Eat - Stay Slim and Healthy!!!!


When I arrived first at Thailand, I thought seeing these slim people “oh!!!!! may be these people wont eat at all.” It’s entirely opposite, the people here eat all the day, off course they have 3 main meals per day but they munch all the day in between the main meal. They have a phrase “gin len” which means “play eating”. It seems they eat for Socialization rather to fulfill their hunger. Snacking is observed almost all the day.You will find many eat outs and takeaways here, as it costs less many won’t cook at home. They eat even fried food and many varieties of non veg but still they won’t attain fat.


This is may be because::

1. Genetically they are slim
2. Their systematic timings ---They will pick some take away on the way to office and breakfast will be at 8 in the morning, 12 noon sharp they will go to lunch no matter What ever work they are doing they will leave it on the way and between 6 to 6:30pm they will have dinner and they wont take heavy food after .
3. Even many dishes include noodles in hot soup and even they take soups with other rice dishes (Tom Yum soup is famous) and their food includes many herb s which helps in good digestion.
Some where I heard “eat more and stay slim and healthy” .Thais prove this.

Cant say they are fit because of only above points but we have to adopt their systematic timings for good health. (Can we??).What do you say!!!

IPL -- The New Revolution


Hot discussion of this year after recession and elections is IPL

Many are in an opinion that it is money minting method and profit oriented, further I heard, it is a big business to invest at the lower levels as cricket anywhere can fetch good returns and it is not a new formula.

I accept but in an other way

It ushered new revolution in cricket changing the rules of the game once and for all. This concept helped the domestic cricket structure.
Mixing of international players in various teams gave good opportunity to our upcoming players. It is difficult to get in to top 11 who represent India but now it gave good international exposure to many talented youngsters from small towns. It gave a chance to establish them before billion strong audiences.
Youngsters can dream of becoming cricketers and securing their future financially as well as the money flowing in to this is huge and parents can think of cricket as a genuine career option for their children.

Mr.Lalit Modi proved his billion dollar brain. Hope it will boost cricket at grassroots level in India.
