The good news is I managed to drop 8 pounds in 2 weeks (mostly by regulating diet and drinks and increasing running distances). The bad news is that I am one TSA agent asking me to raise my hands up from having a really embarrassing moment 🙂

I was explaining my problem of loose pants to Sharmila. Her solution – she being a woman – was for me to buy couple of new sets of trousers. My solution – me being an engineer – was to get my drill bit and make another hole in the belt.

While I was trying to do the whole drilling thing, she came out and demanded to know what was I doing. “Solving problems. Not buying solutions”, I said.

I think no dinner for me tonight. I better go back and drill another hole in my belt 🙂
