P.S: I see Xu Tag wear it all the time, so I called it 'lap sap glasses'.

TWO weeks into my slimming efforts and things are hanging by the thread over on the up side.
I’m feeling healthier, fitter – and definitely thinner – and the plan seems to be getting easier to follow by the day (at least I try to think of it in such a way).
I’ve found various guilt-free food to eat out, such as nicoise salad, rocket salad, Caesar salad with less dressing, and the beauty of this is that I can eat as much of them as I want.
As I’ve stocked my fridge up with grapes, kiwi, strawberries and bananas I’m rarely hungry and my cravings are starting to diminish – though the one thing that’s driving me to distraction is the look of the tiramisu as I walk down Jalan Telawi passing by Alexis.
Normally it wouldn’t even occur to me to want a slice of rum soaked fingers with mascarpone cheese, but now it’s forbidden fruit it seems like the ultimate treat to my sweet-starved tastebuds.
The other thing that’s proving hard to stick to is my chocolate allowance. The one thing I can’t live without is my Godiva praline. I chain-eat – whenever one box is finished I still have like 5 boxes piled in my fridge.
This doesn’t fit in very well with having to stick to about 8 pieces of praline a day.
But despite my mind playing tricks on me and taunting me with char kuey teow, bbq fried chicken, char siew and banofee pie – as well as piled up golden boxes of Godiva – I’ve been a good girl and pretty much stuck to the plan (well, i slacked a bit but I controlled myself by just taste eating – not more than 2 bites)
To prove it – and to help with my willpower – I’m writing down every morsel that passes my lips on a child-like diet sheet that encourages me to give myself a smiley or a sad face at the end each day (Shin Chan style, sticker ‘budak baik’ and ‘sticker ‘budak jahat’). Last 2 days wasn’t very impressive because I was exposed to many temptations.
The devil in me wants to have a night on the tiles and then draw a face with a massive grin, downing a bottle of wine, and so far I’m getting nearer. That’s why I‘m writing this down to make myself aware of it.
The main thing keeping me going is the fact that I’ve lost 2kg already which proves the plan works and as I publish this, I am hoping for another 2kg at the next weigh-in.
So for now I’m wolfing piles of fruit, tossing rocket salad and mixing meal replacement powder with ice cold water, in the hope of squeezing into those size 8 jeans in two weeks time.
kyanmay: Why did the people push aside the wrecked motorcycle after the accident, they just left to the hospital? *thinking*
Did you see a person lying on the floor?
Yeah, I think I saw it too.
OMG~! Literally, WTH~! It was 4am on Jalan Cheras, there I spotted a man lying on the middle of the road. Of all the emergency numbers I saved on my phonebook, I panicky asked my friend, ‘Is the emergency line 999?' I parked my car further in front and made the call while my friend is looking out if he has any movement.
After two rings,
Operator: Selamat pagi, encik. Boleh saya bantu?
kyanmay: Kak, saya berada di hadapan PGRM, Cheras. Jejantas selepas Jaya Jusco, Maluri. Saya nampak seorang lelaki terbaring di tanah, accident motorcycle. *still in panic mode*
Operator: Apakah nama encik?
kyanmay: Leong Kuan May. Kak, dia baring kat sana, tak gerak!
Operator: Ok, no telefon encik, 012 XXX XXXX, ke?
kyanmay: Ya, ya…
At least 1 1/2 minutes past, asking protocol questions and repeating my personal information…she proceed to confirm where exactly is the accident scene. Then, she put me on hold…du du, du du…
At the same time, I was trying to stop my friend from stepping out of the car to help the casualty. After all, it was 4am and we are dressed in shorts and tube top. Don’t think it is wise to jeopardize our own safety in trade of his. I am not running a Mother Theresa campaign.
Operator: Hospital tidak jawab. Adakah nombor telefon encik, 012 XXX XXXX? Terima kasih, encik.
Well, luckily within the next 5 minutes. Passerby stop and help carry him up. We left soon after we saw him walking by himself and some other people were looking after him. We did our part as a concerned civilian to alert the authorities.
Is there a lot of people out there who has nothing to do and casually call into the emergency line just for fun? Thus, it results to such strict protocol for them to be sure this is not a prank call before they proceed to make further steps.
I don’t blame the emergency line because I do understand there are a lot of motorcycle accidents happening every hour and it might be just a false alarm but I do think they should refine the system to make it work more efficient.
What if there is a real serious emergency, every second is fatal.
Follow up from my previous post on Green is the new Black. Well, my bottle didn’t work out. Mainly because I often forget opening the cap every 3 days to release the gas. I totally forgot about it after the first month and my mum threw it away before it explodes. =S
Anyhow, I still have a bottle, courtesy of Just Life. And I add it into my household chores especially into the toilet bowl and mopping the floor. It claims that it helps keep the insects out. Well, preferably…no creature with more than 4 legs or less than 2 legs survive within my territory. >=/

The Triple Burger with Everything and Cheese is a stomach full with a trifecta of high calories, tons of fat, and enough sodium to salt a hog for survival through the winter. The Double and Single, the smaller siblings, were almost as bad but we've rolled them under the banner of their artery-clogging older brother.
I am sorry, you’re really nice but you’re doing me no good. I still love you very much. Goodbye, forever.
More facts on Wendy’s best burgers?
I woke up feeling guilty over the nuggets and fries CCM and Sum ordered for themselves and I finished it up last night. *sigh*
