Ukudlala phantsi kweSikali

NguJill Sherer

Kwinyanga ephelileyo, ekuqaleni kwale projekthi, ndinobunzima obuziikhilogram ezili-183. Pha. Iphandle. 183. 183. 123. (Oops, typo.) Ewe, ndixakene ne "nani." Ndihlala njalo. Ndiqinisekile ukuba ngumlinganiso oyinyani wokuxabiseka kwam njengomntu. Ngelishwa, mna, njengabafazi abaninzi, ndifundiswe ukuzijongela ngaphandle kwam ukuzixabisa kwam, utsho uAnn Kearney-Cooke, Ph.D., isayikholojisti endisebenza nayo egxile kwimbonakalo yomzimba.

Ke, ndichithe uninzi lobomi bam ndibaleka kwisikali esinje ngokuba uHarrison Ford wabaleka kuTommy Lee Jones kwiMbaleki. Ukuxoka malunga nobunzima bam kwilayisensi yam yokuqhuba (135). Ukungahoyi izikhumbuzo ze-Pap smear yam (BAD!) yonyaka (BAD!) kuba ndandingafuni ukuvavanywa kwi-ofisi kagqirha.

Kude kube kutshanje. Kuba le kholamu ifuna ukuba ndilinganiswe inyanga nenyanga, kuye kwafuneka ndigqithe kwi-phobia yam-ngokukhawuleza. Kukwanyanzeleka ukuba umzimba wam uvavanywe qho ngenyanga kwaye ndenze uvavanyo lokuqina qho kwiinyanga ezintathu. Ukundigcina ndinyanisekile, abahleli bam bachonge uMichael Logan, C.P.F.T., M.E.S., iBhunga laseMelika kumqeqeshi wobuqu oqinisekisiweyo wokuzilolonga kwiGalter LifeCenter eChicago, “njengomgcini” wamanani am.

Xa usuku lwafika lokulinganiswa, ndihambe umgama ohamba kancinci ukusuka kwikhondo lam ukuya kudibana noMichael eLifeCenter. (1 ... 8 ... 3.) I-medley ye-minstrel hymns kunye nomxholo othi "Peter Gunn" wadlala entloko yam. Ngokuqinisekileyo, uMichael wayekho, elinde ukulinganisa amanqatha omzimba kunye (gulp) ndilinganise ngaphambi kokuba ndibeke ngeyure yam yokuqala yoqeqesho lwamandla.

Sithe sisondela esikalini, ndakhulula izihlangu, iikawusi, ipakethi ye fanny, imisesane, ikliphu yeenwele kunye nentsimbi yomqala. Ngendiye ndakhulula ukuya kwi-skivvies yam ukuba bekungekho 10 izigulana zokuvuselela intliziyo ezibukeleyo. Emva koko, ndenyuka xa uMichael wayehambisa into yesamamajig ekunene, ibha yesilivere kunye neethambo zam zixhomekeke kwibhalansi. 150. 160. 170. 180. 183.

Kwaye nje kanjalo, yaphela. Bendisaphefumla. Akukho namnye wabaguli be-rehab owayene-coronary (nangona ndandisondele ngokuyingozi). Kwaye uMichael undinike eyokuqala into endikrokrela ukuba izakuba zizifundo ezininzi kuhambo lwam lonyaka. “Jill, xa sele usazi ukuba unobunzima obunjani, awukazi nto,” watsho, egxininisa iigeyiji ezibaluleke ngakumbi (kwaye zingoyiki kangako), njengepesenti yam yamafutha omzimba, umlinganiselo wokomelela kwentliziyo (max VO2; indlela esebenza ngayo Ndisebenzisa ioksijini xa ndisenza umthambo) kunye nendlela endiziva ngayo. Ngaphandle kwezi, inani esikalini alinantsingiselo.

Ukusukela ngoko, ndiye ndanethemba lokuba ubunzima bam ayisiyiyo yodwa yexabiso lokuxabiseka kwam njengomntu (ngaphandle kwentambo yasebusuku kunye nemiyalelo yeThighmaster yam endixelela yona). Abantu ebomini bam basandifumana ndifanelwe luthando kunye nokwamkelwa njengabalingane bam abalula.

Ngoku ndilahlekelwe ziiponti ezimbalwa, ezi zinto azikatshintshi. Yintoni enokukwazi kwam ukuqinisekisa utshintsho emzimbeni wam, ngaphandle kwelo nani. Sele ndomelele kunale nyanga iphelileyo. Kwaye, ndiya ndikwazi ukukhetha iindlela zam, njengokuzilolonga ngakumbi kunye nokutya kakuhle, ngento efunekayo ukuze womelele. Ngoku ndisebenzisa isikali njengomthombo omnye wedatha endaweni yebali liphela- kwaye njengesihlalo seenyawo zokusondela ekukhanyeni ngaphezulu kwesipili sam sokuhlambela ukuze ndibone ukuba ndingubani: ngumfazi, osandula ukulinganisa i-183 yeepawundi. Kwaye, okwangoku, kulungile.

Yintoni endincede kakhulu

1. Isicwangciso sokutya esivela kwisondlo sam kwi-Galter LifeCenter, i-Merle Shapera, i-M.S., i-R.D. Isekelwe ekudibaniseni i-1-2 i-ounces yeprotheyini kunye ne-carbohydrates eyinkimbinkimbi kahlanu ngosuku ukugcina amandla am.

2. Ndithi nkxu ifolokhwe yam kwisinxibo sesaladi, ndiyishukumise, emva koko ndikhabe ilethisi, endaweni yokugalela into yokunxiba.

3. Ukwahlukahlukana kokuzilolonga kwam, ngokomcebisi wam uMichael Logan, ngenxa yoko andikhathaleli nawaphi na amaqela emisipha okanye ndidikwe!
