Ekukhuleni kwakhe, uCristina DiPiazza wayenolwazi oluningi ngokudla. Ngenxa yempilo yasekhaya ebhedayo (uthi ukhulele emndenini lapho ukuhlukunyezwa ngokomzimba, ngamazwi, nangokwengqondo bekugcwele), waqala ukuzama ukulawula isisindo sakhe njengendlela yokulawula impilo yakhe. Ngeshwa, u-DiPiazza uthi, kokubili ukudla nokuhlukunyezwa kwamphatha kabi ngokwengqondo nangokomzimba. Amaphoyisa abizelwa emzini wakhe ephindelela akhetha ukungasinaki isimo sakhe sokuphila esibuhlungu, futhi isisindo sakhe sasishintshashintsha kakhulu ebuntwaneni bakhe nasebudaleni bakhe obusha ngenxa yesimo sakhe sokuphila esintengantengayo. Ekugcineni, indlela yakhe yokudla yaphenduka inkinga yokudla futhi waba ne-bulimic emzamweni wokulahla uhlaka lwakhe "oluqinile nolugobile".

Kepha owokuzalwa ePittsburgh wabona ukuthi akasoze ngokugcwele ukubalekela okwedlule noma umzimba wakhe, ngakho-ke wanquma ukubamukela bobabili futhi abenze okuthile okuhle. Esikhundleni sokuba nomunyu ngokungasebenzi kwamaphoyisa, wanquma ukuthi ngelinye ilanga naye uzoba yiphoyisa ukuze azokwazi ukusiza abanye abantu abasesimweni esihlukumezayo. Futhi ngo-2012, eneminyaka engama-29, wakwenza lokho kanye. (Omunye wesifazane uyabelana: "Ngingu-300 Pounds futhi Ngithole Iphupho Lami Lokusebenza-In Fitness.")

Lapho esemukelwe eSikhungweni Samaphoyisa, uDiPiazza washeshe wabona ukuthi umsebenzi wawunzima kangakanani. Uqaphele ukuthi ubengeke abeke umzimba wakhe ngokuzitika ngokuhlanza noma ngokuwulambisa bese elindela ukuthi uzokwazi ukuqina nokushesha ekuqeqesheni. Ngakho-ke, yize ebengakaze azibheke njengomgijimi phambilini, uthathe lo mdlalo njengendlela yokwandisa ukukhuthazela kwakhe. Ngokokuqala ngqa empilweni yakhe, waqala ukukuthanda ngokweqiniso ukuqina futhi wabheka phambili ekujulukeni kwakhe kwansuku zonke.Futhi kwakungekona nje kuphela ukuthi wayeqina futhi eshesha ngosuku, kodwa wathola ukuthi kwakungasadingeki akhathazeke ngesisindo sakhe. Ngesikhathi efika ezitaladini njengesikhulu esisanda kuqokwa, wayesethole inhlonipho enkulu ngomzimba wakhe nakho konke ayengakwenza.

"Umzimba wami owami okukhulu kunakho konke ukuze ngikwazi ukwenza umsebenzi wami ngendlela efanele,” kusho yena.

Futhi umsebenzi wakhe ungaba nzima ngendlela emangalisayo-akugcini nje kuphela ukuthi aphumelele izivivinyo ezijwayelekile (ibanga lekhilomitha nesigamu, i-sprint ye-quar mile, i-bench press, ama-sit-ups kanye nama-push-ups, uma ufuna ukwazi), kodwa. futhi kufanele alungele ukuxosha izigebengu noma ukulwa namadoda ngokuphindwe kabili ngobukhulu bakhe phansi.

Kungakho kubaluleke kakhulu kuDiPiazza ukuqhubeka nokunakekela umzimba wakhe kakhulu. "Ngiyigundane lokuzivocavoca, ngokungangabazeki ngakho. Ngenza konke okuncane: i-cardio, izisindo zamahhala, ukuphotha, i-yoga, nokugijima," usho njalo. "Yisikhathi sami lesi. Ngifaka ama-headphone ami futhi ngivula umhlaba. Azikho izingcingo. Ayikho imibhalo. Ayikho imithombo yezokuxhumana. Lesi isikhathi sami sokuxhumana nami futhi ngilungise noma yini edinga ukulungiswa." (Laba besifazane bakhombisa ukuthi kungani ukunyakaza kwe- #LoveMyShape Kuyinikeza Amandla Kangaka.)

Ukuzivocavoca kungahle kube lula kuye manje, kepha ukudla ukudla okunempilo kwakunzima ukuthola. "Amaphoyisa athola i-rap embi ngenxa yemikhuba yawo yokudla ngenxa yezinhlelo zethu ezihlanyayo, ngakho kwadingeka ngizibekele imithetho ethile," echaza. Ekuqaleni, wayedla kanye noma kabili ngosuku futhi ethembele ekudleni okungenamsoco ukuze amhambise isikhathi eside, kodwa washeshe waqaphela ukuthi umzimba wakhe awukuthandi lokho. Manje, ukuze ahlale eqaphile futhi enomfutho, udla ukudla okulula okuncane futhi okunempilo usuku lonke futhi uyaqiniseka ukuthi ugcina amabhodlela amanzi emotweni yakhe yokugada.

Konke lokhu kugcizelelwa kokunakekela kahle umzimba wakhe kube nomthelela omkhulu ekuzethembeni kwakhe. Wake waqhaqhazela emzimbeni wakhe, ezizwa engenamandla kukho konke ukuhlukunyezwa abhekana nakho futhi akubona, kodwa manje uthi uzizwa enamandla futhi, ngaphezu kwakho konke, namandla.gcwele. Futhi, uyanezela, kumsize kakhulu ukuthi aqonde ukuthi ukuba ngowesifazane akusho ukuba buthakathaka.

"Njengephoyisa lesifazane, nginethuba elihle kunamaphoyisa esilisa. Ngiyangeneka kakhulu emphakathini, ikakhulukazi abesifazane nezingane. Esikhathini esiningi abahlukunyezwa ngabesifazane, futhi ukungibona, ngingowesifazane osesikhundleni sokugunyazwa, uma lapho besengozini kakhulu kwenza izimo ezimbi zibekezeleleke, "uyachaza. "Amandla weqiniso awagcini ngokuba mkhulu nokuba namandla kuphela, kumayelana nokwazi ukuthi ungaziphatha kanjani ngokuxhumana."

Yingakho esebenzisa ukuzethemba kwakhe asanda kukuthola ukuze asize abanye besifazane njengenxusa lomkhankaso we-Dare to Bare we-Movemeant Foundation, inhlangano ehlose ukusiza abesifazane namantombazane ukuthi bafunde ukuthanda ukufaneleka futhi bazizwe benethemba ngemizimba yabo.

"Ngisenezinsuku zami lapho ngingathandi khona lokhu noma okufana nalokhu, kodwa sengiphelile. Ngiyayithanda isimo somzimba wami manje. Ngaze ngazazisa nezitho zomzimba wami ebengingakaze ngizihlanye ngazo ngoba bagcwalisa labo engibathandayo, "usho kanje. "Kwesinye isikhathi lapho ngigijima noma ngiphakamisa izinsimbi ngibona amazwibela esithunzi sami noma isithombe bese ngicabanga ukuthi 'Giiiiiirl, nguwe lowo! Okhohlisayo futhi omuhle, onamandla futhi onekhono!'"
