Chapter 5 – Part 5
The vitamins were gray pills.
[Our Family Comprehensive Health Vitamins: Take one tablet a day with water. It contains all the elements our body needs in recommended amounts. In the short term, your body will feel energized. When taken long-term, disease resistance is maximized. The probability of contracting a disease is extremely low.]
The price is very cheap at 1 point every 3 days.
The effect is that it energizes the body and prevents diseases.
It was a good item.
‘It’s one of the best items.’
Jinseong had the character take vitamins for a long period of time.
The difference between taking it and not taking it was quite large.
For example.
The more the character used his brain, the more hair he lost.
When I took the nutritional supplement, not a single hair fell out.
For another example.
When the character worked in a cold place, he often caught the flu.
If I take vitamins, I almost never get the flu.
Besides that.
Even when an epidemic broke out in the village and everyone was in pain.
The character alone was fine. I made oatmeal for my acquaintances.
‘There is a downside to having to take it for the rest of your life…’
However, you have to spend 1 point every 3 days for the rest of your life.
The advantages of vitamins far outweigh the disadvantages.
Jinseong took the vitamins and lay down.
‘It’s payday tomorrow… If I just survive tomorrow, it’ll be Saturday… Because working hours are short on Saturdays…’
On Saturdays, the workday was short, from 7 a.M. To 4 p.M.
‘And it’s closed on Sundays.’
All I had to do was hold on for a little while.
‘I’ll sleep all day during my day off.’
Jinseong usually slept a lot on Sundays and bought delicious food.
Well, even though it was delicious, it only cost 10,000 to 20,000 won.
‘I’m happy.’
Just the thought of relaxing on Sunday made me smile.
I need to sleep.
∴∴∴
I woke up 30 minutes earlier than usual. I went out to the common kitchen. I put the eggs in a pot and boiled them.
‘Make it ripe quickly.’
I bought eggs and bananas at the supermarket on my way home last night.
He actively accepted Park Man-bok’s advice that it was good to eat eggs and bananas in the morning.
‘I heard it helps with dieting…’ It’s not very expensive… I also like eggs and bananas…’
Tomatoes boldly passed.
‘No taste.’
Jinseong hated tomatoes. Cherry tomatoes, regular tomatoes, and even candied tomatoes were disliked.
‘I don’t like tomato juice either.’
I hated the unique smell of tomatoes.
‘It’s all ripe.’
Finished boiling the eggs. I cooled the hot eggs in cold water.
Peel it. I dipped it in flavored salt and took a good bite.
It was a golden soft-boiled egg.
‘It’s delicious. ‘It was well cooked.’
Freshly boiled eggs were just right. I don’t know why it’s so delicious.
I replaced breakfast with two boiled eggs and two bananas.
‘I need to take vitamins.’
I took vitamins.
Is it an illusion? Was it effective?
My head was clear. Even though my body was sore, it was light.
‘I feel energized.’
I stamped my attendance stamp. I worked frantically all morning. As I was slowly getting hungry, it was lunchtime.
“Youngest child, do you have no appetite?”
Ji-seong Lee asked.
“Why do you only eat that?”
Next, Gwangwoo Kim asked.
“Will I feel strong just by eating that?”
“I’m not eating even half of what I normally eat?”
“Would you like to eat ramen?”
Everyone was puzzled and asked.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Jinseong’s food tray was ‘as good as a small tent.’
Let alone half of the usual amount, it was only one-third.
It’s not just the amount of rice that has decreased. The amount of side dishes and soup also decreased. There wasn’t even the ramen that I used to eat.
“I’m going on a diet.”
I answered calmly.
“From now on, I plan to reduce the amount of food I eat and avoid ramen.”
“Hey? You have great will, don’t you think? Well-thought-out.”
Ji-seong Lee was positive.
“Aren’t you overdoing it from the beginning? Are you going to binge-eat?”
On the other hand, Gwangwoo Kim was skeptical.
[Inner thoughts: Phew, news on the subject of the piglet? I’m betting a million won, no, ten million won, that I can’t survive within three days and binge-eat.]
Jinseong was upset after confirming Kim Gwangwoo’s true feelings.
‘I never thought negatively of Gwangwoo… I haven’t really been rude to my brother…’
Honestly, it was a wound.
‘I have to live at a distance from my brother.’
Later, when life goes well, I will quietly block Kim Gwang-woo’s contact information.
Hanging out with a person full of malice would cause more harm than good.
I closed my heart.
The same goes for dinner. It wasn’t much different from lunch. The amount of food put on the plate has been significantly reduced.
‘Damn it!’
The day I go is market day.
Unfortunately, my favorite stir-fried pork was included in the menu.
My eyesight became dark.
∴∴∴
“Mom, I just added 10 million won.”
-Thank you, son. Thanks to you, I survived.
“The housing problem is solved now, right?”
-Yes, it was resolved thanks to my son. Thank you. Thank you so very much. And I’m sorry for giving you a hard time every time.
“No.”
Although I answered calmly.
Honestly, it’s dull.
I couldn’t help but feel sick because I had handed over the lump sum I had worked so hard to save.
It was a blessing in disguise that I was able to help my family.
It’s money, you just have to earn it again.
I worked hard to console myself, thinking that I would be able to make a lot of money in the future because there was an era of success.
-The debt will be paid off in June of next year, right? When it’s over, I’ll pay back everything I owe my son.
“It’s okay. You don’t have to pay me back. I’m fine, so don’t worry about me. “I think you two will live well.”
-Thank you. I’ll pay you back with interest. I will do whatever it takes to make up for my son’s hardships.
Her mother’s gratitude and regret touched her heart.
The pain in my heart that I had worked so hard to comfort was relieved a little.
∴∴∴
A change has occurred in my life.
In the meantime, work -〉 Ignorant meals -〉 Coming home from work -〉 Phone games -〉 Good sleep -〉 If late-night snacking was your daily routine.
Now, eat breakfast -〉 Take vitamins -〉 Work -〉 Control your meal size -〉 After work -〉 Good sleep -〉 Fitness -〉 Good sleep.
I stopped playing games and late-night snacks.
I started controlling my diet and going to the gym.
At first glance, you might think it’s an insignificant change.
It was a very big change. Enough to change the future.
“And…”
Jinseong let out an exclamation.
He is standing on the scale and measuring his weight.
Just a week ago, my weight was 95 kg.
There was a seismic change in my weight in just one week.
[89.8 kg]
He weighed just under 90 kg. A whopping 5.2 kg was lost.
5.2 kg per week. It was like losing 0.742 kg per day.
Some people may ask whether it makes sense to lose 5.2 kg in a week.
To conclude, it makes sense.
Usually, the order of weight loss was water -〉 residue -〉 fat.
It can be said that about 3 kg of water has been lost, about 2 kg of residual water has been lost, and about 0.2 kg of other fat has been lost.
“Congratulations.”
Park Man-bok checked Jin-seong’s weight and applauded.
There was pride and pride in his eyes.
He knew very well how hard Jinseong worked during the week.
He believed that those who worked hard should be applauded.
“I lost more than I thought.”
“Thank you. It’s all thanks to the boss’s guidance.”
“No. It’s not my fault. Furthermore, it’s thanks to the members’ hard work.”
“Thank you. All I can say is thank you.”
“Hehe, good. How are you feeling today?”
Jinseong checked the status.
Is it because of nutritional supplements? Or is it because of my physical strength? Or is it because I exercised for a week?
“I feel light both physically and mentally. “I have almost no muscle pain.”
“Change and adaptation are quite fast.”
“Actually, I didn’t bother going to the gym until yesterday, but today, strangely enough, it didn’t bother me at all.”
“It’s because my willpower increased as I lost weight.”
Park Man-bok explained the correlation between weight and willpower.
The story was that as you gain weight, your willpower decreases, and conversely, as you lose weight, your willpower increases.
“Starting this week, you will lose weight slowly. No matter how hard I try, I will only lose about 2 kg.”
“Ahang, neng.”
“Starting today, I recommend increasing your aerobic exercise and eating 10% less rice.”
“I understand.”
“It’s smooth. It’s great. If you stick to this, you will succeed in dieting and build a great body.”
Park Man-bok clenched his fist.
“Fighting!”
“I will work hard.”
I think I said thank you to Park Man-bok hundreds of times.
As Jinseong warmed up his body, he glanced at his side.
Ha-yeon Park was seen doing strength training using equipment.
[Likeability: 5]
[Inner thoughts: I thought he was just a gloomy pig… I lost 5 kg… I stamped my attendance all week… Honestly, it’s surprising. It’s pretty good.]
The likability has changed. The negative favorability rating was eliminated overnight. It received a favorable rating of +5.
‘How unexpected? It’s pretty? ‘You acknowledge my efforts?’
The corner of Jinseong’s mouth twitched. Honestly, I felt very good.
‘Good job doing the gym. ‘I did a great job on my diet.’
I just worked hard to lose weight.
Along with her weight loss, beauty compliments followed.
‘I need to work harder. I have to do even more than yesterday.’
An achievement has been created.
[Achievement 8: Run for more than 30 minutes.]
[Reward: 20 points]
Ran. It wasn’t fast. It was slow, like an old woman running.
I ran as slowly as possible. I maintained my breathing as I had learned so far.
‘I’m going to die.’
It became difficult after running for 5 minutes.
‘It’s okay.’
After 10 minutes, it became quite enjoyable.
“Gasp, pant.”
After 15 minutes, her breathing became heavy.
“Heh, heh.”
After 20 minutes, her body started to hurt.
My stomach and calves both hurt. My breathing was so rough that I thought I might slow down.
‘Just a little.’
It was hell until the 25th minute.
‘5 minutes. She just needs to run for five more minutes.’
She said hello after 25 minutes.
Every second felt like a minute. 10 seconds felt like 3 minutes. 1 minute felt like 10 minutes. This time may never end.
I closed my eyes tightly.
“Keuuk.”
It took 30 minutes. Sweat flowed down like rain.
[You have cleared achievement 8.]
“Hey, did you run for 30 minutes?”
“Huh, yes, yes.”
“It looks like you’re already gaining stamina.”
∴∴∴
Losing 5 kg.
A compliment, not a compliment from a beautiful woman.
Running for 30 minutes for the first time in my life.
Receiving a sweet reward.
The status window gradually moves upward.
‘The sense of accomplishment is no joke.’
