Here is the first post of my first blog. And what to say? I am proud of me…….not something short of an achievement for someone like me who thrives on procrastination, right?
The weight woes
I strictly follow the ‘Ignorance is Bliss’ policy as far as my weight is considered. One should think the only thing one need to do in order to stick with the policy would be religiously avoiding those nasty little things called weighing machines. Alas! If only life was that easy ;)
Here are two shocking ways of finding out that you now officially belong to the overweight category.
1. When the helper at the bookstore hands you books with titles such as… ‘Don’t lose your mind, lose your weight’ and says “maaadam…you’ll definitely enjoy the book”. Think I am being unreasonably suspicious??? What if I tell you that I have been frequenting the store for last 3 years and this particular helper happens to know that my choice in books are limited to silly romances and sillier crime thrillers and lifestyle books make me run for cover ….
2. When a good friend from school whom you accidentally meet at the supermarket after 2 long years does something like….. look at you with big round eyes that are about to pop out, spend some extra time on your tummy and then shriek at the top of her lungs “am i RIGHT? Should I be congratulating you?”
I am a foodie, hates exercise and not one of those lucky bitches who can eat almost anything that doesn’t bite back, but still don’t gain weight(excuse my language, it’s just the envious me talking). I am exactly the opposite, if something like that is possible. So it’s a tough ride ahead of me if I want to shed those extra kilos. So wish me luck guys… J Actually, wish me twice since I have 2 mothers (mom and mom-in-law) who are awesome cooks and who still think I am still too lean and should be fed every 3-4 hours
