Two weeks after TRA plus 6 days of AgeLoc R2

I started taking ageLoc R2 last Monday, 7 May, I find that I have more stamina and feel more energised in the day. There is a calmness with the energy, it is not those stressful type of energy spike.

I didn't lose much weight this week, weighing 62.0 kg this week. Measured yesterday.

I exercise more, about 1hr walk n jog plus static exercises at the fitness corner. I also climb 8 flights of stairs after exercise. The frequency is about twice a week.

I gained back my muscles of 0.5% and I lost 700g of fats this week. Overall, there is a total of 0.9 kg drop in fats in 2 weeks.

Happy Mothers' Day!

Wishing all mothers and mothers-to-be a happy Mothers' Day!
Here's what my hubby bought for his mummy! Tulips! Too bad my mum does not appreciate such flowers...

One week after TRA...

Just 4.5 years ago, I was 51 kg and I thought that I was FAT.

1.5 years ago, I was 63 kg. I stopped weighing myself.

2.5 weeks ago, I was 65.3kg and I had a persistent cough. I could not sleep well at night and my chest was very heavy. I thought that the side effect from pneumonia  (Oct 2010) Pneumonia Post in Oct 2010will never go away. 

I found it difficult to climb stairs and feel terrible pain when climbing stairs. I was often sick and drowsy from medicine or illness. I went to clinics and hospitals many times but I was not able to recover. I was not well to blog often.

I even visited a polyclinic and I got this. ( I didn't request for a MC though...)

This was like a wake-up call... I had to lose weight. By Oct, I must be 62.1 or less. I could not do it. I tried eating so little food daily these 3 years but still I was overweight. I don't even snack most of the time.

At that time, my friend introduced me to the TRA (The Right Approach) by Nu Skin.
His was a successful case after TRA. I was quite skeptical at the thought of spending $2k++ on weight management.

I went to the talk by the M.A.D.E group. I didn't believe them initially because I thought the MLM type of marketing is not suitable for me. I wanted to improve my health and manage my weight.
I listened to tips from the talk. ( Had to pay $10  for the food.) People gave their testimonials and applause was given to them. Their success stories seem unbelievable.

I told myself I am going to give them a chance. No harm trying to change my eating habits.
I tried changing my lifestyle by eating 3333 (3 portions fruits, 3 portions veg, 3 portions proteins and 3 portions carbo).  It worked! I didn't even have to eat the TRA and my weight dropped to 63.9 kg in a week. That's a drop of 1.4kg...

Imagine! I ate more and I lost weight!!! That's amazing.

Of course it took a lot of discipline. At times I had food cravings too.

After my weight dropped by more than 1 kg within a week, I went to another talk.
 I paid $2080 for the TRA pack which is shown below.

One of each stuff that was in the TRA.

The trimshake (milkshake) which is made of whey flour, along with the shaker and a metal coil inside.

Even the food stall auntie asked me: "how can like that, eat only vegetables ?" I explained that I had other food but she just didn't believe me. I just needed the vegetables for my breakfast as I have the rest packed.

I bought tupperware for my fruits and vegetables because sometimes I cannot get them at my workplace, especially after 11am.

Eat vegetables!

Breakfast! Surprisingly, eating more is better than eating very little as eating less makes your body go into those 'hibernating' state where metabolism rate decreases.

Fruit portion like Half a guava with skin would be good as a fist size portion for a meal.
3 eggs with just one or zero yolk gives you a fist size portion for a meal.

Ate only half the rice and all the vegetables and meat. Meat portion must exclude the bones.

Eventually, I signed up with M.A.D.E and paid $200. The $200 was to offset the rental and food for the talks (a total of 8 talks). They gave some papers, a file, measuring tape and a food diary.

Every night, I touched my tummy and I feel it is flatter. My cough reduced tremendously after one day of taking TRA. I do not feel the breathlessness and I could sleep better. I have dropped 2 cm along my waistline in a week. I did a bit of brisk walking as exercise as I am still very heavy...

Now a week after trying TRA, I lost 1.6kg and I am at 62.3kg, which is very close to the target Oct 12 weight recommended by the automatic weighing machine at the polyclinic.

Inspired after a few days, I ordered one set of AgeLoc R2 and the coaches said it would be very good to pair them together as more weight loss will be experienced. Monday, I will go and collect it. I will keep you posted on my progress.

Those who are interested in TRA and/or AgeLoc R2, please feel free to email me at jennpoh@gmail.com. TRA is from Nu Skin and Nu Skin is available in many countries all over the world. I will be glad to share with you how I did it and how to purchase the items. You need to have discipline as it is a three month effort for TRA and you definitely need coaches/ an upline who really can teach you well.

Food stall chef - Her
Me: One plate black carrot cake please...
Her: Ok

I saw a baby cockroach crawling at the chlli sauce area which is separated from the cooking area by a glass wall*
Her: That will be 3 dollars please.
Me: Miss, there is a cockroach here.

Her hand reached out for the $3
Her: There are cockroaches everywhere here. No need to panic. As long as there are eggs, there will be cockroaches.

I looked at the food grading certificate. What an irony. Its an A.

Tribute to my dad. Wake up Daddy!

More than 3 weeks ago, I posted a link on facebook to write a tribute for their dads. 

I wrote a tribute then but I did not submit it.

He is still in a coma after a stroke and car accident about 4 days ago on Sunday morning. Until now, we do not know what happened that fateful dawn. We only knew that a blood vessel burst and a blood clot formed in the left brain, causing a stroke which left him unable to move his right part of the body, hand and leg. Did the stroke occur first? Or did he get a shock just before the head on car collision occurred?


As left brain controls speech, my dad cannot speak or swallow. He also cannot cough out his phlegm. Right now, he is fighting infection and high fever. Doctors said he has a high chance of a second stroke which might cause death or complicate matters.

When I saw the adverts by KFC focusing on 'Dad and Family' as the theme, I was reminded of the past when he brought all 5 kids and my mum to the restaurant which had white plates and metal cutlery. He often brought us to the KFC restaurant on Sun at 7pm when we were children some 20 yrs ago... And we have not been having dinner together ever since we grew up... That's the saddest part, we didn't treasure the times we had together and when things happened, then we get together. Just one year ago, I lay on the hospital bed due to pneumonia, he visited me. but now he is the one lying there. I wished I could have suffered for him. I wished I had spent more time with him. I wish he wake up and recover soon.
I wish it was just a nightmare.

This was what I wrote for my dad more than 3 weeks ago...

You spoke to us in dialect,

Peppered with vulgarities,

The words  which we lack the lect,

As schools  taught us English and Chinese…

You made us tremble in fear…

Never to be in the red,

To get full marks every year,

Otherwise our butts would not be spared…

You, the sole breadwinner knight…

Woke up earlier than us,

Worked from day till night,

Strengthened with calluses…

You brought us on lorry rides…

Our hair flipping wildly in the wind,

We could not afford luxury cars,

But love made all seven of us blind…

Through good and bad times…

You are the world’s greatest dad,

I repeat, throughout all times,

You are still the world’s greatest dad…

Daddy, Please wake up!

Spoilt Sizzix Big Shot.

My Sizzix was spoilt after a few uses, I also didn't have much time to use it. I sent it in for repair a week after I bought it. The shop sales assistant told me it was misalignment... Hopefully I didn't have to pay or buy a new one... Keep my fingers crossed... I could only get it back two weeks later... so sad, I want to make a farewell card for my dear colleague who was going to retire but I guess I will have to contend with whatever I have. I have the impulse to get the Vintaj but one of the sales assistants told me it is not very compatible with the Sizzix dies.
