"Me n my tummy "

Research---reading medical journals is part of my hobby

Currently i am studying for medical licensing Exam.( its allows me to practice as a MD).. Its hardest exam that i wud ever give.
Frankly, numbers ( lbs) do matter to me, its not my first priority ( EXam IS). Sometimes,you need to listen to your heart. I tend to write down whatever i feel and it gives me a reminder to stick to my goals( finish exam, quit smoking, work on my thesis , be healthy by the end of August 2007). If i can achieve that, i have proved a point that i didnt squander my time. all i wanna do is some good ( to my family frnds and mankind) in the later years..........

detox diet will help u loose weight

u can use detox diets to loose weight .People who follow it are seemingly more healthy and live longer lives.detox diets will help u to a great extent to reduce weight and be slim.for one week put yourself on a monotrophic diet , i.e. eat only one type of fruit at each meal.For example: BREAKFAST could be melon only. Eat as much as you like and feel satisfied that you have had enough. All types of melons are good. Honeydew, Cantaloupe, Gala or Watermelon.LUNCHTIME: Eat only oranges and grapefruit or pineapples or plums whatever you fancy but don't mix the fruits. Eat till hunger is satisfied.4 p.m. Have a large (12 oz.) glass of freshly pressed carrot juice.EVENING: Eat only apples, pears, grapes or bananas. Eat only one fruit at a time and eat till hunger is satisfied. source:
 
sat 19th may-
checked my weighht today... its 192.3 my new lowest. awesome..iam back with a bang...
studies r going well.. iam still behind schedule after my study plans but iam picking things fast.
Smoking-- i still got some cig pack left. tomorrow i wud buy some nicotine patchs and start cutting short my cigs.
Anxiety-reduced... i think i will leave a mark on my weighing scale..
Hunger factor- frankly i feel i have lost the appetite 2 eat to much. and everytime i overdo, i feel really yawnny.
Mood- good apart from my issues with my roommate.
Thesis- i have to start soon. few days in a row and i would be done with it.
Rotations at hospital- i love to do it
Movies- shrek 3. watched it yesterday..awesome ..


Over n out guys...

talk 2 u all later...
 
usually when i lose weight pretty rapidly in a couple of months time, i pleateau for 2-3 weeks and stay the same weight, then i'll wake up the next morning and be 4 pounds lighter. its weird. Usually when i lose weight its so steady the first couple months, then it just goes in roller coasters of staying the same weight then sudden drops.

anyway my birthday is March 18th...and my goal is to reach my target weight by then also! So we're close!

Tuesday 22nd May 2007 ( 67 days to go)
To avoid panic attacks and to stay away from dreadful environment n surronding, I would tacklin my issue to simple solution by studyin in the library from 8 to 5 Mon to friday. After that, i wud revising few topics with my frnd for 2 hrs. I would be walkin down to the lib which usually takes me 20 mins ( a good one mile walk). That wud allow me to focus as well. I hope it sounds ideal for a guy like me. All i need to worry is few hours here n there. If i am able to focus then its wud be awesome.Anyways back to books. My goal wud be to sit for 4 hrs in a stretch. with 15 mins break and then, again 3 hrs .
Smoking- Still no urges per se. I felt i wud bend down to my weakness. So i ran away from my comfort zone. And I have a long walk way back home, but i can utilise it by calling my frnds..or listening.
WIsh me Luck. Its not that hard as i can live without any food for more than 8 hrs. The hardest part is to study for 8 hrs in a row.

I feel so good about myself. for the past 6 yrs i have been smoking cigarettes. i tried quitting 3 times till now. the longest was last year, when i was able 2 avoid it for a mth. coz of poor support system i got addicted again 2 smoke.
But this time around, i am highly motivated to do whatever i feel like.. and i went smooth on the first day of my smokeless journey. No hurdles. diet in control.. studied the whole day....It was great..
btw, from now on, i dont have to worry abut eating and smoking.. i nearly saved 3-4 hrs...from now on..i can focus the whole time on studying..

i guess, god has given me the solution for all my problems.

i wud write more tomorrow..
 
wed 23th may 2007 1050 am (Lib)- 65 days left
So, My exp till now of quiting smoke has been excellent. Till now No urges to smoke or eat. I guess, My body is going thru the phase called FEEL GOOD for no reason, even after i quitted it. Studies have started off well. Did studied a lot yesterday.
woke up bit late.. rest everything was fine. ate my bfast and now back in Library. My goal is to sit from 11 am to 5 pm today. Tomorrow i wud extend my time fom 8 am to 5 pm.. If i am able to sit for long hours, I have done the impossible. After that, all i need to do is focus the next few mths and i am on the right path. Another few days and i would be master to art of a BOOKWORM.

NExt goal-- wannabe fulltime nerd
 
thursday may 24 2007, 1.18 am 65 days left

2nd day without smoke went pretty smooth. I was lil anxious during evening time .. i guess it was related 2 my studies rather than my smoking habit. I never thought quitting smoking wud be so easy. iam more confident of staying away from it.
studied well today. started off with cardiology. i did quite well.. i wud spend tomorrow the whole day 2 finish it off. I love cardiology n wish i wud be one..lets ssee u never knwo whats installed in ur future.
diet control went fine.. around 900 cals with 1 hr of walking. i didnt bother 2 check weight today. i hope iam losing weight. i need work more harder for the coming few days.. anyways wud write more tomorrow.
 
May 24th 2007 457 pm 65 days left
Checked my weigth in the mornin.. it came out to be 191.9.. ( kewl). i ws happy about that..
Went well as per planned. Walked for an 1hr, studied for 4 hrs, ate good food (lil in excess), mentally positive and didnt smoke.. and even gave a thought about it.( i shldnt be lying..gave thought twice about it.. i guess its awesome) Nicotine patch is working wonders on me.. So, I got like 6 hrs now to focus and wud do my best.

Studied cardiology.. its way to confusing... too much to understand as everything sounds n looks so similar..
Anyways, I wud be goin to the hospital tomorrow.. dont have to worry much about food over there.. I wish i cud lose weight lil more..for the past few weeks i have been losing less than 2 pounds a week. But the amount i eat, is kinda less..
walkin for an hr with Audio lessons is awesome.. My new invention...Just that the lessons r way to complicated ..hehe. I shld choose a easier topic.

Anyways i wud write more later..
 
A hot chocolate drink ( slim fast ) tastes so good with Soy milk..Yummyy.. It brings me back to life....( 190 cal drink)
