fantastic!

Agree, i dont buy into the big bone excuse as well eventhough i've been told for YEARS that i am naturally big bone and will never ever be as skinny as my younger sister. I tend to carry my weight in my hips and shoulder so not only i look "fertile" i also looked like someone who can carry 3 rugsacks of rice. LOL. but i've…

inspiring! you have such a strong spirit to survive your past, you have now stronger and more blessed spirit to move further in life!

i am facing the same problem! i'm not sure how to advice you on this because im still early in my journey. Good luck to you dear.

actually, if doing it 12 minutes a week is enough to start activating your body. Extremely short burst of high intensed exercise but kept in under 30 sec to 3 minutes. Learnt it from BBC! "The Turth about Exercise" :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyQSzx0ofto

In Malaysia we have TGIF restaurants, when they first started one plate could feed a family of four. Now they have to downsize it because most Malaysians cant finished it or share it with the other family members, not exactly a money making formula to have large portion. XD Also, our McDonald portions are PATHETIC.…

Masterfully said! 1. I didnt feel any different before and after weight lost, as i am in the same long relationship. Its a personallity thing for me as i was often being labeled as a very independent woman and thus not "romantically-friendly" lol. But i am more confident with my body with my fiance, more... saucy and…

thank you! yes you are right, i need to reprogram my mind to forget about the number on the scale, after all, the shopkeeper doesnt ask what kg dress you fit in is what size you are ;)

i think he refered to the spinach in my original photo, sorry im still clueless about uploading pics

yum! thats a very nice meal, is that marinated chicken breast?

my muffin top shrunk and my jeans are looser :)

you have every right to be proud! what an amazing transformation!

DeTaart, i love okra! i figured as much i need to go to an asian area to get supplies, but in Stevenage i dont see any asian market, might need to look harder, i guess i'd have to switch to bell pepers! whats the common home cook vege in UK?

thanks! aha so its called okra, is it common in the UK? i'll be moving there next year and i'm a little apprehensive about the lifestyle changes so i'm educating myself on English names for objects. This by no means meant that my English sucked, but when you converse daily in mandarin and Cantonese, you never learn the…

Congrats on your wedding! (marriage?) Wow you are one sexy mama, hahaha, great job! I'm also losing weight to look good on my wedding day. I'd love to hear how you resist comfort eating coz i am applying for a marriage visa in UK and it is stressing us big time because of all the red tapes :)

Rant! Grunt! Scream! Cry! but dont give up! you deserve better then this! No tear is more bitter then tears of regret from the future :)

i think practicing making "conscious decision" is very important, really give yourself 10 sec to think before grabbing that bag of food of your typical habit. I practiced this while out shopping with my sister and we both wanted to grab a fried chicken. Instead i said no and opt for sushi instead. :) although that fried…

lol! deskercise indeed!!

thank you all for your encouragements! I guess being an Endomorphic person i gain weight just breathing! lol And i really doubt my food diary alot, although im eating very small portion. I am eating chinese food with alot of sauce and dressing. (home cooking) Good thing i dont have the habit of dabbing in more sauce. Thank…

hi just added you, dont worry about being judge, we all have good days and bad days :)

Wow, drastic results in 4 months, you are my inspiration!

thats amazing! congrats!

but... eating more protein doesnt result in me bulking up like she-hulk? O_O i have this fear and i build muscle easily but hard to burn fat. Are there any other ways besides more protein? thanks ya'll for that knowledge though, so if i take more protein (ie meat) what kind of exercise do i do to not bulk up?

thank you all! these are all wonderful advice and yes, it will definately click with the budget story! Shrink the size and grow the money! Why must weddings be so expensive TT_TT, i am now constantly hungry though. Staying on a 1200 calories isnt easy, but i'll have to soldier on.

i guess the important thing is that we eat good calories rather then calories from junk food, although i have to say, apples are NOT filling at all... AT ALL. XD

kgprice11 : thank you for the suggestion! i didnt think of doing that, thats a wonderful idea! rachyrach0211: ouch, i hope you are all recovered now, unfortunately water aerobics are not readily available in my country, something i've always wanted to try :( LooptLou25: lucky you! i bulk up easily because of my body type i…

thank you so much, i think so too.

You're cheating! that cant be you! haha, omg you are fabulous!

hello there, what are your aspiration and inspiration? :D

an old sayin in chinese goes something like "a challenge might be a gift in disguise, a blessing might be a pitfall in the dark", great positive thinking! How do you manage with the discomfort in your neck? that is a huge hair raiser for me.
