Happy Public Holiday!
Hi Guys, so I guess those who had followed my blog knew what happened last week. After all the mourning and unhappiness, its time to FOCUS. Well, something about me is… when is start to binge and eat sweet stuff…. I am either stressed or sad. I was not able to focus on my diet at all! Thus explains the weight gain.
From this day forward, I must be DISCIPLINED again. “Food is the most abused anxiety drug. Exercise is the most under-utilized antidepressant.” With this quote I saw in Facebook, I shall be more focus and remember food is a killer!
Well, I got to admit that I am really a foodie, I can drive to new places to enjoy good food and try out new stuffs! I still could do that.. All I have to do is refrain from carbs.. Remember Dukan diet I told you guys about? My weight did gain back because of my binge eating past week, I was literally hungry every minute. It might be due to stress and sadness though. During or even after you have completed all phases of this diet, you MUST NOT binge eat ok!
Today, will be day 1 of my diet, I will probably do it only have 2 weeks then proceed to stablization. I realized I was too skinny when I was 51.8kg.. so yeap, this time round, my aim is 53kg. That’s good enough for me already!
FOCUS FOCUS FOCUS. NO MORE CARBS NO MORE DESSERT NO MORE SUGAR. Thereafter, I can slowly introduce carbs to my body. I CAN DO IT!
Oh yes, something important that I must always remind myself. DO NOT be lazy, Laziness kills. When Im sad… EXERCISE!
ALRIGHT. Here we go! watch me shrink!
=D

Feeling down…..
Hi all, here I am.. blogging… my previous post was about wedding bells, such a happy post…. Now… its a totally different one…
There are so many things running in my mind now.. work colleagues and the top most… my future father-in-law.
Lets talk about my future father-in-law (:
He just left us….. all of a sudden… by a silent killer named: Heart attack. Im feeling super down coz I do not have a chance to call him Pa.. or rather during tea ceremony: “Pa, drink tea.” It will forever be something that I won’t have a chance to do.. As a Christian, We believe that once dead, there is no such thing as offering tea to tablet etc… So I say, I will never have a chance. Sitting here, just came back from last day of wake, and tomorrow will be cremation (he is a non-believer)… have thoughts running in my mind….
He is a good dad who raised 3 filial son together with mum.. who work all his life supporting the family (even told him that he could stop working and enjoy life, he refused).
We planned to organize a trip to China (his fav. country) next year, but its all too late…
He was going to be grandpa next year march…..
I will definitely miss him, and wedding without him being around will be different too.. He will always be remembered…
Despite his departure, I believe God has a plan for all these to happen, for US not printing our invitation card up till now (less than 2 months to wedding), God planned it all. Thus, I believe God has a purpose…. This event also draw us closer to God, being baptised and born again, we should walk closer with Him, reading His words…
From this event, I’ve seen who are my friends and who are just superficial… I thank those who came down and extend their condolences to us. Although he is not my dad, Im really affected.Those who know me, knows how I really feel.. I thank those who texted me, sincerely asking how I felt, they couldn’t came because they just got married. On that day when things happen, i receive texts from some who do not feel like coming down and gave a lot of excuses, my thoughts were.. if you feel oblige, do not come.
Really appreciate some of your texts and appearance, it really does make a difference.
Well, sad things aside… Some things at work really makes me feel confuse… I have colleague who stab right in the back.. despite she knowing that we know she is backstabbing us… she can act as if nothing had happen.. I wonder how such person exist, how are they brought up. Seriously? your parents taught you how to backstab others? and then make yourself seem so poor thing? being so calculative at work even though you are just a junior? Even my newly join staff is still your senior btw, if you are talking about rank.. ha… typing all these just gave out a smirk on my face… Well, I guess you are just not well-taught. by whom, I have no idea.
During church on Sunday, I learnt something, God is sovereign. Be sovereign and do not say things that will harm others. For that, I will always remember to watch my temper.
I have another colleague who always speaks bad of others… create politics… make things seem so bad when its not that bad.. Tells you half of a story making you think that the whole thing is negative.
I AM SO TIRED OF ALL THESE. TIRED OF GOSSIPS, TIRED HEARING SOMEONE BADMOUTHING ANOTHER.
I’m leaving.. soon. I will continue to pray and let God decides where he wants to place me. Least I am some one who will leave since I said so, not a threat.
Guess I have thrown all my thoughts in this post. Once again, I really appreciate all those who came down and texted me asking me how I am.. Really really Thank you.
God Bless,
J.
Wedding Bells!!
Yes! Im getting married! Its the most one of the most blessed and happiest thing that can happen on earth! God has blessed me with a Godly man, what more can I ask for? I’m so excited that we are going to lead a new chapter of life together. I always emphasize that wedding is just a process, for the public eye see that you are getting married. Whats more important? The marriage.
What happens if its like an apple, healthy red looking on the outside, but rotten in the inside? Thats why, wedding to me is not important. Many couples may disagree, many will spend lots of money for that day, some even go in debt. Thus this is very unhealthy for a newly-wed couple! Think twice before spending!!
My wedding gown, I got it made by AnnTeoh at Delfi orchard, the reason why I got it designed was because of my church strict requirements. Thats why I have to had it designed. I really love it! It is very elegant, sophisticated and of course….. very covered up. Heh.. My body is only for the eyes of my hubby. =D
My photographer, Douglas Fun from Avenue 8. What can I say? Very professional and I love the pictures he takes. Using natural sunlight. The pictures you see in this post are taken from him but played in Channel News Asia.
My make up artist, Cleo Chang. I SERIOUSLY love her make up. Unlike other make up artist, her make up doesn’t make u look as if you are someone else.
After my wedding buffet in church… I shall reveal where I get my caterer and Dessert table. Hehe… esp…. the DESSERT TABLE.
My single life of staying home alone is going to be changed! WE are going to start staying together, living together. This is so exciting as its going to be different from our usual life. Can’t wait to live under the same roof together. =D
Our honeymoon! LONG WAITED? Even BETTER than the wedding. 14 days for going overseas and travelling together. Just the two of us. Excited or what! Can’t wait to reach to this Chapter!! Its going to be exciting, fun, something new, something long waited! <3<3<3
I truely sincerely Thank God for walking with us all these while. Preparing for wedding isn’t something easy. I Thank God for letting me see this whole wedding process in another perspective. Its a 3 person relationship, God, My hubby and I. Without this relationship, nothing is meaningful, nothing can be achieved. We are truely happy and blessed. I feel that I’m the happiest girl on earth!
Recently, Desmond and I got featured in CNA (Channel News Asia) for their programme called “In Fringe 2”
Initially I thought our segment will only be a few seconds! But, as we watch.. towards the end, its like our own show. Its such a great experience to have CNA filming us during our pre-wedding shoot. How many percent of couples will get this chance? It is so memorable. I can show it to my kids next time! Hehe..

Stablisation phase… FOREVER!!
I am 1 month plus into stablisation phase and my weight has maintained so far!
I am glad I have introduced two friends to get onto this diet! One of them has already lost.. 3kg? in attack phase.. the other.. still struggling!
Well, some of our body is resistant to weight loss, i guess it takes a little longer…. oh.. just got a message that she lost a total of 0.6kg!! She took the 2/0 rhythm which also means losing lower body but not upper body.. going into 5 days of normal diet, 2 days of puer protein..happy for her!
I guess in conclusion to dukandiet, we always have to hydrate and hydrate… drink lots of water to keep our kidney healthy… Due to the high intake of protein especially during attack phase and pure protein days. I had my blood tests done last month, during stablisation phase, all were normal.. Renal function is good, liver function is good.. Uric acid is normal. So guys.. the key is.. drink lots of water!
Rebound of weight? not that it has happened to me yet. Bear in mind, that there is one day of pure protein each week and we have to be strict about it! Okay. I admit, there are two weeks consecutively i skipped pp days, the reason was I was not well! Yes, the weighing scale showed no weight change.. but I didnt want a rebound of weight to take place… i went back on track! oh yes oh yes.. Dont forget your daily oat bran ok! and if you really want to go on this diet? I urge you to buy dukan diet book.. available at kinokuniya. read about it… prepare your oat bran.. understand how it works then start the diet.
There are 3 dukan products that helped me during this diet.
1. Whoosh http://www.shopdukandiet.com/supplements/diuretic
2. Cellulite control http://www.shopdukandiet.com/supplements/cellulite-control
3. Appetite and Fat Control http://www.shopdukandiet.com/supplements/appetite-control
you can also sign up coaching with Dr. dukan like what my sister did when she was on this diet alone. He will monitor your weight and calculate your true weight!
Visit http://www.dukandiet.com
Anyway, I am not advertising for him.. I guess he doesn’t need advertisement. I am just sharing what most of us wants! lose weight! Be it overall, or just the bottom… it can be done! =D
Need to thank my sister for guiding me through this diet! supporting me throughout! =D ❤
I hope you girls out there will achieve your true weight!

Quarter life crisis..
I’m seriously experiencing this quarter life crisis thingy. hahaha. Oh yes! Congrats to myself in ending consolidation phase! and yes! my weight did not rebound at all after introducing carbs, fruits.. etc.. LAST OF ALL! Stablisation phase! THIS IS FOR LIFE!! hahaha!
Alrighty, back to my quarter life crisis thingy. okay, i love my job, but i do not like a 1 or 2 colleague. Well, they are not mean people but those two are not that competent. It sucks when you only have each other to rely on and worst thing is that incompetent one is ur “boss”. Who frequently ask you what to do for a patient.. so on.. Please tell me how to respect such boss. Teach me yo. I dont hate her, i just find it difficult to respect her.
Oh well, thing is, I can simply quit what I’m doing now, but i love my patients, I love talking to them, I dont work for money for promotion. I work for God. Yes, maybe I just have to focus, should not complain about my colleague since I’m not perfect either. but… CANNOT TAKE IT LAH. sigh.
Ultimately, Im gonna get married, have kids.. look after kids..thats the reason why i see promotion is not important, neither is money. Maybe I should go teach in kindergarten, teach God’s word! hehehe. Oh well, all are ideas. I’m only good in cannulating patient, communicating. I might be lousy at other stuff.. boooooo.
see, told ya, im into quarter life crisis. haha.
Im so busy recently, move house,housework. All about home! Anyway, Our little nest is going to be completed soon! Cant wait to move into our little humble home. =)
Alrighty! Will post pics when I moved in! Need contacts for ID? look for me! They are a team I can trust and I really wanna thank Shirley for introducing her cousin. Awesome work till now, after completion. I WILL update again about them, my place.. my job… my walk with God…!!

Consolidation Phase – The transition Diet (start date:19th Nov, End date: Jan 7th)
Hi all, Im currently in my consolidation phase! I started introducing carbs into my diet every day. Of course what is recommended by Dr. Dukan is 100% wholegrain, but its not easy to find.. so ended up with random carbs a portion a day!
Approximately 3 weeks from the start of my consolidation phase, I have not had any rebound. Initially, my body could not accept carbs.. my weight shot up to 54kg, then, i still continue with what I am supposed to take everyday. Currently weighing at 51.7kg. I am still able to enjoy celebration meal per week, not forgetting to go on pure protein every thurs. I guess it will fluctuate between 51.7kg- 53kg? But I am quite happy with this range already. Taking into consideration that I have not exercised 3 weeks now due to weather and injuries!
The 2nd half of my Consolidation phase, i will start to introduce 2 celebration MEAL a week, and 2 starchy food a week in addition to a portion of daily carbs, an apple a day. Looking forward to end my consolidation phase, till then, I have to be more disciplined!
#2 BE DISCIPLINED
