Happy Monday, All! Today is not just any Monday for me…it actually marks my last week of Bill Phillips’ Body For Life. It seems like I’ve been following the plan forever. As I had to take a couple of breaks during the 12 weeks because I was traveling, it’s taken a little longer than expected- …
How is it already the 3rd Friday of May? In typical fashion, the month is once again flying. I’m kinda hoping the rest of May passes at snail’s pace, because then all hell clouds breaks loose. Most people are complaining about global warming and how overly hot Mumbai has become but I’m all for it! …
If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you’ll know that I love to run. Although not every run is rainbows & unicorns, I love the rush of conquering a new distance/speed, the therapeutic effect of each run, and that overall sense of achievement which every run brings. I’m yet to sign up for …

Between my sister sharing her domestic woes and explaining how she is slowly overcoming the language/cultural barriers in China versus my BIL enlightening me on how to efficiently make moolah in …
I’m a sucker for clichés, i.e. guilty of overuse. If I could choose one to describe my life right now, it would be Time flies when you’re having fun. The 5 days I spent in Singapore flew by and yet I feel like I managed to fit in a lot in such a short period of …
There is one reason in particular why I can’t even imagine turning full-time vegetarian or giving up carbs: Sushi Apparently it’s similar to marmite: you either love it or hate it.
