Health Tests

Wah... didn't expect myself to be so healthy wor...
Results of my health tests done at company sponsored health screening:

Blood pressure: 114/79 mmHg
Blood sugar: 5.6 mmol/L
Blood cholesterol: < face="verdana">BMI: 21.9 kg/m2
Skin Carotenoid Level: 46,000 (2nd best level) - only few out of 200+ were in this level !!

This skin carotenoid thingy was measured with a biophotonic scanner to check the stable carotenoid level in your skin which is a good indicator of the antioxidant status in your body. Of course the higher the reading the better la.

Woahahahaha... although i'm very happy with the result but i don't think its that accurate lor. My cholesterol level was at 6.2 during my last blood test (if i remember correctly). Hmmm... its time to do a proper blood test since the last one i did was 2 years ago.

If i must say what i have done right to get these results are:
1. daily intake of fresh fruit juices
2. regular exercise

Burn the flabs !!!

Finally I can go to the gym more often now ! My darling daughter has started solid, I don't have to worry about my milk production not meeting her consumption... yahoo! But still can't spend that much time in the gym la... she 'knows' what time i'm suppose to come back from work and she actually 'look' for me! So, to make sure i spend every little time in gym so wisely and productively; i've decided to take up Personal Training!

Woahhh... not cheap leh... Paid RM 2,360 for 25 + 5 sessions... which can last me for around 3 months if I go for 2 sessions per week la. My trainer gave me an assessment in my 2nd session. Not bad wor... BMI at 23+, still within ok range. He is actually confident that i can loose 5 kg within 3 months! But i'm keeping my expectation low la, knowing that i have 'stubborn fat gene' from my mom.

Have actually attended 13 sessions now... think i've lost about 1kg only... but colleagues have been telling me they can see obvioius results ... yay!! Have to admit i have not been very discipline on the food department la... ok ok, will cut down on noodles at lunch and opt for healthier food like vegetarian mix rice?

Printed Cloth Diapers




Sooooooooo cute! These are darling daughter's latest cloth diapers, one is dalmation printed 'minky' diaper (its actually 'hairy') and another is retro pattern printed from Blueberry. I just couldn't resist myself when i first saw them... ahaha... they look even cuter on her tiny bump :o)

There are so many more cute designs from Blueberry, but they are just too expensive; almost RM100 per diaper !! I am now waiting for Happy Heiny's One-size 'Cow' Printed Diaper to be instock. I still think Happy Heiny's One-size is the best cloth diaper. It has 3 rows of snap buttons for better size adjustment and better yet; its one of the cheapest around! (now comes free with 1 big and 1 small microterry inserts with every diaper purchase)








Die... i'm addicted to cloth diaper shopping :op
