Fat To Fit

Like I was saying earlier, this method and the madness is something I have done before. Although I have lost all taste and desire to eat sausages, the fat intake capacity continues.

This time around I hope I can continue with this longer than I did last time around. As promised, the proverbial Spinach and Cheese is back. Sonam (my wife) & decided to make good use of the weekend and make a massive batch to last us through mid week.

6 Bundles of Spinach ( Washed and chopped)

500gms of butter - for simply buttering things up

500gms of cheese - well, its spinach and cheese

* Note: Dont use salt as the butter is salted anyway.

Result: Awesomeness

Secret: Last month I was away for a friend’s wedding and was wearing I suit I had cut out when I was a little leaner. Fitting into it meant squeezing in and my current belt was a floater on it. So I punched a new hole for the fit. Now that new hole in the belt is my current standard. Getting there!

This weekend is going to be a 3 day wedding extravaganza. This poses 2 problem; 1 is the food available in Indian weddings is carb laden and 2. I dont have any clothes to wear for 3 events on 3 days. Most of them are either not my size anymore and I don't want to shop. Somehow Manage.

I wasnt able to kick in a good breakfast or a massive dinner like I used to earlier. The early mornings can do this to you. I have been wanting to do breakfast for the last week and early morning 6 am breakfast doesn't really go down well. Nonetheless I did break up my breakfast in 2 parts. 

Works well, atleast for the last day or two. In trying to manage two breakfasts, I forgot my lunch and cell phone at home. Lunch became snacks and were relished nonetheless.

The day started early and I went off to cheer my team at the corporate sports tournament. Nothing great came off it, but a little friendly banter with competitors, some fun and a whole lot of free food. 

Since my kitchen is back in action after a good 4 days I was in those moods when I wanted to cook some good food. Kicked up the flame and cooked some good eats.

The last 3 days my kitchen has almost been shut due to a clogged drain and a whole lot of work around it. However, whatever I could manage to sneak in and out of it is here. The days haven't been as heavy on eating and it kills me to be that way. 

Till Then. 

Didn't quite get in enough sleep on Sunday night to wake up at 4:30am on Monday and Monday didn't end early enough to sleep in again for Tuesday; credit to a few friends who show up to drink at my place. 

Ended the day sleeping at 6:00pm and waking up at 4:30 am Wednesday; much needed sleep catchup. 

Tuesday was very light on food and heavy on work and sleep. 

Day 141:

Breakfast:

1 cup tea with milk

2 boiled eggs

Lunch:

3 boiled egss

1 cup tea, black

Sleep. 

Till Then. 

For the next 15 days I will be working early mornings; starting 6am. That means waking up at atleast 4:30 to get something on the pan, cook it, pack it and eat it later. Even if I need to make bathing an alternate day routine, I will need to keep atleast a good 40 minutes to get the cooking in. 

This would also mean that I need to re-work my eating habits to include an early breakfast, as early as 9am and that wouldn't be as heavy and the last meal of the day might be before sun-down. Sounds interesting, but is a pain Trust me.
