134....

Well, this is what the Accucheck displayed this morning at 6 a.m. just before i brushed my teeth and had the first cuppa tea and four sugarless crackers.

Wow! That was the expression from my better half. "Was it not close to 180 yesterday?" was her rhetoric.

If you ask me, I am glad that my hard work is paying dividend. My diet is under control. My exercise regimen is more sharper.

I had taken to two trips per day: net effect one and a half times than in the past.

I sweat a lot.

Hunger pangs are under control. Occasionally I feel like grabbing a pear or an apple and grab out of the hands of my wife or daughter when they indulge in eating in my presence!

But I tell myself: control, like Nana Patekar used to say "Welcome", the Bollywood hit.

While at home, I restrain from entering the kitchen area - just to ensure that temptations don't ruin my bigger plans.

What bigger plans?

Health... Because health is wealth.

Sometimes I wonder how many holes I would have made in my body beyond the nine prescribed and given by Almighty.

Every pin prick is no longer a pain. I got accustomed.

I began to enjoy the "pricks" perhaps.

Wife keep asking whether I began to feel 'light".

LIght as in what? I don't know.

90 kilos is no easy burden to carry.

Am sure this would tumble down by a few kilos over a month or so.

Not drastic enough to cause celebration.

By the way, how do I celebrate because cake cutting is ruled out.

Maybe I can down an additional glass of pure H2O.

Merciless God!
