Pitty my Tummy!!

It was about 5 months back… when I realized that its getting difficult for me to tie my shoe laces while sitting on a chair – as me why, Just because I had few pounds of fat obstructing my upper body to bend down further for this noble cause J. Then came a scenario where I felt climbing few stairs gives me almost a heart attack and forget about running, I couldn’t even jog few yards…

I used to be fit as a tiger back in my native (haven’t seen one for a long time now… thanks to the poachers, you can find them only in animal planet show of discovery now). I used be a bowler for our cricket team, a right wing defender for our football club and occasionally played the role of a lifter for our volleyball team as well. There was hardly any day without some sports or games or atleast swimming. – may be one of the reason why people won’t lend me money – as I am difficult to catch – that was a poor joke, please excuse!

When I came to Bangalore about 9 years back and even when I got a job, which demanded nothing from my body - except for the useless brain, I used to have some sort of exercise (you dare not think naughty) or atleast a bit of roaming around on friends places.

It all began when I quit my bachelorhood to marry my love whom I’ve been dating (in Indian slang – loving) for about 6 yrs then. This made me look for an apartment with all the facilities which was never a concern before as I used to share a room with another 4 bachelor friends. My wife is a pretty good cook, and stopping smoking meant I could taste food better. This plus not much exercise (yes, you may think naughty now - but that don't burn out too much of calories does it? I mean - james bond still look healthy) I was slowly, but steadily gaining weight.
I found it not an issue, as I was very lean looking guy when got married, but by the time I realized that fat has started accumulating on certain parts of the body, it was too late. I had atleast a two inch think fat tire around my belly and my cheek started looking like its invading my eyes. And finally the inevitable happened – I was diagnosed for having bad cholesterol above the permissible limit.

It was then – that I realized I better do something about it or become a BHM ( if ladies can be called a Big Beautiful Woman, why not Big Handsome Man? – come on lets talk about equality here ). I joined a gym and has finally started to look like person than a fat pig and guess what, I could finally figure out my six packs down there, with few visible, which went missing about 3 years back… may be one day – if I feel too kinky, I would post a picture of it…. Patience is virtue
