I worried about my weight and tried every new diet I read about online. I tried no fat, low-fat, 5:2, only bananas, no bananas — I almost went bananas, too. Then I read an article that said instead of asking “Am l fat?” I should be asking “Am fit?” I had no idea a letter could make such a difference! Once I started thinking about fitness rather than weight, things began to change. Instead of saying “I want to lose three kilos”, I would say “l want to run two kilometres in eight minutes” or “l want to be able to do 30 push-ups”. Rather than cutting out the foods I enjoyed, I added healthy foods to my meals. l could still have a burger now and then, but l would add a salad or an apple. Finally, I stopped comparing myself with actresses and models and looking for things that were wrong with my face or body. Instead, I made a list of the things I liked about myself. By being positive about myself and my body, I became both happier and healthier.
