And then I started getting honest with myself about what had become my lifelong struggle with obesity, and I noticed this pattern, that I was gaining about two or three pounds a year, and then about every 10 years, I'd drop 20 or 30 pounds.
Mas resolvi ser honesto comigo mesmo sobre a minha luta permanente  contra a obesidade, e apercebi-me dum padrão. Estava a aumentar 1 kg ou 1,5 kg por ano e de 10 em 10 anos, perdia 10 ou 15 kg.
