted.

Today, Greene has lost 50 pounds and relies on self-discipline as her key motivator. “I do what I want for me, no one else,” she says. “For people who have a hard time making a lifestyle change because of family or friends or a significant other, it really boils down to discipline.”

Tanisha Commodore

For years, Tanisha Commodore left no stone unturned when it came to weight loss strategies. After trying countless workout programmes and weight-loss diets, the desperate influencer began entertaining the idea of going to Mexico for weight-loss surgery when her friend happened to recommend a special diet. Over eight months, Commodore lost 80 pounds. “You didn’t put it on overnight, so don’t expect to lose it overnight,” she notes.

Denita Elizabeth

At one point, Denita Elizabeth weighed over 250 pounds and couldn’t remember what it felt like to be healthy. Having made up her mind to make a change, Elizabeth signed up for a SoulCycle membership. Today she’s lost 100 pounds. “Not only had my strength increased, but my whole body composition changed,” says Elizabeth. “Remember: you need to develop discipline and commitment for the moments when you don’t feel like it.”

5 . Lose Weight in a Healthy Way

If you’re not fat, don’t lose weight. If obesity affects your health, you can lose weight in a healthy way. Hundreds of weight-loss programs promise quick and easy weight loss. However, the foundation of successful weight loss remains a healthy, calorie-controlled diet combined with increased physical activity.     1     Consider the following for weight-loss success.

●Set realistic goals. It may seem obvious to set realistic weight-loss goals. But do you really know what’s realistic? Set a goal of losing a little weight at a time.     4     Generally, you can achieve the goal through a lower calorie diet and regular physical activity.

●Enjoy healthy foods. Adopting a new eating style that promotes weight loss must include lowering your total calorie intake.     5     One way you can lower your calorie intake is by eating more plant-based foods—fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
