A post to indicate I am still alive and kicking or rather being kicked around. Just a list of random rants and more of a diary entry, those who find it narcissist are welcome to punch their computer screens and leave a few abusive comments. I am sucker for comments you see...
- I passed a business certification exam. The exam reminded me of the vodafone ad. Three folks who wrote ahead of me flunked and I was waiting for the result on screen...had my heart in my eyes[heart in mouth is a bit overused I feel]. Finally when it was thru I realized the state of mind that guy the ad shud have been in :-), ran to my seat and buzzed everyone in my IM list about the results,and ofcoz was giving gyaan on preparation methods[consultation only for girls though]...aah success is indeed good.
- Going for a trip this weekend, so expect a travelogue in this space. Hadn't written a travelogue for pretty long time, should be better than my poetry I can assure.
- An ex-colleague called up. She is back to india after 2 years, after a 20mins chat she sms-es me.. hey what happened to you, you sound so professional,no flirting nothing..got committed?. reminded me of this...duh again.
- Getting totally pissed with the jago re ads and now TOI has joined the "You Better Vote" campaign with people making promises on their kids' heads...A BIG WTF... Not voting is also my right isn't it, why an emotional blackmail for that. Why don't they have the balls to start a public campaign asking parties to avoid selecting candidates with legal cases on them. I went thru my constituency's probable list of candidates..and I am resolved - I better sit at home than voting for any of these morons.Nop I aint going to the polling booth and giving a letter to the officier saying I am not voting,I want to live longer :-)
- Thanks to the new diet regime, lost 3kgs and a few inches of the waistline.Not that I feel like a size-zero kareena, it's just that feeling light does change a lot of things. Saved all my old dresses which were not fitting me, can wear those round necked tees without being bothered about the protruding tummy[and dread that question - how many months :P] and most importantly can climb the stairs without panting...but the things we need to give up for this....phew..no pain no gain is true.
- Started my very long cherished plan of learning guitar. I am this going-to-join-guitar-class-next-month music enthusiast for the past 10 years. Keeping fingers crossed to see if I can continue this for 2months.
- Another woman's day came and went. I know it's a pointless exercise yet a particualr forward made me smile. Here it is.. Titled "Advantages of being a woman"...
- All they need to do to get a seat on the bus is get pregnant
- Can see the light at the end of the warehouse-sale tunnel
- They dont' look dopey prancing around in aerobics class
- Women can get drunk on less liquor than men
- Women can be "Miss", "Mrs" or "Ms.. men are the plain boring "Mr"
- Women and children go first into the life boat
- Can cry their way out of speed tickets
- Wanna get out ofgym class? Can Pretend of having a period
- They name ships after women...aah yeah hurricanes too

So u r alive !! Good to see u back..Ah, generalisations u men make about women..!! Wy dont they have a men's day ??? .. i wish i had that magic potion to reduce 3 kg too .. have a nice trip ;-)
Bhar the other 364 days are mens days :P :DD
Let me remind you that due to fairness hurricanes are now also named for men. :)
Kudos on the exam, guitar and weight loss! Must feel good. I on the other hand have been eating twice as much as normal, and I'm not heading into winter, but out of it. Go figure. Maybe it's because the dress I already bought for my daughter's wedding here on the farm in August was the last size they had and it's six sizes too big. I planned for my sister to alter it to fit, but maybe it will fit without alterations by then! Jeesh.
Glad to see something new from you.
Renga
Nooo..no violence.We already have a long list of people who deserve it.
Smita
Priceless? No i do have rate slabs..will mail them too :P after the weekend trip is done.
Bargs
Generalizations are there everywhere. And the kinds generalizations we men have to fight everyday...tough I say. Can put a long post about it.
Men's day for wat? men have enough reason to drink n celebrate everyday :D....Thank youus
Ruth
May be some hurricanes are named after men,but the more famous[or notorious]are the one's with women's names.
You are heading out of winter..hmm.. I get too many meanings for that. Now see the positive side,you have saved your sis's efforts of altering the dress :).And am taking a cam for this trip as its supposed to be a very beautiful place,hope i can get some nice pics of nature on my blog :D..inspired by ruth

Cuuuriouss
Welcome...after a very long time. Brain? hmm..not something which i use for posting stuff here so ia m alive anyways.
Verby,
Nanri nanri..and comeone you are not that fat to follow a diet.And GM!! gosh I fainted attempting it once. Its as good as suicide :P
Vimmuu,
Thank yous.A separate comment on the diet :D
Arvind,
I guess the ad shows the guy had voted with a short focus on his index finger.Thank you did have a blast on the weekend.
The Diet
For the query on diet.I did not get an all encompassing generic diet from the dietitian. Just gave my existing diet and got it modified for a weight loss approach.
The generic things in it were things which most of us are familiar
-No fried items/junk food/biscuits[wheat biscuits allowed without butter/milk]
-Having 5 smaller meals a day than having 3 heavy meals
-Having soup n salad bfore lunch[luckily i get it in my cafetaria]
-Avoiding fried form of non-veg n going for gravy forms
-Finally doubling my water intake
Have also got an indian version of diet chart using which we can calculate the calories taken per day.
And about GM diet,I tried it once and failed badly.Later realized a few things abt it like
a) Probability of it being a hoax is VERY high.There are no official records of GM[general motors] advising its employees to take this diet
b) No professionally practicing dietitian recommends it[I have met 3 so far]
c)The indianized version of GM diet replaces the beef on day 4[or was it 3] with vegetables,which looks silly bcoz the amnt of fat/protein/calories beef provides can not be substituted by veggies
d)Last but not the least,you can follow GM only if you are at home and don't do much physical activities[like going to office :D]
Though I am late, but happy to see you breathing :D
Though I am late but thank god, you are happy :D
antha diet ellam velaiku agathu boss!!!!
simpe matter
morning = oats, 2 or 4 milk bikies
lunch = roti/chapathi, dall subzi and 2 or 3 spoons of rice frm ur friends plate :P
dinner = veggies and fruits
middle le 2 or 3 or 4 cups of coffee without ugar ofcourse and very less milk!
matter the over!
sunday hav good lunch, rice, etc etc and all!
daily 45 mins walking and vola 3 months le 10kgs damal!
zimple boss!
:-) last one brought a smile on my face.
No buddy, GM diet works. I have tried it thrice. The first time, I reduced 4.3 kgs, the second time 3.8 and the third time, 3.3. More than just reducing, it purifies your entire body system. If taken properly, it actually gud do wonders. and guess what, the three times I did it, I had regular physical activities too, office, gyming, etc.
and the beef part isnt replaced by veggies, but by paneer or brown rice.
hulloo u say i dnt need a diet?? aftr all ambitous starving
1. my clothes or ne good clothes are nt fitting me
2. im being compared to - puffs, walking ball, & elephant!! ne other creative thoughts needed to induce me to try different diets?
Hey! You do get people to read thru long posts. Congrats on writing another one of those :-) And yes, if you are through with that Diet thingy, here's the site to gain some weight http://www.cookingforloveandsex.blogspot.com
Pras,
That that man..that that diet :)Wat works for me may not work for you thats why I no give out any breakfast,lunch stuff..and abt the walking part..if someone is travelling by bus/train daily it may not be needed.So better to get it customized depedning on our day-to-day activities.
Vimmu,
Great!! you are the first one who says it worked..and nop I am not taking the purifying part bcoz GM is not recognized medically by anyone :D..Jeera water is a better purifier..aah i am telling that to a mallu :P
