The Waste called Waist

I never thought I would have to write something on these lines - but alas, the minor expansion 3 inches above my belly button and 2 inches below it have compelled me to do something about it. And I chose to blog - call it my way of reducing calories ;-).

All said and done, atleast I am conscious about my ever increasing waist size. The trousers seem to get tighter by the passing second, and each time I look myself in the mirror I tend to pull in my tummy and stop breathing for a while. Damn - this is terrible, I am a certified pot bellied character now :(

Okay - enough of sulking over, I should now chalk out an action plan to tackle this menace. I have my wedding in December this year, that is less than 5 months away. Surely I can do something to look "better" and "in shape". What are the options I can look into?

• Stop dipping myself in beer - irrelevant, am a teetotaller.
• Start going to the gym - worth considering, but is it very essential?
• Avoid, nay - stop consuming "fatty" foods - Ouch, chicken kaise bhool jaoon?
• Stop worrying, relax - Ah, high funda stuff - wonder if this is applicable to me!

Ummm - I have been thinking of doing a daily round of jogging for the past one year or so, and that has resulted in me going out for long walks on certain days. I think loyalty to myself would help me reduce an inch or two. Abstinence from "fatty" food! In my case, the lust of a tangdi kabab is much more than the usual reason why the word "lust" is used for. But I have managed to put a check on myself - my office lunch is purely fruits, and I have managed it for about two weeks now. This, coupled with infrequent indulgences for the taste buds (which are few and far between them), should work favourably for me.

That's it - I have developed a "plan" which needs to be implemented well to realize fruitful gains. How much do I comply with it? Well, guess you will get to know more about it in the days to come!

P.S - I walked back home yesterday, and it wasn't too taxing. 4.5 km in 45 minutes or thereabout. I believe I will continue the pattern till I remain jobless in the workplace.
