Our Indian culture is full of days of festivities and fasting. No matter which religion you belong to, you always have a fasting day in your life. Muslims have Roze, Hindus have Navratras, Christians have Lent and Hindus and Sikhs have Karva Chauth! Even if you are new to this custom, or have spent ages keeping these fasts, you will love what we've gathered here about how does it really feel to skip food for a day!
So get ready to laugh out loud in the next few minutes and rush to your kitchen and grab some food.
Here are your feelings for the days when you craved to do "Chomp Chomp" and "Om Nomm Nomm"...
Forgetting it's Your Fast
Getting up from the bed, slowly picking up an apple to munch and ...
"Oh Shit!...Did someone see?"
Preparing Breakfast Can be Tedious
It's your fast by the way, not others. So you better start cooking for them.
Voices in the background: "Calender Khana Laao..Calender Khana Laao"
Your Loving Husbands ... Uhm Really?
Just when you are about to light the flame of the stove, your husband comes to you and says:
"Chodo kya banaogi, hum log bahar se Cholley Bhature, Chaat Papdi aur Ras Malai mangwaa lete hain".
Watching Others Eat is The Worst Feeling Ever
So, the food is here (and it looks sumptuous!) Now this is a terrible sight on the day of the fast. All you see is... FOOOODD
Pretending You're Not Listening
Somebody from the dining area asks you to taste some. *With that Smirk*
"Arre thoda sa kha lo...kuch nahi hoga"... *Fake Laugh"
Your Love for Leftovers Escalates Suddenly
No matter how hungry you are, you cannot just say it. But you cannot even leave it. So here it comes. "Thoda sa bacha lena pls...baad me kha lenge"
Alas!!!
Avoiding Distractions
The worst part is when someone from your friends circle comes up to you and asks you ...
"Was that noise from your stomach? Kahin Tumhe Bhookh toh nahi Lag Rahi???"
*Arghhh*
Listing Your Favourite Items!
You keep wondering "When will the day end"??? And prepare a list of things you'll eat when the fast gets over.
There is Always Some Or The Other Work Waiting For You
Just when you were about to doze off, there's a door bell, 20 relatives and a lot of work for you! SURPRIZE!!!
Controlling That Mouse in Your Stomach Gets Really Tough
It seems like everybody is talking about food and the mouse in your stomach is listening, running, jumping and thumping inside.
Sensing Food Everywhere
"Bas hone hi wala hai time". Your senses are so strong right now. You can smell food faster than your dog on this day.
It's Time ..It's Time ..It's Time...
You almost run at the speed of light to break your fast. This is the most active moment of your day!
