Howdy

So I got roped into this by my darling little sis, ms.menaka raman. Probably as retaliation for making her work out when she was on holiday with me. oh well.
So let me quickly introduce myself, since the rest of you seem to know each other rather well. Im a scientist plodding through a post-doc on the other side of the pond from you folks. I have an active almost 3 year old, which you would think should keep me ship-shape. Alas, that is not the case. So after a festive holiday season with sister and family where we ate, drank and made merry (and put on an alarming 5lbs in 2 weeks), I decided enough is enough…time to lose said pounds and look like a skinny bitch (can I say that here??).
Im no runner but dont disqualify me!! While I wait for all the snow to melt here in Boston, I work out every morning with the wonderful “Jillian mami” and “Tony mama”. If Im felling bored I even try silly hop-hop dances and carmen electra’s strip tease. Its more hilarious than sexy Im afraid -think 30+ indian mami trying to shake that booty. It was even funnier when my sister and I both did it together. Most of the time we just ended up in a giggling mess on the floor.
so thats it for now. Thought I should quit lurking…will post when I start running…hopefully.
