No-Rice-Policy Ends
It's been a week since I start my own No-Rice Policy which serves as my own penitence this Holy Week. Tonight, Easter Sunday, is the end of this penance and finally, Tomorrow... I can go back to my 'normal' eating habit. #yehey!
So what I've learned from this No-Rice-Policy-Thing ? I will say Discipline. Disiplina sa Pagkain. 'Nung Wednesday, parang nag-flasback yung sinabi sa akin ng P.E. Instructor ko, sabi niya: "Kapag tamad ka nang mag-exercise...Dapat atleast you watch what you eat. And have some discipline on eating. Hindi pwedeng busog ka na nga, pero dahil nakita mo yung paboritong mong pagkain...pipilitin mo pa ring kumain. Dapat alam mo when to say ENOUGH and when to say NO to temptations".

No Rice For Me This Holy Week ?
NO RICE FOR ME FOR THE ENTIRE HOLY WEEK. Yap! You read it correctly dude. I will not allow myself to consume any rice of any kind starting today (Palm Sunday) 'til Saturday. I'm not doing this to lose some weight or to prepare myself for some beach body contest. On the other hand, I'am doing this because I want it to serve as my own little sacrifice this holy week.
I came to this decision last month... 'Nung matupad yung hiling ko kay God na manalo naman sana ako sa Cake Decorating Competition kasi nakakahiya na kung matatalo na naman ako kasi pangatlong beses ko nang sumali dun. Nung hinihiling ko yun sabi ko sa sarili ko na kapag nanalo ako hindi ako magra-rice sa Holy Week.
I know to some people, the no-rice-thing may look shallow and funny at the same time. Pero para sa akin, serious yun at mahirap i-accomplish dahil for me.. a meal is nothing without rice. and I'm sure most of you can relate to that unless you are filthy rich who don't eat rice on a regular basis.
