Bygone


No no this is not my first blog…and I realized that just today. Bless me I have 4 blogs with 1-3 postings. Sheesh and I call my self a writer. Lets leave that its better late than never and here is a humble approach by me…once again after a long long time.

This blog comes with a purpose. I am here to record my journey…not any simple journey. Here I am in a journey of losing something…yep… a weightloss journey. My battle with bulge began several years ago…to be honest I can’t recall when. I have been a not so thin kid in school, the same body went to college, got married, had kids (a lil more bulge by now) and the saga continues…

Beautiful people out there reading this…I have tried losing weight from time immemorial. Have lost some and gained lots in the process. The only time when I actually saw progress was in 2008. I dropped a whopping 15 kilos. I had zipped my mouth had tangerines. When I say that it was only tangerines for 4 months and the weight dropped just like that.

Then happened baby no 2 and like in mythological serials gods send blessings in a ray (you guys must be familiar with the way gods lift their hands to bless and a ray of light comes). The ray phenomenon happened to me and all that flab was back with interest. And my tryst with bulge continues.

Believe
Today was a day I looked forward to from the past one month. Why so? I met a dietician for the very first time in my life. All this while I was my own dietician, I knew what I could eat and not and lose weight. After many failed attempts in this area the wise one in my head kicked me and I met her.

Ranjani Raman is her name and my first meeting with her went on really well. To be frank I did not know how she can help me in my journey. All I thought was she will give me a list of foods that is permitted and a list which is not and I had to follow. Wrong!

Our meeting lasted for a little more than 2 hours. The first half she emphasized on being positive in life. Never doubt. Believe. As I went on listening to her I felt the nudge towards my goal getting stronger.

Tonight she will be mailing my diet chart and I so look forward to it. Like you said Ranjani, Believe. Yes I do! In myself and you.


Buddy
Loosing weight is much easier if you have a weight loss buddy! I too have one. He has been in this journey from 2007 I think. We have lost weight. Been happy for each. Been jealous too, about each others accomplishments. Mostly we have been there for each other listening to the woes and patting each others back. Blogger world I introduce you to JP my pal, who will be here in my journey.
