What does it feel like to be fat?

 

I was fat almost my entire life and it feels like hell.

I thought I was normal until I started to go to kindergarten and kids treated me differently than they treated others. They were calling me fat and hitting me and the worst of all was when we were having a nap in the afternoon, then other kids would get up from their beds and walk over me, which hurt when they would step on my stomach.

Then in elementary school they started to bully me immediately, they called me "bacon bomb" , "pig", "fattie", they would hit me,punch me,stab me with pins. Once one of the boys had wooden stick that was really sharp on top and he threatened to stab me with it so he was chasing me all the way to the toilet,where I locked myself so he couldn't reach me anymore.

Nobody ever wanted to sit next to me and when teacher said they have to sit next to me they hated it.

Sometimes boys would take my pencil box and play football with it. Once I had pencil box that I got with puddings so it had brand name on it so few boys said "It was required to send 3 empty packs of pudding to get that pencil box but Nina sent 100."

Whenever somebody farted in the class they would say it was me.

Whenever we would go on a trip I would be the only one sitting alone in the bus.

When we would play group games on physical education class, team leaders had to choose members of their team and of course I was the last one chosen.

At age 11 I enrolled in karate class and there was one girl who was hitting me very hard and she would say she's doing that because I'm fat and while she was hitting me she was saying things like "you fattie" or "stupid fattie".

Once around Easter time one girl looked at my fat legs and said " We are going to cook your leg for Easter". The teacher heard her and she didn't say anything, she just uncomfortably looked at me and smiled.

On the streets people would also laugh at me and scream insults.

In high school it didn't get any better. At first I thought I befriended one nice guy but later I found out he was talking nasty stuff about me behind my back.

People from my class would stand in groups and talking and when I wanted to join them they would say "Nobody invited you." or "You are not welcome." At that time it was popular to have blogs so I had one too and one girl from my class was commenting nasty things on my posts,like "you're fat" or "just continue filling yourself up with sweets".

One time I saw one girl from my class on the street and asked her where she was going and she replied: "To see someone you will never have." (meaning boyfriend)

When teacher told one girl she would have to sit next to me during classes from now on she started to cry and the other girl came to comfort her and she said: " I know how you feel when you have to sit there."

Boys on school hallways and outside of school used to make pig sounds or scream: "Babe give me your number" when I was passing by and laugh.

Winters were always the worst, especially before Christmas and New year when they were using firecrackers; then I was afraid I wouldn't make it home alive after school.If there was snow they would throw big ice blocks they would find under the snow at me.

Once two girls at class were talking random stuff and one of them said " I wouldn't feel disgusted to drink water from the same bottle after someone." and the other said " Even after Nina?!" and first girl said "Welll...maybe."

If someone from my class had a birthday party they would invite everyone but me.

When I was around 16 or 17 I had a friend who was normal weight and she always used to have boyfriends and all guys liked her and sometimes I would ask her what some of the guys she was friends with thinks of me and she would tell me how they think that I'm disgusting and ugly and they wouldn't even touch me with gloves on their hands. Once we were taking a walk and saw two guys we knew and one of them told me " You are pretty" and I said "Thank you" and as soon as they left my friend said "He was just kidding when he said you were pretty."

In college things got a bit better, people there weren't bullying me for my weight anymore. But enough damage was already done and I'm not able to function socially as normal people do. I have hard time making friendships and getting into relationships and if I do get into one I'm extremely jealous and constantly scared the person I'm in a relationship with will find someone prettier than me and break up with me.

Also,one of my friends who is very good looking posts photos with other friends on Instagram but not with me, probably because she's embarrassed.

During the last couple of years I lost a lot of weight and I'm doing better but the damage that has been done to me is beyond repairable.

This is me now,still not perfect weight but I'm doing much better.

What are the benefits of keto diet?

 

 

Over the past several years, I have performed in-depth research on different diets that are popular for their claimed health-boosting and weight-loss benefits. The keto diet is among them.

To give you a quick overview, the keto diet is short for the ketogenic diet. In general, the keto diet is composed of 75% good fats, 20% protein, and 5% carbs. There are a few variations of the keto diet (like high-protein keto diet), but this is generally the standard macronutrient ratio needed in order to achieve ketosis.

Ketosis is the key to the keto diet. Ketosis is a normal metabolic process characterized by increased ketone production. Ketones are a form of energy that is alternative to carbohydrates. Carbohydrates break down into glucose, which are easy for the body to use, but can also be problematic when over-consumed, like they are in the Standard American Diet (SAD).

To understand if the keto diet is considered healthy, first, let’s take a step back to understand ketosis - since misunderstandings are often the root of the criticism of the keto diet.

This is what I have found in my research about the potential health benefits of the keto diet with links to relevant research:

1.      Promotes weight loss: While a low-fat diet is often recommended for weight loss, but research shows that a high fat, moderate protein, and low-carbohydrate diet is much more effective at promoting weight loss, thanks to the beauty of ketone bodies.

2.      Lowers risk factors for disease: These risk factors include high blood sugar and insulin levels, high cholesterol, and high triglycerides, among others.

3.      Protects from muscle loss: a very low carbohydrate diet with adequate amounts of protein are likely protective against the loss of muscle mass.

4.      Lowers the risk of type 2 diabetes: Excess fat is linked to metabolic disorders like type 2 diabetes, and weight loss spurred by the keto diet can help to lower risk factors..

1.      Helps to control type 2 diabetes and other metabolic disorders: If you have diabetes, you may be turning to the ketogenic diet as a way to control your insulin and glucose levels. Early research shows that the ketogenic diet can help you significantly improve insulin sensitivity levels. One study even shows that some diabetes patients were able to stop taking their diabetes medication altogether while on the keto diet.

2.      May help slow tumor growth for certain types of cancer: Early research shows that a calorically-restricted ketogenic diet is an effective alternative therapy for malignant brain cancer). Since high levels of circulating glucose in the blood are needed for tumor growth, the glucose-reducing effects of the keto diet help to slow tumor growth.

3.      Improves symptoms of Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease: The ketogenic diet may help to reduce the symptoms and slow the progression of degenerative brain diseases like Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.

4.      Helps treat factors causing polycystic ovarian syndrome (POS): POS is the most common cause of infertility among women. One of the aggravating factors of POS is high levels of insulin. The ketogenic diet can help reduce insulin and glucose levels in the blood as a dietary therapy for POS.

5.      Boosts recover from brain diseases: Initial animal studies show that the keto diet may boost the recovery of young people who have experienced traumatic brain injuries).

6.      Reduces the severity of acne: One of the factors that can increase your risk of acne is high insulin levels in the blood. Since the ketogenic diet doesn’t allow you to eat sugar or processed foods, which up insulin levels, it may help to improve the appearance of acne.

For most people, the ketogenic diet could offer significant health benefits.

The two main worries of health and nutrition specialists are the following:

1.      People follow the keto diet without consulting a specialist first

2.      The keto diet has not been around long enough to understand its long-term effects

 

 

There are logical responses to both of these concerns and they are directly connected. Research, even if it is relatively new, is on the side of the ketogenic diet. But it is true that an unbalanced keto diet (or any unbalanced diet, for that matter) could have detrimental effects.

For that reason, it is important to:

1.       Get a general medical check-up to make sure you are in good health to follow a restrictive diet.

2.      Consult with a registered dietician who is a specialist in the ketogenic diet to guide you on how to build a well-balanced ketogenic diet that fills all of your nutrient needs.

Once you check these off of your list, you will very likely be able to reap the benefits of the ketogenic diet for your health.

11 Proven Ways to Lose Weight Without Diet or Exercise

 Sticking to a conventional diet and exercise plan can be difficult.

However, there are several proven tips that can help you eat fewer calories with ease.
These are effective ways to reduce your weight, as well as to prevent weight gain in the future.

Here are 11 ways to lose weight without diet or exercise. All of them are based on science.

1.Chew Thoroughly and Slow Down:
Eating your food slowly can help you feel more full with fewer calories. It is an easy way to lose weight and prevent weight gain.

2.Use Smaller Plates for Unhealthy Foods:
Smaller plates can trick your brain into thinking you're eating more than you actually are. Therefore, it's smart to consume unhealthy foods from smaller plates, causing you to eat less.

3. Eat Plenty of Protein:
Adding protein to your diet has been linked to weight loss, even without exercise or conscious calorie restriction.

4. Store Unhealthy Foods out of Sight:
If you keep unhealthy foods on your counter, you are more likely to have an unplanned snack. This is linked to increased weight and obesity. It’s better to keep healthy foods — like fruits and vegetables — in plain sight.

5. Eat Fiber-Rich Foods:
Viscous fiber is particularly helpful in reducing appetite and food intake. This fiber forms gel that slows down digestion.

6. Drink Water Regularly:
Drinking water before meals may help you eat fewer calories. Replacing a sugary drink with water is particularly beneficial.

7. Serve Yourself Smaller Portions:
Larger portion sizes have been linked to obesity and may encourage both children and adults to eat more food.

8. Eat Without Electronic Distractions:
People who eat while distracted are more likely to overeat. Paying attention to your meals may help you eat less and lose weight.

9. Sleep Well and Avoid Stress:
Poor sleep and excess stress may imbalance several important appetite-regulating hormones, causing you to eat more.

10. Eliminate Sugary Drinks:
Sugary drinks have been linked to an increased risk of weight gain and many diseases. Your brain doesn't register liquid calories as it does solid foods, making you eat more.

11. Serve Unhealthy Food on Red Plates:
Red plates may help you eat fewer unhealthy snack foods. This may be because the color red triggers a stop reaction.

The Bottom Line:

Many simple lifestyle habits can help you lose weight. Some have nothing to do with conventional diet or exercise plans.
You can use smaller plates, eat more slowly, drink water and avoid eating in front of the TV or computer. Prioritizing foods rich in protein and viscous fiber may also help.
However, it’s probably best not to try all these things at once. Experiment with one technique for a while, and if that works well for you then try another one.
A few simple changes can have a massive impact on your weight over the long term.
First of all, check with your doctor (blood tests) that everything is fine.
