HEROES

Hey Guyz, from now on, I thought I will do something interesting like requesting people who influenced my life to do guest posts once in a while on my blog under the HEROES post title. This post is by my best friend - Pallav. The way he changed his life by taking a stand, is an inspiration for me. His story is awesome. :) - Harshita

Thanks Harshita for giving me this opportunity to write a guest post on your blog. I think I am overwhelmed, feted and honored with your this gesture. Harshita always askedme to share my story with everyone in blogosphere... So here I go...

It is not easy for any individual to face all the uncertainty of his life. But there are few things which are in one’s own hands. This post probably will not interest you, perhaps you'll think of it as a lie, but I m gonna share with you all, my life's biggest achievement.

I used to weigharound 130-140 kg, I know how tough it was for me to carry myself, but still I used to walk very confidently. People who are close to me always used to tell me to reduce my weight but at the same time they also said,"You are a very confident and smart boy" and that quality turned my fatness into smartness. Nevertheless, I used to think why they all are after my life, wherever I go people use to gaze at me, their eyes were always on me, they used to give me advises….that you should run….. do yoga……. "Beta morning walk kiya karo"……. why don’t u join VLCC….. Why don’t u contact a doctor…… why don’t you visit naturopathy clinics…. why don’t you do something…….. You know how many diseases you can have from obesity….. n… blah blah blah….

Height of this, was when the rickshaw-walahs use to make fun of me n deny to carry me or else they would ask for extra charges .I was very irritated and frustrated, I used to think if I m a weird human or some alien on this earth. How painful it cud be for any Fatty person only I can understand! Why don’t we accept this fact they don’t want to be fatty, it’s actually their body type which makes them fatty??

Anyways... I spent my 22 years with all this.. n I was living happily and lively...until one day when I was doing my summer training, I realized that I have ample of time in morning, and I should do something and I started going for a walk. I started with 3 km walk and extended that into 6 km within 5 days. It was very awful and painful for initial days but after wards I started enjoying that. I used to sleep for 4 hours in a day as my summer training, most of the work I had to complete from home itself.

I had also started with my evening walk and restricted myself for 5 km in evening because I didn’t have that energy. Within a month people started appreciating…. I got motivated and started working harder …….

After Four months I was 90kg….. n I was feeling out of this world.. now wherever I go people cannot make out..That this is me… they all talk about me….. Some really appreciate and revalue my spirit and hard work, they talk about my dedication, they give examples to many and I too think that yes, I have set an example for others, those who think, they cannot do….I can assure them they can…. If I can do, then anybody can do.

I have not taken any medicine, no medical help, and no trainer…..nothing…. its just Walking and Exercising that helped me shed so many kilos. I shared my story so I can motivate others also to take charge of their lives and give it back to the people who pull you down. :)

And you know our society there r people who cannot leave you at any cost……. some say I joined some VLCC….Some say….I had taken some ayurvedic medicine… n height was when somebody said that I had gone for a surgery to rid off from fat..eariler I used to feel bad but then I started ignoring their comments…..

Now I start my day at 4:45 am, go for swimming, comeback by 6:45 am, leave home at 7:45 for office, comeback at 6:15 pm and then move for Gym at 6:30 pm, comeback at 9:00-9:30 pm depending upon the execises… now I weigh around 83.5 kg…I don’t know why I m not able to reduce further this is something which I m facing from last 6 month and I m not happy with my weight… hope I will shed more weight…

But all I wanna say here is "THE CHANGE IS IN YOUR HANDS, THE DAY YOU DECIDE THAT YOU WANT TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE, YOU CAN".

Few Lines about Harshita

I think she is one of the best persons I hv ever seen in my life after my mother. If I am in any trouble, I always look up to her.. she always consoles me and helps me out of anything.. she is always there for everyone….. n I think this is the best part of her… sometimes in relation you have to be bit understanding.. Sometimes you need not say... the other person who knows you, can make out what is wrong.. n she….she is exactly like this..I m quite fortunate that I got a good and bestest Friend and Sister in one package from god.Thanks a zillion for whatever you have done for me… I think these words r less to explain my feelings.. n respect which I have for u…Thank u so much…
