Lesson #8: On fasting

(For Smole, in point-form, so she doesn’t feel like she needs a highlighter when she reads these long-winded posts.)

  1. Ms Nomer is fasting from fast food this Lent.
  2. The more she tries to abstain from fast food, the more obsessed she has been about food in general.
  3. Which means she is eating a lot more this Lent, as evidenced in the list of what she consumed yesterday.
    1. 1 lor mai kai (glutinous rice with chicken)
    2. 2 cups of coffee, with milk and sugar
    3. 2 pieces fried chicken
    4. Coleslaw
    5. Mashed potatoes
    6. 1 cup coke
    7. 2 Crystal Jade char siew bao (Stewed meat bun)
    8. 1 pork floss bun
    9. 1 plate Halal chicken rice, and
    10. 1 spoonful chicken soup with pasta
  4. Which led Pink tutu to message her: “No wonder you need to exercise and I dun! ;) ”
  5. Which is perfectly smoozy with me.

Yours,
Anthrope

Where are you keeping her?

Whereever she is, she obviously has access to lots of food!

Ah, that's a lot of food. (redundant statement number one) Where's Ms Nomer? She modified her nick and decided to run away? WT?!
Why do you keep contemplating on religion? How awfully dull!

Siren:

with Ms Anthrope's permission (hopefully), the religious contemplation you speak of appears to tie in with the current season of Lent... which is supposed to mark the 40 days and nights that Jesus fasted in the wilderness, tempted by Satan and preparing Himself for the final act of supreme sacrifice, and that culminates with the Crucifixion on Good Friday and the Resurrection at Easter...

dull? not at all... think Ms Anthrope's antics are quite entertaining... as for Ms Nomer, I surmise she's enjoying the break as well... while her "kidnapper" or should I say, blognapper takes over...

Colin, I know what Lent is. *exasperated* I want Ms Nomer back. I tried to be mean. See, I'm eposing my guts to the vultures of Ms Anthrope. Ah me.

Writing down what you eat for the day helps you reflect on what needs to be done. You're on your first step. hah! ~milktea
