When I hit 48, it felt like everything in my life was going downhill—except for the numbers on the scale.
It seemed like I could gain weight just by glancing at my plate. I gave every trend a shot—green juices, keto, intermittent fasting...
I even tried my grandma’s wild red pepper remedy that supposedly chased away bad spirits.
But no matter what I did, nothing worked. My clothes only came in one size: way too tight.
I struggled to sleep through the night, dragged myself through the day feeling exhausted, abandoned my usual routines, and found myself out of breath from even the smallest effort—sometimes just walking a few steps
With every passing year, I noticed the weight slowly creeping up on me.
Honestly, I felt completely helpless, like it was all over for me.
It seemed like my body was fighting a losing battle, and I thought it was just a matter of time before things got worse.
To top it all off, while walking home each day, the kids in my neighborhood would look at me with pity.
Breathless and struggling, they would ask:
"What happened to you?"
"Are you OK? Do you need help getting home?"
I no longer felt good about myself, physically or emotionally.
In utter desperation, I made an appointment to see my doctor.
I broke down in tears, pouring out everything I had been going through.
The doctor told me it was part of a "middle-life slump," chalking it up to my age, and recommended I join a gym.
Ugghhh...
I barely had the energy to make it through the day, let alone take on a gym routine or keep up with my responsibilities.
But then, something unexpected happened—I came across the "Japanese Water Ritual."
I was skeptical at first. After all, I had already tried so many things without success.
Yet, in my desperation, I decided to give it one last shot.
I watched the video, started following the ritual, and here’s what happened during my first month:
