Reducing weight before going home...pointless! We are going to be fed and stuffed willingly, might as well make that "Rejoin gym ASAP after getting back to Newark".
ReplyDeleteGives me a feeling of all the good things to come :)
@Sumana: That is the point! I know I am going to gain at least 10 lbs in India, so I wanted to shed them before I left.
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to get stuffed and fed :D. And no more gymming atleast for a month after I come back to this Newark! Never!! Happy Holidays btw :). enjoy :) :)
