I can see light, its almost the end of this dark and horrible tunnel. A couple of more hours and I can eat anything that I want.. Huraay..
Day 6 -
I being a part of the cricket team and all was really really scared because I dint want to faint on the field, that would suck. But because the previous day was brown rice day I was confident I could pull it off. With a bowl full of brown rice told the captain that I am a 100% (heh!). When I got to the batting, shit! I was getting tired after every other ball. I was so convinced on rotating the strike as I dint want to face many balls that I ended up having a decent knock.
During the innings break they usually serve something and this time it was Idli, mehhhh! couldn't eat it. Had to live with a box of cucumber and tomatoes.
And this was Day 6 where in you are allowed brown rice and veggies. No fruits yet. By the time I reached home, all known muscles to mankind were beginning to cramp up. Not enough salt in the body, so gobbled up another portion of brown rice with some veggies. Then the feeling began to ris, the feeling of wanting to eat food. "Unbearable" is the only word which describes it best.
Beer - Chicken, Lemon Chicken - fried rice, Burger , Paneer Tikka masala and images of many more of my favorite things started to flash before me. But instead all of the above, i had to indulge myself in half a cup of black tea.. Go figure how it felt. Its sucked.
To add to the misery Rupali bought for herself a portion of Bhel and damn the smell of tamarind almost drove me over the cliff. But no, controlled my urges and finished the day with a portion of lettuce salad.
It had been 6 days and I had somehow managed to pull it off against all odds. Rupali was pretty confident that I would never be able to do this. But now she has new found faith in my determination. hehe.
Day 7 -
Now common, who wants to eat fruits and brown rice + veggies on a Sunday. Sunday's is for Idli-Wada sambhar, Sundays is for beer and chicken. Undoubtedly this was the worst day of my life.
Breakfast - Grapes
Lunch - Brown rice + veggies
Mid-snack - water melon
On day 7 you are allowed juices so had a couple of glasses of mosambi juice through the day.
Like I said today was the toughest day because the urge to eat food was unbearable. Moaned and bitched and cribbed but did not fold, I wasn't ready to give in. One more day that's all there is to it - said I to myself.
One thing is for sure I miss food much much more than I miss the tele. The tv dint matter alot towards the end, i.e yesterday and today. The thought of food overcame all other desires. :)
Its 22.30 and I believe I am allowed to eat all I want after midnight. Have had Rupali stock the snack boxes, it may sound ridiculous but I actually plan to get up at 12.00 and eat.
Tomorrow is an all new day! A week of GM diet and no TV, I'm kinda amazed at myself. Never thought I would actually be able to do it. Ya sure others do it, but ohh no not me I am the kinds that can't live without food and tv. Well apparently I CAN.
And ya as per the weighing scale I have lost 5 kgs , what was 104 is now 99. Big plans for tomorrow. Have to put all my energies into gaining these 5 kgs back.
Having spent the longest week of my life, I look forward to some real human food.
