From obesity to starting of an unforgettable memory!

FROM OBESITY TO START OF AN UNFORGETTABLE 

 JOURNEY : BEGINING OF THE CHANGE 

It started when I was 8, as a lonely and shy girl who loved eating and watching cartoons. Growing up, I was heavier than most kids my age so....making friends or talking to other people was never my thing as I was always excluded from their groups and was always looked down upon, due to which I lacked self esteem, confidence and other developmental skills any child possessed.

I often went and cried to my mom saying how everyone teased and bullied me for my appearance.

Now that I'm a grown up I can handle such situations well but as a child hearing and experiencing all this everytime really broke and hurt me. My parents were very understanding and supportive, so growing up the only place I always felt at peace was at my house. Sometimes I would go and play with the children in my neighborhood but as usual I was always removed from the game since I was a slow runner. My parents were worried because If I continued to be timid I won't be able to cope up well or do well in the future. My dad loves playing badminton so he also wanted me to do something in badminton but as a child I really hated doing sports because I thought that for me doing and surviving in sports would never be possible
