Wow man. glad to hear you're on a healthier path now. Artfully woven again into your unique style that keeps me coming back. The thought of your health bringing your partner to tears is such a tug on the heart strings.
Look at this streak your on! Inform The Academy, Oscar is here to stay!
Perhaps you've made the case for healthy (or is it healthful?) shame? A skilfully told and powerful personal story that segues so well into your movie recommendation.
I relate a little bit too much to the 7-11 hotdogs *tears*. Having my own journey with sugar (always ongoing) I could relate to the moment of getting your results but not realizing it's a problem until you see it through someone else's eyes. Another great essay and movie I now need to add to my "to watch" list.
At first glance your article seems to be about health, but visiting here after seeing your Twitter post (Being seen through the eyes of someone you deeply love and trust can be a powerful motivator) I can see it's really about healthy relationships. In fact I've seen research I'm sure about this, that healthy relationships are one of the biggest determinants of physical health. Glad you are on a less asterixed path!
Ooof body stuff is such a tough vulnerable subject to tackle. Very inspiring to see you writing about it, Oscar. I think it’s a struggle so many of us are familiar with in different ways. But not easy to talk about.
From what you’ve shared, it really sounds like you’ve been on an endless journey of making healthier life choices across the board and confronting difficult parts of yourself. I love when you share these personal bits.
This is such a good line: “Being seen through the eyes of someone you deeply love and trust can have powerful effects.”
