Looking back on how it all started ...
The decision to move out of eBay and move to Pune prompted me to relook at my sedentary lifestyle. Over the last few years I had gained a lot of pounds in unwanted places! Grown to an unhealthy 178 pounds. No way to hide the pot belly anymore ... even to the cameras ... even after holding the breath while the camera was clicking the pictures away! ;-)
Obviously I was enjoying life and life was all good with junk food intake and no exercise to balance it off. Everyone around me complaining and worried about my unhealthy lifestyle had made me immune to such statements. Whats more ... my daughters had started 'looking up' to my unhealthy lifestyle and using that as an excuse not to exercise or eat junk... Not sure what the turning point was at the end of the day, but one day, after I moved to Pune I decided to put an end to it. I knew that once I start I will get addicted to the exercises. But I was willing to take that risk as well.
So on Oct 29th or 30th or 2013 I decided to sign up for a 10K run at Pune International marathon. I knew once I signed up there would be no turning back. Thats how it all started.....
