My (Diet) Lunch
Knock Knock!!!!! The Communicator light throws up at 12.50. Time for ONLY 2 chapattis, is what I decide on. A bliss feeling runs through my Stomach, making it eager and ravenous. I immediately respond saying “Am Starting :)” to my friends. “Here I come” I say to the Cafeteria. “On your Mark”, “Get set”,” Go” is how my tummy feels by this time.
With great difficulty, I find a place for my entire gang. As my friends start pouring in, so does the Lunch Boxes on the table making my appetite grow large. I remind myself about the Chapatti deal. As the aroma from the different varieties of food begs me to taste it :( , I could literally feel my dietitian standing next to me.
Biryani, Rajma Chawal, Paneer Butter Masala, Sambar Rice versus JUST 2 chapattis?? My mind wavers!!!!!!!!!! My Friend’s Father-in-law’s Birthday special “Gulab Jamoon” is the final culprit for my utmost temptation. Sorry!! Old deals are long forgotten. I pounce onto every Box present as if there is no tomorrow.
Before the ecstatic feeling surrounds me fully, my tummy size makes me feel like;
“Mary had a little Lamb, Little Lamb,
And I swallowed it whole” :( :(
