Writing Exercise 405 - I CANNOT BELIEVE IT! It is unbelievable that I have gained some weight in the past year. Guess how much weight I have gained? It was five kilogram in total, which was about 11 pounds. What was the cause of the gaining weight? I figured out that there must be two reasons. Firstly, our company always offers us free snacks,ice cream and all kind of beverages, which are artificially sweetened ones. The worst of it was that I did not notice that how many snacks I had had during work, because they were in mini packed. Unconsciously, I ate more and more. Secondly, I did exercise less than usual. I used to exercise an hour every weekday. Now, I only do it 30 to 40 minutes during the weekdays.
