When I turned 17... I made some serious changes.
Running is not fun.
I gotta tell you.
I ran every second day for four months strait. That was in 1995. I lost weight
- about 20 pounds in two months and another 10 pounds in the next two months.
I felt great. I was stronger, it was easier to get up in the morning and even the "ladies"
started noticing me. I'll tell you all about that once I get more courage to go there.
It was not very pretty - to say the least.
But the problem was that I hated running. I was really suffering before, durring and
after, every time I went running. As I said in the beginning: "I hate to swet." (archive: 09/08/2006).
But still, things were looking good. I was 17 years old, looking good and then (being 17 years
old and stupid), I went to get hair laser removal. It hurt like a bitch (sorry for the french).
Then being even more stupid, I logged on the internet, got a yahoo domain name - it was oripas.yahoo.com, (don't look for it, it's not there anymore) and loaded pictures of myself
for the world to see.
It was kind of nice: I first loaded pictures of me before I lost weight and the after I lost weight,
and after the hair removal.
I was really proud of myself. You see, after you work really hard, and suffer hell when they
remove your body hair, you get to look at yourself on the web. (by the way, I would still advise anyone to do that...even though be ready to receive some pain from your friends about it.)
But I still have those pictures somewhere and they still look pretty good.
The yahoo web page went down after about two months, when my parents found out (I remind you it was 1995). They went "burzurk" on me. The worst was when they showed the pictures to
my extended family. Again I won't go there.
That was the end of age 17. 18 wasn't so good.
Tell you about it next time.
