So…. as above…. anyone wants to join me?
I am now sub 140! yes! Yes! YES! 139.4kg….
although still heavy (or infact damn heavy!), I am still happy that I am losing weight…
Today is the 4th session, and I now weight 140.8kg.
I lost a total of 3.7kg since I started the treatment.
all these meeting is killing me…. I need time for my family….
anyway, going for my 4th session of acupuncture today…. lets see how many kgs I have shed…
went back for the 3rd session after work.
current weight: 141.9kg
Lost another 1.9kg…. thats more like it… says the doctor…
Total lost: 144.6-141.9=2.7kg
next session, 7th Mar
Went back today to the slimming center…
my weight…. 143.8kg
I lost 800g… still not ideal enough, doctor says… wah laoz…
So I went for the slimming session, and went on to IKEA to get the $24 computer table.
On the way home, the family felt hungry and wanted to get them some food. And because of my new diet, we are pretty lost on where to eat.
Drove to Clementi, wanting to eat the XO Fish Beehoon, but they are not open.
Then suddenly remembered that we have not had dumplings (饺子) for the longest of time.
Drove to Bt Batok East Ave 5, and saw (from the car park) that someone is manning the shop. Tore coupons, and we prepared for an assult.
Reached the front of the coffee shop, and kns! its under renovation!
But hey, Botak Jones is opening a branch here!
Address:
Block 233 Bukit Batok East Avenue 5
#01-53
Singapore 650233
Please try the shop selling dumplings (饺子) and noodles （炸酱面）. Cheap and good.. trust me!
So anyway, I din get to eat all the food that I would really like to have before starting the diet… guess someone is helping me to kick start the regime.
For those who know me personally, most would know that I have been putting on weight through the years.
However, I have made up my mind to slim down, or at least cut some weight. Thus, I signed up with Aimin Slimming Hospital (爱民减肥医院） at Starhub Center.
Its a slimming hospital based in Tianjin, China, and has many successful examples.
Its $1888, for 30 sessions of acupuncture, and to follow their diet for the next 3 months at least.
They do have massage for specific location slimming as well, and that cost $888. Not interested in that, so I have no more information.
Coming back, I paid up, and went straight for the acupuncture session.
Took the weight, and damn! I weight 144.6kg! And that has already gone down actually, as when I started going gym in Nov 07, the weighing machine (which can take up to 150kg), cannot show any figures.
So, 20+ needles were poked on my flabby stomach, and legs. And let me tell you, its not a comfortable feeling. Its not painful at all though, but it feels sore, like having a very sour feeling at the needle points when it hits your acu points. However that goes off shortly, and the needles stays in for 30mins.
I have to go everyday for the next 2 days, and twice a week thereafter, until the 30 sessions are over.
The basic principal is simple, the acupuncture, will make you not feel hungry.
Following the diet, of 1200 cals, your body will start burning the body fats.
And with less intake, your stomach will start to get used to having less food.
It is sustainable on its own, since by the end of the 30 sessions, your stomach would be used to having less food. And therefore, your intake will be less, and your body is already used to all the new “settings”.
However, you will still need to take your meals, although you do not feel hungry, so as to be healthy.
I was abit skeptical at first, because I am a person who will blackout when I feel hungry, and with less food intake, the chances of this happening is rather high. But since I paid, might as well give it a try.
Any questions? Please do ask… I am more than happy to share my experience, since not many people talks about it online
