Question

I hate being overweight. My husband said he didn’t mind, but I knew he still hoped I had a beautiful body. Everything from my waist(腰部) to my legs was overweight. Finally, just after Christmas last year, I decided that something had to be done.

I met Dr. Wallace, and she told me I had to stop eating fast foods. It was very hard for me because I was eating them three of four times a week：pizza，hamburgers，whatever I could get. But I said to myself at the start that I would try my best to do it—and I did. I even gave up the booze—something I used to have two glasses of it with dinner.

My best friend, Rachel Waterman, said I had to walk 10,000 steps every day. That was very hard for me at the beginning. I was used to driving everywhere, but I started to walk everywhere instead. I walked in the morning before work，and I usually took a walk in the park with my husband after work. Now I never go to bed until I’ve done my 10,000 steps.

Six months has passed, and I made it. Last week, my husband bought me an MP4 as a gift.  the weight is wonderful—I feel like a different person now, and I can buy my favorite clothes in the shops. I am so proud of myself because everyone thought I wouldn’t be able to make it including myself.

I love my new body, and I’ll never let myself go back into my old ways.
