Losing weight

Thursday 25 February 2010 @ 6:00 pm

Hubby is so happy that I recommended him about lose weight cum health product. He is not gain any weighs during the festive season but lose weight even he’s eating much. LOL!!! Yesterday, he screamed out and showed me that he can wear his old trousers finally. He likes the trousers much, but just wear for few times then keep it in the wardrobe for years.

I think he also need the best supplements for building muscle too. Wow, I can’t believe if he can back to his size, 70kg when we started our relationship. He used to be fit and can wear those tight t-shirt. :P I am sure he also hope for a fit body.

So, wish him luck. ok.




Happy Eating

Tuesday 23 February 2010 @ 10:27 am

Kids are happy when come to Chinese New Year as they can receive ang paos besides enjoy eating snacks, cookies, mandarin oranges, soft drinks and etc. Argh, all unhealthy food, but once in a year, just let them as their parents also the same.  :P I am glad that we didn’t gain much weights.

Marcus and his cousin, Zhi Qi. They’re eating apples.

But I make sure my kid drinks lots of water and take more fruits. Don’t know why, the weather is super hot during the festive season.  Marcus takes shower few times every day, and sometimes I just let him naked at home. LOL!!!

We’re still in holiday mood, eating and eating. Tonight, we will attend a dinner with friends. I am sure hubby gains some weights these days. He promised me that he will back to his balance diet soon. I hope he keeps his promise. May be he should invest  in one of the best treadmills if he really have time for it.




Nose bleeding no more

Friday 22 January 2010 @ 6:16 pm

Marcus used to have nose bleeding once in a while since last year. I did bring him to see ENT specialist and the doctor said he’s having sensitive nose, no big problem. So if he rubs his nose, then he is easily get nose bleeding. Argh, but I still very worry about it.

He has no more nose bleeding for months, but mucus with little bit blood when he gets flu. It’s because his nose easily get hurt when he rubs it. Doctor did give some medicines for him, just a course. Anyway, I don’t want him to take too much medications if possible after the course.

I boil fish soup with black beans for him once a week. My parents and friend heard that it will help to heal nose bleeding. No harm to try as it’s just soup which we can have it too. does nutrisystem work besides the fish soup? I should let him try Herbalife, a nutrition product which hubby and I having it every day.




Popping vitamin C as candies

Thursday 30 July 2009 @ 6:38 pm

Marcus always asks for candies from his grandfather these days. Guess what, because my father in law did give him few times and he knows where to find for those candies now. 

Since he likes candies very much, I went to pharmacy the other days to buy a bottle of vitamin C for him to replace those candies. Hopefully he won’t ask for candies from his grandparents anymore.

He was so excited and didn’t want to let go even though the sales person needed it to scan the bar code. Unfortunately, we needed to wait for about 15 minutes to pay the bill as their system was down. The cashier got angry too as this is not the first time. She told me that her boss should look and compare with other POS systems. LOL!!!

Marcus took  5 pastilles once reached home on that day. Gosh, recommended 2 to 3 pastilles per day only. Yesterday when I was changing my clothes in my bedroom, I heard my mother in law shouted at Marcus. I rushed down and got to know that he ate almost 20 pastilles in one short. I was angry and threw the bottle outside. Luckily it’s just vitamin C and not other supplements or else I think he might get nose bleeding. :P




Happy Ending

Monday 11 May 2009 @ 5:12 pm

We are all get well finally. Gosh, it had been a hard time for me last week as I also down with fever and needed to take care of Marcus who is just recovered. My mother in law did help me, but she is also the one who just recovered.  

Marcus is too scare of having medicine throughout the week, who doesn’t? But he needs to complete the antibiotics. I’m glad that he still willing to take the medicine after a sweet is given to him.

Since daddy also got virus attacked, they both took medicine together. It’s a good idea to feed each other medicine as I didn’t need to give Marcus any sweets anymore. Surprisingly, he takes medication obediently now.

Open your mouth…..

Daddy, your turn to open your mouth….. 

Daddy lost so much weight these days. This is what his friends told him. But I can’t see much different. LOL!!! He asked me not to search on diet pill reviews anymore as he promised that he will keep fit. I heard many times and let’s see if he really can keep his promise.   




Not a good day

Friday 1 May 2009 @ 5:25 pm

The weather is getting bad these past weeks. With a hot sun in the afternoon and rain in the evening, make us easy to fall sick. My mother in law is unwell for three days. Visited two doctors and she just sleep the whole day on bed. And my father in law is having cough yesterday.

Marcus is also unwell with slight fever and cough this early morning. We wanted to bring him see doctor, but most clinics are closed. Huh, even the 24 hours clinics also closed for public holiday. Luckily we have cold syrup and paracetomal stand by in fridge.  Hope he gets well soon as we will travel to KL tomorrow.  

Besides that, I’m having slight running nose. Gosh, peeling skin on my feet too. It’s affected on small area. I think it’s time to go for pedicure before it gets worst. I don’t want to spend more on top acne treatment. We didn’t go anywhere today but stay at home for rest. Hopefully all get well as soon as possible.




Saturday fun

Monday 23 February 2009 @ 5:51 pm

It’s another Saturday and I thought to bring Marcus to my parents house, but I was not. We stayed at home while waiting hubby comes back from work.

I don’t need to shout when I bathe for him nowdays. He likes to brush his teeth after I brain storming him about his tooth decay. LOL!!!

                           

 Finally, he brushes his teeth twice a day

Household products from Neways – toothpaste, shampoo, shower gel, laundry detergent

I have changed my family personal care, household products to Neways. Hubby, Marcus and I are using these products for months. Do you really care about the ingredients in the products you are using now? I do really care about it as most products are made from harmful ingredients like Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) which we can see in most shampoo, shower gel and toothpaste.

As the number of cancer cases increased day by day, we should take more precaution. Prevent better than cure, right? I don’t hope to look for a Mesothelioma lawyer later.

Ahhh, I know may be you are boring about it. Let’s change topic. LOL!!! Marcus wants my camera after bathe. He wants to look like mummy. Ok, let him try to snap some photos for me. And this is the best photo he snapped.

This photo taken by Marcus, not bad huh?

Then, he wants me to snap a photo for him.

 I just spend my time with Marcus without doing my things when he does not go to school.




Down with cold

Friday 12 September 2008 @ 4:18 pm

My kid is down with slight cold this morning. Too much virus bug at school and he is the one who easily get attack. Let him have cough syrup before he goes to nap just now. Hopefully he will get well soon as hubby and I will bring him to attend wedding dinners with us this weekend.

I checked through infomation about Chronic Cough from Epocrates. It is defined as cough persisting for more than 8 weeks. I’m so heart break to see him coughing. He can’t sleep well last night, and of course I couldn’t sleep well too.

There are free online clinical solution from Epocrates, do check it out if you want to know more about medication.

Bento kits from PediaSure Complete

Friday 18 July 2008 @ 5:29 pm

Marcus is having PediaSure milk powder few months ago. It comes in yummy chocolate and vanilla flavours. I let him try the vanilla flavours and he likes the taste much. With this milk, his daily nutrition can still be complete even when he doesn’t eat the way I want him to.

I got these bento kits free when I purchse PediaSure. I’m yet to try it until today. I got to know that some of the blogger mummies are into bento fun recently, so I also would like to try too for my kid. LOL!!!  

Egg shapers, cheese/bread cutters

This is the result what I prepared for Marcus as breakfast this morning. Gosh, not attractive, huh? He was shocked to see bread turned into bear shape, cheese turned into fish and bird shape. Another one is an egg, but I can’t mould it out as bear shape as the egg (kampung egg) is too small. I’m glad that he ate what I prepared for him. 

I’m thinking to buy more bento kits and books to learn if I have time. :-P It is fun to prepare the kid’s meal even though it takes time. I want to make sure that he eat healthily every day.




August in Langkawi ?

Wednesday 16 July 2008 @ 4:30 pm

Hubby planned to go for a vacation in Langkawi next month. I stopped him as we will go to Bangkok in September. Even though we like travel, but I don’t hope at that time. Well, it is fun travel with family and friends as we can have the precious moment to get together. Besides visit to those tourist attractions, we can enjoy those delicious local food.

Just like we went to Penang last Sunday, we can’t pay much attention to our kid as hubby and I were busy craving the lovely dish at Gurney Drive hawker stalls. Hubby ate quite a lot that day. It was unusually good appetite for him. I better let him take Phentermine without prescription.

Well, there are many delicious Thai food in Bangkok which my friend planned to take us. I guess we will gain weight for that few days tour in Bangkok. LOL!!!




Special and colorful recipes

Wednesday 25 June 2008 @ 6:10 pm

Sometimes I do cook porridge for Marcus besides taking rice. He doesn’t have much appetize lately though he just get well from diarrhea last week.  I’m thinking some special and colorful recipes for him and hopefully he will get back his appetize like before. I think he is too bored with his current meal I cook for him.

Most of the time he will take carrots, potatoes, salmon, fish, eggs, chicken, meat. He doesn’t like to eat meat and vegetables. That is why he has difficulty in poo even though he drinks fruits juice and eat fruits every day. I found some mummies decorate their kids’ meal with vegetables and meat in cartoon. It’s so nice and colourful, my saliva drip when I see the pictures. LOL!!!

I shall learn from them and change Marcus’s daily recipes in different way.




Get well from diarrhea

Wednesday 18 June 2008 @ 5:11 pm

Finally my boy fully recover from diarrhea. It broke my heart to see him pee every hour last week. Most kids hate and scare to take any medicines. It was a hard time for Marcus when comes to medicine time. Well, talking about medicine, I was shocked when my friend told me that a small clinic charged her over hundred ringgit just for her kids’ medicines. Everything also increase like freak nowadays, I wonder how about those who come from low income family ?

My kid’s paediatrician also inceased his consultation fees. I can’t understand thought they only give services to patients.  But I was surprised when I see him using a PDA medical software from Epocrates. LOL!!! This software is now used by over 500,000 healthcare professionals. I think it is a must for them as it provides clinical information and support tools that enable healthcare professional to have access to medical information easily.

My sick boy

Wednesday 11 June 2008 @ 1:43 pm

Marcus is having fever after back from breakfast yesterday. His nose bleed just make me freak out last weekend, and now I have my heartbreak with his temperature up and down in between 37.5′C and 38.5′C. Besides that, he is having diarrhea too. Oh, poor little boy !!! His body was rather warm. I gave him some paraceptamol syrup which I bought from phamarcy. But it seemed not much help.

Mummy, I’m pain pain ……

Hubby and I brought him to visit his paediatrician even though his fever is back to normal, but still having diarrhea. Back at home and gave him medicine. It’s another hard time as he refuses to take it and cries for “gai gai”. Gosh, brought him out to buy some vegetables.

He is taking his nap now and I have some times to update my post here. He needs to drinks lots of water, juices. The paediatrician even suggested to give him 100 plus. He asked me if my kid has medical insurance, in case he has to admit to hospital if he still diarrhea tomorrow. *touch wood* 




Sensitive nose

Thursday 29 May 2008 @ 5:32 pm

I brought Marcus to see paediatrician as he had his nose bleeding for 2 times weeks ago. I thought he is having fever with high temperature, but I was wrong. He is actually having sensitive nose. He likes to rub his nose and that is why it is easy to cause him nose bleeding especially when he is down with flu.  

Doctor said it’s a small matter among kids, but if he continues nose bleeding every week, then he must go for blood test. The doctor even advised that he is better not to sleep in air-cond room. Gosh, I don’t think he can sleep well without air-cond.

I’m thinking to get a IQAir air purifier to place it in my bedroom. It improves indoor air quality and help relieve allegry and asthma symptoms. Hopefully it will help.




Flabby tummy

Sunday 11 May 2008 @ 1:57 pm

As usual, we went to my parents’ house every Sunday. My mother was shocked when she looks at hubby flabby tummy. I admitted that he is getting fat and flabby these days because he doesn’t have enough exercise. Somemore he is wearing a shirt with horizontal lines today, so it is so obvious too see his flabby tummy.

I wonder if he needs to go for liposuction, but I’m sure he won’t even though it’s free for him. May be I should get him the most famous diet pills if he wants. I hope he will not gain weight again during our trip to Gold Coast next week or else I will force him to take those diet pills. LOL!!!
