My Experiments With Exercise

By the grace of God I have a low metabolic rate ...in layman's term I put on weight pretty fast..
Thus began my experiments with exercise..I always treaded the thin line between the lean and the fat lane..and there was also the relativity ,60 % percent people are fatter than you ,by theory of relativity you become thin (calculations happen in your subconscious mind )
So all was going well till I took a job and moved to a metro ,from then on the 'Relativity' was not on my side .Looking around I was convinced that it was time to cross the line and join hands with the thinnie minnie's (they seemed to have a lot more fun than the other side and so the decision ) so a plan was forming in my mind ..So I listed down my options
1) Go walking
2 ) Join Aerobics
3) Controlled Diet
Combining the 3options..I had my first plan ..Walk to the nearest gym (Option 1 ) aerobics for an hour (Option 2) walk back home (option 1 again ,good planning) and diet
Synopsis:
Plan rejected
Reason :way too ambitious..
so back to planning.. Start with Option 1 ,next step move on to Option 2 and next Option 3 .It seemed reasonable. Alarms set and kept at the farthest end of the room.
Morning ...my alarm caught a throat infection after screaming steadily for more than hour
Though an hour late as per my plan, I didnt give up, squeezed into my running shoes and set off..only to realise all other joggers were on their way back ,people on their way to office were giving me a weird look and the metro being a pretty hot one was not in favour of my walking at that hour..
Synopsis:
Plan rejected after unsucceful implementation
Reason :Not a morning person
Mitigation : Try the same plan in the evening
Risks: Getting out of office before sunsets might lead to joblesseness

But before I could formulate my next plan ,I had to visit my family back home .As soon as I reached home everyone unianimouslly declared I have lost weight .I was happy and surprised ,maybe days and months of planning had paid off , or was it the one day walk which did the trick ?
The Mind :O God is it the relativity again ??
Next I opted for the true test of weight loss ..tried on a dress I had to leave behind as it was getting increasingly difficult to squeeze inside . ..and there.. it just slided on smoothly and I still had some breathing space...my confidence increased
The Mind :maybe the fabric expanded due to global warming
I decided to put an end to the speculations and went for a quantitative measure, found my old weighing scale and jumped on it..and believe it or not I was 5kg lighter.
My joy knew no bounds ..
The Mind : What about a book on 'How to reduce weight by strategic planning'

My first attempt at exercising Successful !! I was atonised at the power of my mind ,as it was my planning which helped me get closer to my goals..but in a few months I came out of the delusion ,it happened when I moved on to another location and started feeling the affect of low metabolic activity on my favourite outfits .So I took sometime and found out the real reason

• I had to cook my own food (Here is where I got the inspiration for my book :101 ways of making bread delicious )
• Office hours were from Noon to Midnight :making me get up so late that I could skip my breakfast
• Other meals from Office Cafteria

So any of you seriously thinking of losing weight find a job at a place that will statisfy the above 3 .
And as of me ,I cant go back to my old job for various other reasons so my next plan is

1. Jogging
2. Biking to office (bicycyle)
3. Join Marathons

Meanwhile all you Weight watchers best of luck for your job hunt!!
