Want me to gain weight, take me home to mum 😅

Join me as I walk you down my lane of why my mum is the source of my weight gain whereas her absence is the source of my weight loss.

Gaining weight and losing weight are two physiological occurrences that keeps on happening to us provided we are alive.... Life is dynamic and so is the dynamism of weight.

When we are in good times, it's almost impossible not to gain weight but when we are passing through life hitches, we are susceptible to losing weight.

Personally, I am the guy that's not so big and not so slim type but whenever I gain weight, I tend to know just by looking at my face.

I've gained weight, I mean massive weight that I was even scared my body mass will get too heavy for me to carry sometimes ago and I've also lost weight that I wished I could just get home to my mum to eat her delicious dishes and recover.

Not as if it was a personal decision to gain weight anyway, the world made that decision for me.
It was during the Covid-19 pandemic break when we had to go home and spend close to 12months as a precautionary measure against the spread of the disease.

While at home, there was nothing much to do (so sad I haven't discovered Hive then), I had to always repeat the cycle of eating, watching movies, sleeping and then reading just on few occasions.
All I ever do was lie down from morning till night without doing anything at all, why won't I gain weight, lol.

This cycle continued throughout those months and I was surprised as to how heavy I have become only when I weighed 95Kg on a weighing scale I saw in my friends house (mind you I weigh 75-80kg prior to the break).

As regards to the moments I've lost weight, it wasn't also a personal decision but this time the school management's decision (Tales of an undergraduate 😂)

You know how they do this?

By announcing the examination date and releasing the exam timetable.

As a student, no one wants to fail so whenever these timetables were out, we give in our best to make sure we scale through in Success and I am not excluded in this as I give my best too.

Nothing makes you lose weight like when you reduce your sleeping time to read and before you could know it, at the end of the examination week, it will be very visible to you that you have lost massive weight.

Then I plan on going home and recovering again and the cycle continues, lol.

The moment I gained weight taught me a lot about my health....

• It was during that time that I got to discover how effective morning joggings and workout could be in reducing weight.

• I also discovered that most times what makes us gain weight aren't majorly the solid foods we take but rather the different snacks we take that never allows us to stop whining our mouth

On Weight loss,. I learnt that..

• Stress is very detrimental to health and weight gain as a whole

• Making proper plans about our lives activities not only helps us succeed but also helps in reducing the weight we will lose attaining such tasks.

I chosed the title because home is where I fall back to whenever I feel like I've lost weight massively.... The power of mothers and their delicacy I guess, hehe.
