22 June - testing my first blog entry with my phone

Ha ha, this is going to be my first blog post with my mobile phone, cool~

22nd June - The world is not going to stop rotating...

The world is not going to stop rotating because of your sadness, life still goes on. Go out to the road now and look at the moving cars and constantly moving pedestrians, life still goes on...

If not for the rain, there won't be rainbow, follow your heart and don't think too much, what's going to happen will happen, if something good happens, it's great, if something bad happens, learn from it and move on. Don't waste time thinking so much, use that time to do something more beneficial to yourself or the society~

Cheers~ It's going to be a great day ahead~

18th June - I can't help it~

I can't help it, sometimes, listening to the woes of others make me feel that I'm much more fortunate than them and this is what keeps me going. I know I'm very bad to think like this, but...

All these makes me feel more contented and treasure life more!

17th June - Great Idea for your weight loss journey~

Saw this from a Chinese article, not sure if it will work, but still, you can try.

Instead of setting a goal of reducing 10kg in 3 months time, why not start from your eating habit. Like reducing the amount of fried food intake, reduce food intake that are rich in sugar content, kick away your supper habit...

As time goes by, you will gradually see weight loss and it just happen because you kick away the bad habit instead of thinking you are on a diet everyday, it's quite a good concept, izzn't it?

If you understand chinese, read this,

15th June - My thoughts~

Now that I look different, things are really different, like I mentioned before, everyone look/smile/talk to you differently, I still need some time to adapt to these changes.

Having being ignored/mocked at/sneered at for the last 25 years, being popular because that you are the biggest girl in school. People are popular because they are pretty, slim, having a really good figure, and me being popular because I was big, ha ha ha... Nobody would ever know how I feel unless you rode that same route as me. Some people may tell you, it's all over, you have a new life now, but it's certainly easier to be said than to be done, time is all I need now. Getting ready and accepting a new way of treatment, but my heart is still the same, I will not change, for what I have encountered/experience have laid a strong foundation for my character.

Most importantly, health is wealth, and be contented with who you are today, be it that you are fat, tall, slim or short. I mean what do we have got to lose? At the end of the day, we can't bring anything with us... Imagine to be lying in the coffin and asking yourself, have you live your life to the fullest and do you have any regrets~

Cheers~

10th June - Yeah!!! A total lost of 37kg!

Woohoo, congratulation to myself, it has been 1 year, I posted this on my Facebook.

今天是我减肥的一周年,说快不快,说慢不慢,很感激生边的家人和朋友的支持,我终于做到了。在这一年,我学了很多,尝试了很多不同种类的运动,也经历了很多挫折,但,我都克服了那些难关。瘦了,别人对你的眼光于态度都变了,可是我还是我,独特的我,我的心还是一样,很满足现在的我,健康就是财富。很开心旅程到了终点,也很感伤旅程结束了。But, I believe a new journey awaits me, 加油吧,娟。

Don't worry, I will not be abandoning my blog, just won't be updating it so frequently, things are a bit tight on my side, can't commit daily updates anymore, thanks for all your understanding, do email me if you have any questions regarding weight loss, I would be delighted to answer all your questions~ :D

I may not have hit my 40kg target but I'm contented with what I am and what I have now...



There's nothing I can't achieve now, I am all ready to fight for my life!
