So it has been a little while since my last blog post - just about 3 years!
A LOT has happened in my life the last 3 years, but this post is not about the past, but about the future.
Several of you may have seen the movie 'Hunger Games' or may have read the book or atleast have heard of it. I fall in the last category - I've heard of it, but haven't seen the movie or read the book yet.
And about a week ago, a buddy of mine (Jason) shared about "Hungry for Change" where we eat what people who earn less than $2 per day eat. Click this link to know more - Trade As One
So, for the next 5 days, I'm only going to drink water and eat one lb (pound) each - Oats, Rice & Beans
I shouldn't eat other veggies or fruits, coffee or juice, candies or nuts (this is gonna be difficult!!)
I usually skip breakfast and a banana is all I eat in the morning. So eating oats for breakfast the next five days is actually something I can look forward to.
Lunch on the other hand is a whole different story. I have a good lunch in some local downtown place. To just eat rice and beans - a smaller than normal quantity, is going to be challenging.
Dinner should be ok.
People who know me well, know that I don't like to cook. But I have to make an exception this time and use the simple recipe that I was provided. The beans are soaking in cold water right now.
I plan on blogging once a day for the next five days to document my progress....
And if more than half of the world's population lives on this, I should be able to do it as well, right?
Let's see........
