EDGAR's Journal 2

Health has been an important part of the human daily life. Many individuals try to have a healthy lives trying to eat, drink and exercise in a positive way. Nowadays, people have the tendency to preoccupy for their body weight and appearance. The tyra's Show watched this week shows that being discipline with oneself can help achieve a set goal. The winner of the America's Next Top Model implies that before the show she was not in a good physical shape. She started to follow a diet to obtain a shape necessary to be a model, it took her two years and finally she attained her goal. As a foreign student I have not seen many people worrying about overweight, maybe because is not a usual issue on my country. Discipline oneself is in a situation is complicated and difficult. A person has to be determined and strong, the media and society in general has a lot of influence and tempt anyone to quit a set goal such as a diet. I believe if a person desires to loose weight can reach that point with time and patience. Many people will choose a surgery to get rid of the overweight or take other drastic dangerous measures. A planned diet is a healthy one because a person has steps to follow and a clear idea of where is the diet leading to. On the other hand, a surgery is unpredictable, it can reduce weight but the body can have reactions and cause serious damage in the future of a person. A diet well planned and the personal discipline a person have can lead not only to loose weight but to gain attributes such as patience and self control.
