I was finally motivated to change my life.īut what to do? Well, when researching to find a program, I came across DDP YOGA. I was tired of being tired, and now I wanted to do something about it. Tired of eating whatever unhealthy thing I wanted and not caring about the consequences. I was tired of something as simple as bending over to wash supper dishes being a genuine challenge.
Tired of not being able to drive anywhere for more than an hour without my left leg aching. Tired of only being able to sleep on my right side because any other pose caused pain. Tired of all the constant digestive issues and living off heartburn meds. It was August 2016, I was almost 300 pounds, and I was tired. I had all this, and still would not change. about six years ago years ago I had a bulged disc in my back that was pushing on the sciatic nerve in my left leg and even though I had surgery to remove part of the disc and went to physical therapy I didn't stick to the therapy afterwards and had issues moving around for many years. I had digestive issues and was taking an over-the-counter heartburn medication daily for years and neither caring that I was abusing it nor caring that the long-term use of it may cause kidney damage. And even though I was not committed, I had plenty of reasons to be motivated to losing weight and getting more mobile: my brother and dad have diabetes so it may run in the family.

Sure there have been times I tried to lose weight (taking up football in 7th to 9th grade, trying exercise DVDs from famous tv shows, and even playing loads of Dance Dance Revolution at the local arcade where I used to work), but none of those attempts ever stuck. So I'm 33 years old and I have been fat as far back as I remember, and I was ok with it for the most part.
