after 4 years...(with picture)
4 years ago, I was at 312lbs, I really didn't care about myself and thought it was already hopeless to try and better myself, it wasn't until 2011 when I had sudden chest pains in the middle of the night waking me up, causing me to panic, I went to the doctor to check it out and he told me that I was borderline diabetic,…

a question about eating.
so, I have talked to a friend of mine who said that it is better to stand while you are eat, rather than sitting down because the body is circulating better and burning more calories, as opposed to sitting down while eating. upon hearing that, it does make some sense to me, but my question is: does eating while standing…

My success story with pictures. (110+lbs lost)
So, here I am, sharing my success story, which for me it is still hard to believe that I made it this far since I have been over 270+lbs most my life. I really couldn't find good photos of myself when I was still considered very obese, and I realized that I subconsciously hated getting my picture taken because deep down, I…

weight loss and social impacts
so, to make a long story short, when I was at a whopping 293-298 lbs, I would be with a group of people (a mixture of best friends and people who are just acquaintance), most times I would be that person that was least talked to and find myself just hanging around my closer friends staying quiet and not saying a word,…

I was recently in an auto accident, and long story short, the guy hit me and gave me whiplash. the doctors told me not to do any physical activity for atleast 5-7 days minimum, I already feel like I am lagging behind my workout routine since I do a quick jog every morning for 30-45min and then do some sit ups and push ups.…

Creamy balsamic dressing.
this is a mixture I just conjured on day, I think it's pretty good and some of my friend's said it was really good as well, so I'm just sharing this for those who would like to make their own dressing instead of buying already made dressing. 3 tbsp of non-fat sour cream (or reduced fat if you want) 1 tbsp of balsamic…

Awesome alternative to noodles!
so long story short, I came home after work and ended up falling asleep before my scheduled dinner time, and of course woke up at 9:45pm hungry. I really did not feel like making a normal portioned dinner, even though the whole "eating late at night will make you gain weight faster" is a myth, that's when I remembered that…

It all started when I was at my local Asian supermarket and noticed they sold natto there, I've read all about the benefits and decided to try it out, at first it was weird, but after eating it for a few days, I really started to enjoy it.…
