Living far from home, and studied in very different country. I met many difficultives in lives. Somedays, I feel like a fish out of water while on other days I feel comfortable living here. However, these happy days do not last long in my life. I got depression of weight gain. I never noticed to the link of depression and weight gain, they are always hand in hand.
An evidence that I gained 8 kg in short periods, approximately 7 months. The most painful in my life that I could not look at myself in the mirror. I did not pluck up courage to meet anyone, to face off the reality, or even my family. I covered my face by wearing a mask, and told a lie that I got sick.
I was alone, and felt empty when I moved away from others.
Food had been breaking down my body, fat appeared everywhere in my body. I was sick of it.
Therefore, I has started to concern on my nutritions so that I can find the answers, and fixed it as soon as possible. However, the best consequense that I took was worse, I gained 2kg more when I changed my diet.
I seeked solace from eating less, and chose food which has low calories, and fat.
I considered that I did not eat much, the amount of food I consumed every single days to compared with my home country. It does not meaning anything.
Below was attached by photo to make clearly.

Besides the main meal, when I was in my birthplace, I always go out with friends so that we can drink coffee, eat break meal, eat snacks or even chips everyday. We never got fat.
Do you like milk tea?. I drank 3 times per day.

I asked my self: " WHY". I read a lots of articles, newspapers, and watched many videos which mentioned about fat, obesity, and nutritions. Unfortunately, my weight has been significantly growth day by day. Eating less did not supply enough energy for my body, that's a reason why I always feel hungry and eat more.
Last Sunday, I went to a market which is close with my house. One thing was blowed my mind that nutrients on condensed milks.

Canada Viet Nam
It's shown that amount of calories as well as fat in Canada are triple compared with Viet Nam.
If we keep the same eating habit like when we was in Viet Nam, one day we will consume 4000 kcal. Moreover, we was lack of Canadian food information, that's why we get fat quickly.
Now I recorgnize how important nutrition is, and set up one suitable eating habit for myself.
