Gave in to one of my (many) cravings today...

Koka's Low Fat Non fried instant noodle in curry (above pic is in spicy sesame chicken flavor which I have yet to try) is surprisingly gratifying. Not quite like good old Maggi, but it has an interesting chewy like texture to its noodle. I kinda like it, for now.

Being on diet sucks. I am never one who exercises portion control or counts calories. So this new lifestyle is taking its toll on me. I do, however, like the almost daily morning/evening runs. I forgot how liberating it feels after a good run and I don't remember why I even stopped running a year back.

My cravings for fried food have considerably lessened. I have found some great alternatives to meat. Eating a handful of chickpeas makes me momentarily forget about having a juicy fat marbled steak. Hot drinks will make me feel a lot fuller than cold drink does. An orange satisfies my sweet tooth. The smell of my cocoa scented body butter satiates part of my chocolate cravings.

I do not want this to be a part of another diet phase. I really hope that this time, it will become a part of my lifestyle. And I really hope to get smaller thighs soon.

Really soon.
