Just make reasonable goals and take one step at a time. Well, to all of you foodies out there – I hope you can relate to what I have written here. I agree with him but at the same time I don’t want to be obese who spends a large part of her money and time in hospital getting treated for obesity related issues.īy the way, I am typing out this blog sitting in a Mcdonalds – trying out their new “Chatpata aloo naan” with Fries and Iced tea (sounds yummy, isn’t it)! Ha, I told you – food is my weakness! One of my friends say, what is the point of working so hard when you cannot even eat what you fancy.

It is not easy to reduce those tyres that form around your waist as a result of eating those yummy fries and burgers and pastas. Foodies like me have a great challenge ahead of them. In spite of doing all this, there are times (a lot of times) when I just give in to the temptation. I eat really slowly so that I give enough time to my tummy to signal me when I am full.I try to plan my meals ahead of the day.When I have to go for an official outing which probably has a beautiful buffet laid out – I eat something heavy (and nutritious) before going.Avoid going to restaurants when I want to hang out with your friends.Always have nutrition bars or nuts in my bag for quick bites.Drink lots of water because that reduces the cravings to a huge extent.For that I have made a few rules that I try (my best) to follow For somebody like me, who struggles with resisting food – it always is a challenge to stay fit. I do not understand how people resist that piece of chocolate or burger or fries. I have struggled with dieting since ever. And I do it year after year because I really want to prove it to myself that I CAN! But it is just a day in the whole year and this kind of fasting isn’t healthy. To stay more than 15 hours without a drop of water or bite of food is not easy. It becomes a test of my determination and self-control. But frankly, I keep Karwachauth for myself (it really has nothing to do with my hubby). It is supposed to be for a long life of my husband. Sometimes, I really feel like a loser!Įvery year I keep the fast of Karwachauth which is apparently the toughest fast in Hindu tradition. I have hired dieticians to help me with this and eventually I end up lying to her every now and then (because I want to eat junk and I know she would scold me for it), yet I am ready to pay her a hefty amount month after month as her fees. I am really bad at controlling my cravings. Weight gain is an obvious one and with that comes a lot of other complications. I like almost everything that is vegetarian and is edible.Ī person like me has his/her own challenges. I have never been very particular about what taste I like or I don’t like. It is not that I used to find the food really yummy, it is just that I like the idea of eating. Quite often when other girls used to make faces looking at the food, my reaction to the food used to be “Wow, aaj bhindi bani hai! (Wow, today is Ladies Finger)!” Other girls were always very surprised at my reaction. I really overdo at times which is a biggest challenge for me.ĭuring my engineering, when I was staying in a hostel – I was known for liking the food of the mess as well which nobody else liked. Eating good food makes me happy and content. Be it burgers, pizzas, paneer tikka, subs, pastas – I love it all. Probably because I lose interest in eating when I am so busy cooking it. So, why not make most of it!Īs for cooking – I don’t excel at that. Food is well, meant for survival right? So, we are supposed to eat to stay alive. Eats for every occasion and at every occasion. I am exactly that kind of person who loves to eat. Well, if you don’t know any such person then you must meet ME.

People who find an excuse to eat something fancy every Monday because you know otherwise Monday’s are boring, every Wednesday because it is the mid of the week, every Friday because they want to celebrate and Saturday, Sunday because who eats at home on a weekend !!! People who eat when they are happy, stressed, upset or angry. Have you seen people whose biggest weakness is Food? People who love to eat it all and cannot stop thinking about yummy food.
