Day 1 of daniel diet
Day 1: sept 11
GDinner menu:- 1 banana taken 6pm
- half banana at 10pm
- sardines and rice at 1030 pm
Its filling so far, and gives me the quick energy I need for my 7 pm conference call with suppliers.
Its almost 8 pm and somehow the hunger pangs hasnt set it. So far so good.
After the church lesson at 10, i felt like i was totally drained. By the time i reached home i was already not in the mood to do anything nor energized to engage with my family members.
Not to justify but it dawned on me what im doing may be a bit drastic in an attempt to reduce weight for the race.
Daniel diet
This is my attempt to try the Daniel diet and prove to myself once and for all if this scriptural story has some merits.
The motivation is more towards reducing weight for my upcoming race in sept 28. I now weigh 75 kg and my goal is to break the 70 barrier!

Training for sep Triathlon
Decided to train for my 7th triathlon season!
2x in 2010
2x in 2011
2x in 2012
After 1 year of resting. Im getting my feet wet again. Lessons learned from my attempts last years.
1. Listen to your body!
2. Gradual training phase alternate days.
3. Intense on middle and taper on race day.
Lets see what happens next! And by the way after my tire puncture I had to go see my bike store and almost scored a felt roadbike!
See if this photo would not make you drool!
Idleness
It is really the devils playground. I cant count how many times have I done unworthy things just because of my "resting" for 1 year.
From overindulgence to habitual slothy living, the impact reflected on my weight!
With 1 year almost coming to a close, I have decided to get back to the routine and see what happens.
Never felt better! Must be the endorphins kicking in!
Punctured tires!
For the 1st time after riding 2 years. ! An the sad part is finding a spare!
After hours calling and searching the web for 650 mm tire supplier, finally found one in bukit timah!
Total cost: $ 155
1. 2x exterior tire: $ 130
2. 2x interioir tire: $ 25
Its still worth rather than buying and shipping from US!
