How would you respond?

[layla17293]

Earlier one of my co workers commented about me akala nya di ko narinig kasi I was doing some reports na naka earphone pero narinig ko pa din kasi wala naman music naka pause at that time. Verbatim sabi nya " kahit nag workout sya malaki pa din naman tyan na eh. "

Di ko na na confront di ako napatol sa babae na maritess at lalo na if di ka naman nag woworkout.. wala kang right mg comment sa progress ko kasi ikaw di mo nga kaya e motivate sarili mo para ayusin katawan mo..I dont know if nasa tamang sub ako. Pero pa release lang isa.hahaha

Btw. I'm M/36 was 175 lbs before malaki tlga tyan ko nun.. since I started working out eto current ko now.

158 lbs na at lean sa upper. My fat belly pa pero di n ganun kalaki at ka visble gaya ng dati.

Hindi ako mayabang pero para sakin malakng progress na yung pilitin ko sarili ko mg workout kahit ayaw ko.

If ikaw nasa lugar ko, how would you handle it?

@layla17293 I'd just ignore it. A common misconception among people who don't workout and/or beginners is working out = getting abs. I get that a lot from my colleagues, too.

I've been working out consistently for 4 years now, wala pa rin akong 6 pack abs. I don't think I ever will, and I'm okay with that, because that's not why I'm doing it. I reckon I can if I starved myself enough, but it's not worth it.

@goldtruth Naranasan ko magka 4 pack nung around 143 lbs ako. Im at 160 now, wala na kong plano magka-abs. The hunger and loss of energy is not worth it. Okay na ko sa tank build.

@beautyfromathistle

nung around 143 lbs ako.

Before or after resurrection?

 

[beautyfromathistle]

@exodus02 Before yan, due to flagellation and blood loss. After resurrection, nakapag unli bread at wine ako.

[layla17293]

@goldtruth Thanks po. This kinda lifted me na normal lang pala to. And the work itself is the reward. Is gaganda physique ko so thank you if hindi okay lang din.. di ako susuko dahil sa comment nya. Affected ako? Oo pero pina process ko now anger ayaw ko na dalhn sa offce mamaya.

@layla17293 Take it as a challenge,the results will speak for itself. Youre already makin HUGE progress, pagpatuloy mo lang, dont give her the satisfaction of thinking you care sa opinion nya.

 

[layla17293]

@godsman82 Thanks po.. I kinda needed that. Nasaktan lng siguro ako kasi at some point naging close kami.

But never ko naisip na sasabihin nya yun. Pintawad ko nalang at ng workout nlng ako. Chest and core day ng malala. Bahaha #youcanthurtme

@layla17293 Pag inggit, pikit. Ganon talaga ibang tao, pinoproject insecurities sa iba. And some people naghahanap talaga ng excuses, para sakanya “kung si Enema nga ang sipag magworkout pero di naman pang magazine ang physique, di na lang ako magwoworkout”. Ignore them lazy shits.

 

[marynabil]

@layla17293 Ignore. Haters gonna hate. Keep hustling bro.

 

[yaheli]

@layla17293 I used to have a nice set of abs

I had a strong athletic build

I had a strong tank build

In every single one of those stages I had comments na may tyan ako, madalas coming from a fat person. So f*ck what they think pero iwasan mo rin magcomment sa katawan ng tao.

 

[jackspec]

@yaheli In my experience ganito din, when they say “taba mo na ah” I just say “uy ikaw din” bastusan ang reply dapat if bastos approach sayo

 

[layla17293]

@yaheli Thank you po as advice oo po di po ako ng cocomment kasi ayaw ko nga ma body shame. Nadala lang ako sa emotion ko kanina .

 

[yaheli]

@layla17293 It's ok kid, always know that hate can also be a good source of fuel.

 

[layla17293]

@yaheli Thank you po.. yes I used that earlier to work out after shift. I went at it from the get go.
