MKS, your problem easily settled with \"treats\" leh. :evil: ask your DD to plan what needed to cover for the weeks till Dec, also ask her to incorporate what she wants to do for relaxation. If she plan big what she needed to do for study, she will have to plan big for her \"play\" as well. She needs to take ownership. Maybe it is one of the motivation. Every week, there will be a mini diagnostic test to see whether what she had revised is already deep set in her thoughts lor. You try lah.


For my side, I nagged at them to read more Chinese Story books and we watch 1 Chinese movie in alternate days. DS1 is giving tuition to some P5 coming to P6 kids in Maths. DS2 kaypoh comes along to learn lor. They did Maths and then play catching with the boys, soccer and fly kites. Yeah they are \"busy\" in their own ways.

thank you lc for yr suggestions!

your ds1 giving tuition after psle or before psle? He is such a good boy. After I read yr this post, I told dd, let her admire la she is so quick to say I can also give tuition but only to meimei

Psst. If you want to loose weight, the most important thing is to watch what you eat. I was walking from 10K - 15k steps a day for 2 months without any decrease in weight. Then i stayed in the hospital for 2 weeks and I lost 6 kg. So its what you eat (or don't eat). Right now at 69kg which is still rather high...

Mind over matter.

Was feeling hunger pangs last night. Then somehow crave for smooth porridge. DH said will drive out get some for supper. I said no lah since we’re all comfy getting ready for bedtime. Just turn off the light & the mind just adjusted to it till morning. Maybe got my porridge fill in my dreams. Mind over matter.

Psst. If we don’t exercise, very soon we will see flabby / wobbly arms and legs!

If you ask me to run 2.4km, I think I will die, but I am definitely ok to walk say, 5000 steps a day, say, when shopping at Taka/BHG etc.

Hospitalize don’t say lah, my mum was hospitalized for a week after her hip/leg operation, not just lose weight, I found that she suddenly like aged a lot during and after the hospital stay. :yikes:

10,000 steps.

I tried once with DH. Walked about 10,000 steps from Novena to Botanical Garden station (wanted to walk to NYGH but I gave up half way and turned back). I don’t think I want to do it ever again. It is too “traumatic” for me. I can do at most 3,000 steps non-stop a day (about 30mins walk).

Flabby, wobbly & not forgetting cellulite buildups that cannot be exercised out except for lipo!
