It is 23rd November 2012,
The post should have been named the other way around. It should have been running due to which you lose weight and occasionally enjoy a pizza or two, but today that's not the case. Well it wasn't the case the yesterday or the day before it.
Honestly i am in love with food ever since i left India i am have been eating, eating and eating. It's almost 5 years now since i have been doing that and haven't stopped at it yet. Although i left home when i was 17 years old i was still included vegetables in my diet through the canteen that i had joined on a monthly basis.
Things changed after i moved to Dubai in year 2007. I was 23 years old. What i found was meat based food was cheaper and good in taste as compared to vegetables based food.
In Dubai my regular diet was
Breakfast: Lamp Kheema with Parathasor Sweet (Sheera) with Paratha's
Lunch: Fish Biryani or a plate full of rice with meat and vegetables
Dinner: Chicken or Lamb with Parathas
I ate this for 2 years in a row. Yes two years in a row and ballooned monstrously
.
The picture above was taken in 2007, while i was still in India. A 30 inch waist and with a normal BMI i was in my best physical form ever.
Now this picture above is is the picture from 2010 when i returned back to India. Phew gained a lot and was averaging 36 inches in waist.
Now I am in USA it's end of 2012 and i am averaging almost 2 pizza's a week. 2 pizza's per week starting July of 2010.
I run now and then and get involved in physical activity too but then i eat a lot and i really really eat a lot of everything. Sometimes i eat two dinners or two lunches at the same time and would find reasons to eat late night too.
Recently i went to Marine Corp Marathon and got my body checked for fats in one of those smart GE Machines. The report didn't surprise me much but have a look at the results.
Report Card
Body Mass Index is at 28.7 (Over),
Percentage of Body Fat is at 23.3 (Over),
Weight is at 200.2 lbs (Over)
Skeletal Muscle Mass is at 87.7 lbs (Over)
Body Fat Mass is at 46.7 lbs (Over) ....... I have 46.7 lbs of fats that i am not supposed to have. Yes that's exactly how those two years of meat based food and PIZZA are deposited. Right in my body.
Well now you know why my blog post is Pizza, Weight Loss and Running. In order to run again i need to lose weight and stop consuming the Pizza's.
