• Uphengululo lwe

Lixesha lonyaka elo. Ihlobo lilapha, kwaye ukongeza kuxinzelelo oluqhelekileyo uninzi lwethu esele luliva ngeli xesha lonyaka njengoko kuphuma izaleko ezinkulu kunye neempahla zokudada, yinto yokuba sihlala kwangaxeshanye siphila kubhubhane lwehlabathi olunamandla butshintshe ubomi bethu ngobuninzi beendlela. Uninzi lwethu, oko kukhokelele kwimizimba enokubonakala ngathi kwaye ivakalelwa ngokwahlukileyo kunangaphambili.

Ngo-Matshi 2020, ekuqaleni kwesifo, sele ndibone ukutshintsha kwishishini lokuqina kunye nokutya. Sibe yinyanga enye kwinto eza kuguquka ibe ngaphezulu konyaka wokuvalelwa kwabaninzi kuthi, kwaye sele ishishini lokutya lalisilumkisa "ngokufumana i-COVID 15."

Ngoku, malunga neenyanga ezili-16 kamva, ishishini lokutya liza kusiqinisekisa ukuba sibuyisele imizimba yethu yangaphambi kwe-COVID ehlotyeni.

Amashishini ezobuhle kunye nokutya atyale imali ekusixeleleni ukuba awanelanga kwaye sidinga into engaphandle kwethu ukuba sifaneleke kwaye sifanelwe luthando. Bazama ukungakhuseleki kwethu ngenxa yokuba ngakumbi banokusiqinisekisa ukuba ukuba kumzimba omncinci kufana nokuba "nempilo" okanye ukuba ulonwabo lwethu lulele kwelinye icala lokulahleka kwamafutha, kokukhona siqhubeka sichitha imali yethu esiyisebenze nzima "Izisombululo" ekucingelwa ukuba bazinikezela. Ngenxa yoko, iipesenti ezingama-75 zamabhinqa aseMelika athe enza uphando kwiYunivesithi yaseNorth Carolina eChapel Hill axhasa iingcinga ezingekho mpilweni, iimvakalelo, okanye isimilo esinxulumene nokutya okanye imizimba yabo. yezigidigidi ngonyaka kushishino, ngokwe-CNBC.

Kodwa izidlo azisebenzi. Ngokumalunga neepesenti ze-95 ze-dieters ziya kuphinda zibuyise ubunzima babo obulahlekileyo kwiminyaka eyi-1-5, ngokutsho kweNational Eating Disorders Association. Kwaye kuza ngexabiso elinzima: Ukuhamba ngebhayisikile, ukuthoba umzimba rhoqo kunye nokufumana ubunzima ngenxa yokutya, kukhokelela kwiziphumo ezibi kwezempilo kubandakanya umngcipheko ophezulu wokufa, ngokophando olupapashwe kwi Ijenali yeClinical Endocrinology & Metabolism.

Ishishini lokutya alinamdla, kwaye alizange libe nayo, eyona nto ingcono yethu engqondweni. Abayikhathalelanga impilo yethu. Banenkxalabo yento enye kunye nenye kuphela: umgca wabo ophantsi. Basikhohlisa ukuba sikholelwe ukuba ingxaki ilele ngaphakathi: Asiqeqeshwa ngokwaneleyo; khange sithenge sicwangciso silungileyo sokuzilolonga; asiyifumani indlela eyiyo yokutya imizimba yethu. Sigcina ukuchitha imali ethe kratya sikhangela into inye eza kusinceda siphumelele ukunciphisa umzimba kube kanye, kwaye bayaqhubeka nokuba zizityebi ngeendleko zethu.

Ngalo lonke elixesha, singena nzulu ekuphelelweni lithemba kwaye sikhula ngokuqhubekayo singonwabanga neziqu zethu.

Njengoko ndiphinda ndizibandakanya nehlabathi kwaye ndiphuma ndivalelwe, ndiza kudibana nabahlobo bam kunye nosapho endingakhange ndilubone ixesha elide, hayi ngomgwebo okanye inkxalabo malunga nobukhulu kunye nokumila kwemizimba yabo kodwa ngombulelo wokuba. basaphila kwaye bayaphefumla.

Kumzamo wokuzilungisa kwaye sifumane izisombululo kwezi "ngxaki," sihlala sishiywa yimicimbi yemizimba engaphezulu kunasekuqaleni. Kusishiya sinobudlelwane obunzima kunye nokutya kunye nokuzilolonga, kunye nokuthembela okuncinci kwi-intuition yethu kunye nemizimba yethu.

Kuninzi lwethu, sichithe unyaka ophelileyo singakwazi ukufikelela kwindawo yokuzivocavoca. Sasihlala ngakumbi. Sachitha ixesha elininzi sisodwa. Sasingababoni rhoqo abahlobo nosapho lwethu. Abanye bethu bahlala ngokwesaba kunye noxinzelelo. Oko, kudityaniswe nomonzakalo odibeneyo kunye nosizi kulo nyaka uphelileyo, kusenokwenzeka ukuba kushiye abanye bethu beziva bexhalabile ngemizimba yethu kwaye besoyika njengoko izinto "zibuyela esiqhelweni."

Umbono wokubona abantu okwesihlandlo sokuqala ngelixa sikwazile ukutshintsha kwemizimba yethu inokuphazamiseka, ngakumbi kuluntu olunamafutha ngabantu abagxininisa kakhulu kwindlela esijongeka ngayo. Nokuba singabuqonda ubungozi benkcubeko yokutya, oko akusikhuseli kwizinto eziyinyani zobunzima obukhoyo emhlabeni.

Konke okuthethileyo, kuyaqondakala ukuba uyasokola nomzimba ngoku, ngakumbi ukuba ibingumzabalazo ngaphambi kobhubhane wehlabathi. Sihlala siqiniswa yimiyalezo ebumba indlela esibona ngayo imizimba yethu kunye nemizimba yabanye. Sidibanise umbono wokuba kuthetha ntoni "ukuba sempilweni" ngenkangeleko yomzimba, kwaye siyababeka amabala emizimbeni enamafutha. Ukuqonda le nyaniso yile nto esivumayo ukuba sibubone ubume obunobuqhophololo benkcubeko yokutya kwaye ngethemba lokuba siqala inkqubo yokuqaqambisa iingqondo zethu kwaye sizifunele inkululeko.

Ngelixa amaqondo obushushu enyuka kwaye unxibe iimpahla zakho zasehlotyeni, unokufumanisa ukuba azikulingani. Ndiya kuziphendulela; Iifutshane zam ezivela kwihlobo elidlulileyo ngokuqinisekileyo zininzi kakhulu kunokuba zazingaphambili. Amathanga am ajiyile. Isinqe sam ngokungathandabuzekiyo sizuze i-intshi ezimbalwa. Umzimba wam uthambile apho ubuphinde wachazwa khona.

Kodwa nokuba uziva njani ngomzimba wakho, ndiyakukhuthaza ukuba uzibonakalise uvelwano, ububele kunye nokuthantamisa. Umzimba wakho usindile kunyaka omkhulu kakhulu. Ewe, kunzima, kodwa masisebenzele ukubhiyozela kunye nokuxabisa umzimba esinawo ngoku - kwimilo yawo yangoku, ubungakanani kunye nenqanaba lokukwazi. (Qala apha: Izinto ezili-12 onokuzenza ukuze uzive ulungile emzimbeni wakho ngoku)

Ndithethile amaxesha amaninzi ngaphambili, kwaye ndiza kuqhubeka ndiyithetha kude kube sekupheleni kwexesha; umzimba wakho sele ulungele ihlobo.

Nantsi inyani: Unokuchitha bonke ubukho bakho bexhala ngendlela umzimba wakho obukeka ngayo, kwaye ungayivumela ukuba iphazamise impumelelo yakho, ungcolise ukufezekisa kwakho kunye nemibhiyozo, kwaye utyhafise amava akho. Kodwa nokuba sisibetho sehlabathi, isifo esinganyangekiyo, utshintsho kwindlela yokuphila, ukuzala umntwana, okanye inkqubo yokwaluphala, yonke imizimba yethu iya kuqhubeka itshintsha. Bayilelwa ukwenza loo nto. Ayinakuphepheka.

Ukuba akukho nto ndiyifundileyo ngokuphila kubhubhane wehlabathi, yindlela ubomi bethu obudlula kwaye obungenakulinganiswa ngayo. Nokuba ungacwangcisa kangakanani kwaye uzama ukulawula, izinto ezininzi aziyi kuhamba ngokwezicwangciso zakho.

Iya kuba yintlekele kangakanani ukuchitha elona xesha lilungileyo, iintsuku, okanye ixesha lokulwa sisilwa nemizimba yethu kwaye sinqwenela ukuba ibeyenye into.

Ukuba sikusekela ukuzixabisa kwethu kwinto ejongeka ngayo imizimba yethu okanye indlela esebenza ngayo, siyakuhlala sikwi-roller coaster yokuthanda umzimba kunye neentloni zomzimba. Sifanelekile ngokwemvelo kuba sikho, hayi ngenxa yendlela esibonakala ngayo. Ukuphuhlisa isakhono sokwamkela ngokupheleleyo imizimba yethu nokuqonda ukubaluleka kwayo yinto esisondeza enkululekweni. (Jonga: Kutheni le nto sitshintshe indlela esithetha ngayo ngamaBhunga amaTyhini)

Sonke sifanelwe ukonwaba novuyo ngoku-kwimizimba yethu yangoku. Hayi xa silahlekelwa iikhilogram ezimbalwa. Hayi xa sifezekisa umzimba wamaphupha ethu. Ekugqibeleni, ukujonga kwethu yeyona nto inomdla ngathi. Andifuni kukhunjulwa ngenkangeleko yam. Ndifuna ukukhunjulwa ngendlela endabenza ngayo abantu bazive.

Njengoko ndiphinda ndizibandakanya nehlabathi kwaye ndiphuma ndivalelwe, ndiza kudibana nabahlobo bam kunye nosapho endingakhange ndilubone ixesha elide, hayi ngomgwebo okanye inkxalabo malunga nobukhulu kunye nokumila kwemizimba yabo kodwa ngombulelo wokuba. basaphila kwaye bayaphefumla.

Xa ndicinga ngomzimba wam kunye nendlela otshintshe ngayo apha enyakeni ophelileyo, ndiyakhunjuzwa ukuba lo ngumzimba ondinike unyaka ocel'umngeni omkhulu. Andiwuboni umzimba wam ugqibelele, kwaye mhlawumbi nawe awuwuboni. Kodwa ndayeka kudala ukubuza umzimba wam ukuba uphelele. Umzimba wam undenzela lukhulu, kwaye ndiyala ukuqiniseka ukuba ayifanelekanga okanye ifuna ukulungiswa okanye ifuna "ukubuyela esimeni." Sele imile, kwaye imilo ekuyo ngoku kufanelekile ukunxiba iimpahla zokudada kunye neebhulukhwe ezimfutshane kunye netanki ephezulu.

Ewe, ihlobo lilapha ngokusemthethweni. Ewe, siphinda sisebenzisana nehlabathi ngeendlela esingakhange senze ngazo kulo nyaka uphelileyo. Ewe, inokuba imizimba yethu itshintshile. Kodwa inyani ihleli, awudingi ukuba "uzilungiselele." Yala ukuvumela konke ukuthengisa okukhohlisayo kwenkcubeko yokutya kukuvumela ukuba ukholelwe ngenye indlela. Ungumsebenzi wobugcisa. Umsebenzi wobugcisa. Ungumlingo.
