Reason I haven’t been blogging >> I hate to say this, feel very bad but i guess it has to be said,the truth is i haven’t kept up to my plan. Gosh all those tall promises... feel like a total fool! I know I’ve given some of u more reason to smirk and probably some of you might sympathize with me if u have faced similar situations at some point of time but the fact remains that i haven’t stuck to my plan! Its been so difficult to admit this that i have not been blogging at all.(Well that dint stop me from checking if some one had written and there was only one encouraging word ,thanks Narayani).
So why did i blog now.. well a painful thing happened today. I dint want to write about it but then this was supposed to be a diary where i jot down all joys and sorrows related to my body weight right, so against my good judgment i am writing this..
I met this friend at the washroom and we had our ‘girly chat’ while waiting in the queue. Guess this is not uncommon among us women and some of the best gossips, discussions and shopping notes are exchanged during our long wait at the ladies. After exchanging pleasantries and cribbing about the project, bosses and the usual stuff she popped the question..
“Hey wanted to ask you something, Are u pregnant?”. I felt like this old film heroine who had been subjected to hajar resonating slaps on her face (guess u must have watched those old movies so u can imagine how that feels).I mumbled a 'no' and then gave her some crap about ‘hormones’ and ‘weight gain’ but guess she realised her blunder. I actually felt sorry for her coz she then tried explaining that i looked different so she thought probably it was because of this and all that blah blah but by then the damage had been done. I guess this is the worst nightmare of every 'not so thin' woman..to be asked if she was pregnant,when she is not!Sigh..
Anyway that made me login to this blog and confess.. Feel very sad and upset but am definitely going to do something about it. Ok while I think about ways and means to salvage my wounded pride. Write in if you have any suggestions.

Preeti! As a friend I know what you are going through and I guess I'm not old enough to advise you. Even my sister faces the same problem. I thought I would ask you to talk to her. I have more to talk to you. Let's talk :)
Hi fathak ..feel better about it now. In fact this is a blessing guess it opened my eyes to the fact that i need to shed those excess weight! Hope this incident acts as a catalyst.
Thanks for writing in!
All the best in cutting down your weight. One good advise, sorry not a advise just a tip. A very simple one, but very very effective. Take smaller plate instead of your regular dinner plate and no second/third servings-NEVER. You don't even need to run in treadmill, just 30 minutes walk everyday. Do this and chk your weight in a month, I am sure you will be down by at least 3-5 pounds. Besto!
