Pramod Kukanur - Exercise is My Hobby

I spoke to Rameshon that I am leaving Singapore today, at mid-day. My wife is here as well. I have told Rameshon to definitely come down to India to my place during future holidays. 

I have shared with people on my past and what I did to reduce my weight from 86kg to 75kg. I hope that many can benefit from my experience. 

I remember that, in the past, I used to eat late. I was told by Rameshon that by eating late our metabolism will slow down and we can, over time, become overweight. In fact, in the past, I used to sleep very late. Rameshon told me that studies and research have shown that by sleeping late our metabolism will slow down a lot and we will gain weight significantly over time. He told me an old adage, "Early to rise and early to sleep will make one healthy, wealthy and wise."  

He also told me that a lot of difference to a sportsman. No matter how hard a person train, the sportsman is definitely not going to do well in running, when he or she is advancing in timing for a particularly long-distance race.

As a vegetarian, I have no preference for Chinese, Indian or Western food. I was suggested to some food that was sold in the Chinese Vegetarian and I enjoyed those food here. It is near Hoy Fatt Road. There were altogether 3 shops but now there are only two. I saw a variety of food in the Chinese vegetarian shop and chose to take soupy stuff and vegetable items. Even as a vegetarian, I knew that some Chinese and Indian vegetarian shops sell food that has a lot of oil in it. I was careful with this.

It is because of avoiding late-night food that I dropped in my weight and now I am back to normal. I hope that all expatriates here are careful with food. Fast foods are usually not good for the body and we have to be careful of it. 

Lastly, I would like those expatriates working here all the best and be healthy and happy while you are working here.
