Signs of Prosperity

The growth of a tummy and the flab of fat that appears on the sides of your tummy are supposed to be signs of prosperity. Well, I am getting prosperous. My tummy is slowly, but steadily bulging out, and I can feel the fat content in my flab increasing day by day. The increase is slow, but it’s steady.

I have never exercised in my life, because I am extremely lazy. I hate the very idea of going to a gym for a workout; I even hate simple workouts that one can do at home. I did make an attempt at starting an exercise regime, when I was sitting at home after my engineering – preparing for CAT. That’s when I bought a 5kg dumbbell, I might have used it for 2 days, and after that its been lying in our attic. I haven’t even cared to touch it since. My mom keeps reminding me about it every now and then, but I chose to ignore her advice.

A job in the IT field involves sitting for long hours in one’s seat and very less movement. There’s lot of good food available in the locality and one tends to eat a lot. Since the salary is also good, one ends up in a good restaurant frequently and it adds to the signs of prosperity.

Untill two days ago, I was not even bothered about the signs of prosperity, but then when I saw myself in the mirror, I felt that I was getting out of shape. Now that is not good news for a bachelor - who does not even have a girlfriend - like me. So I decided to make an effort to start few exercises, so that I can stay in my current shape.

So I started yesterday. Doing some stretches, stomach crunches and pushups. I am also planning to get my dumbbells from home when I visit there next time. Its going on fine, except for the fact that every muscle in my body is paining, since it’s the first time they are made to do some work!!!!!

I hope I continue exercising for sometime.
