Resisting Temptation

Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before. 




It's so hard to resist the temptation of devouring kavsa (chicken grilled or prolly "tinuno" with fancy rice) or any meat produced delicacy. Why? for i'm in the fifth day now of NO RICE /  NO LIVESTOCK MEAT REGIMEN DIET. Hahaha. I know! i don't need to reduce my size or weight, infact i need to gain more actually but the hell in gaining weight, i like my mesomorph type of physique at the moment.

Except for fish, veggies, and fruits, and of course those dressings, all are prohibited to be swallowed by my mouth at this food journey i'm in at this instance. It all started when i stumbled this website (thanks to kamAr for posting this on fb) :

It's actually a loose following of what's suppose to abide as per the articles of the above website. I made a variation in bits and pieces and i love the way i customized it. Although i'm aching to eat chicken meat already, (wtf, what more of pork? i cant cuz im in a country where pork is "haram" or is prohibited), my tongue juices did not fail to resist the temptation despite the many kavsa house around the neighborhood. In the back of my mind, it's saying... "it's all a matter of practice and discipline and consistency". Wehehehe! Let's see how far could i go on this pre-training on the way for me being a pescetarian.

Yup! i long and i planned to be a pescetarian in the future. (pescetarian - a portmanteau between the italian word "pesce" and the english word "vegetarian". from wikipedia). It's a state of eating where primarily fish and seafood produce are exclusively taken in as a diet, in addition to all the veggies, grains, beans, eggs, and dairy. Ain't that unsuperfluous? Well, it's gonna serve a healthy lifestyle when it comes to the morale of eating and diet.


So, on my way to it, i'm conditioning my mind and body to do the needful and make it perfect each day that passes. As of this moment, i took pride and happiness to see myself burping eating lots and lots of fruits and veggies. Two hours back, i just had this simple mixed salad dressed with cottage cheese and yogurt. Oh boy! my tastebuds has been satiated with satisfaction.




Oops. I drink soda no more. It's been one hell of a no no eversince. it's not that i religiously stick to it but on most occasions, i refrain in gulping such bevarage like pepsi or coke or any of the sorts. H20 would quench my thirst, leaving me full and extinguishing any hotness i feel especially being here in a tropical country.


I feel good sharing this extra endeavor here in my blog for i could relate for any progress in the future. I'd definitely blog about this again. If i was a victor in fulfilling this plan - be a pescetarian at least or if i would be a loser- succumbing to old habits. We'll see!

Lastly, a goal needs to be realized or else, that goal would be demoted to be only as a wish. My main goal actually is to be a vegan. Health gurus are saying that one must undergo the science and physiology of pescetarianism first before entering vegeterianism. The logic here is so profound that i made myself to be at peace with that premise. Indeed i have started already. :)
