super sized!

I can literally smell the french fries.

But I don't want to eat it anymore! :D

Woooooooh! That's it, I hereby pledge to no longer consume any of the following food items:
1) French fries (biiiiig sacrifice!!)
2) Soda (Coke, Pepsi, etc) (not a big sacrifice, don't really like them anyway)
3) Fast food burgers (this does not include the KFC Zinger Burger.. hehe, not yet anyway)
4) Ice-cream

*And as a tribute to the documentary below, not to order "Large" portions of anything when there's "Small" or "Regular".
*So as not to send myself into panic mode (hahaha) I won't altogether ban KFC "Cheezy Wedges", but maybe I'll limit it to like .... once a month? I wonder what thin people do with tasty treats like them! ;P

I feel so inspired by the movie/documentary "Super Size Me" that I've just watched.
It's about how America has rapidly become a "fast food nation", and the story (non-fiction) is about this guy (Morgan Spurlock) who takes on an experiment: to eat nothing but McDonald's for 1 month! It's incredible... it's inspiring ... and it will pretty much scare the poop out of fast-food eaters.

In the beginning of the movie, I was practically salivating at the McD's he was guzzling down - but by Morgan's Day 3, I was feeling so sick just looking at the food. Hahahahaha. Isn't that just brill! And then I felt so inspired to work out, I remembered what it was like when I spent those 3 (long... hard .... longer-than-eternity) months in 2006 losing 10 kgs - just that this time, I can't think why I would subject myself to eating until I feel sick!

Only thing is that I went a bit too far on the stairs and wound up panting like I had just run a mara-frigging-thon. Also didn't help that I was carrying the 2kg weights... sometimes the weights give you a REALLY good idea of what every extra kilogram feels like!

I think I'll do an experiment of my own, see what life WITHOUT McD's for 1 month is like. :)

OH AND YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE MOVIE FOR FREE (AND it's perfectly legal) :D

On a final note - American Idol finalists are "THE DAVIDS", like I had hoped for! :D
Who will win?

Will it be David Cook, the talented, sexy rocker?


Or will it be the high school sweetheart with the predictable but predictably pleasant voice, David Archuleta?

Oh yeah. Btw, I prefer David Archuleta more than David Cook! XP

The first name of the winner will definitely be David... XP
