an apple a day drives the doctor away

March 28, 2006

i could now feel my almost 3 weeks 1-cup-rice-plus-fruits-and veggies-per-day diet. at work ive been munching on nothing but creamed crackers (the likes of Magic Creams and Rebisco Crackers) plus lots and lots of water and of course my all time addiction: lipton green tea. i tried, really tried, to do pilates at home following a perky two-toned exercise guru…but i always end up snoozing on my exercise mat. pathetic. so il do my fat-shedding the other way: killer diet. it wasn’t difficult for me because i started right after i got sick. it was a weird thing. the week after i got sick, i had zero appettite. i had no taste for all those recipes i myself cook all the time. for the first 3 days after i got sick, i can’t get past 3 spoonful of rice with ulam. so i end up eating a banana or an apple which surprisingly makes me feel full for the next 8-10 hours. geebee is worried due to the sudden change of my eating habits. it was an extreme kind of change. from hungry-and-shoving-food-in-my-mouth-every-minute to the-mere-smell-of-cooked-meat-makes-me-want-to-vomit. my mom advised me to add fish into my diet. and so i did, i have fish every other day and the dizzy spells ive been having went away. and now, after almost 3 weeks, i feel a change. a loose change, literally and specifically in my pants. im liking it.

you might think that im a vain person. im not. this is a long-time overdue thing that ive promised myself in order to erase a certain frustration of not being able to wear the clothes that i used to wear. those same clothes that are now cramped inside my closet for almost a year. clothes ive painstaikingly acquired for years. clothes i felt so comfortable wearing day after day. im not materialistic, im doing this for self-fulfillment. its not just the clothes. its the feeling of being able to move around in my jeans and tank tops and shorts and multicolored sando’s…i want to feel free from shabby sweatshirts and and drawstring pants and ponchos. i want to be me again. and im dead sure of myself il achieve that. and besides, who wants to look like a suman in her wedding dress?! horror. not me. definitely not me.

just finished reading 2 Dan Brown books in 3 weeks. Deception Point and Angels & Demons. no special reason. im not really a fan of Dan Brown, although i read The Da Vinci Code out of pure curiosity. so it follows that the reason i read his 2 other books is surprise, surprise…out of pure curiousity. and il be reading his other last book, Digital Fortress and after that he’s history.
