Weight loss alert (!!)

Beep.beep.I have to lose weight. I’ve been eating a lot, but with minimal amount of body movement. I feel guilty about it. I feel guilty to my body. So I’ve been searching around products that can help me to lessen the fats. I’ve tried tea, but the cramping getting worse and I have a massive headache for a few days. So I found out it is because of the ingredients which contained the Senna leaf and Senna pod.

According to research, Senna leaf has been used for centuries as a “cleansing herb” which acts as laxatives. It is often used to for constipation, cleansing and weight loss.

My problem is my stomach. I cannot bear the cramp and I’m hitting the toilet all night. I promised I never take it again. With limited budget, I try to search for other products. But I couldn’t find one.

I decide to try different method. I take oats as breakfast, and also fruit smoothie. I try it for a few days. I don’t know if I lose weight but it actually keeps me full! And I feel I have more energy. (I don’t know if my energy level caused by my emotional state, maybe I just feel good about it). I still have frequent headaches though. I’m trying to find something that can make me full. So one day, while I was searching for recipes in the internet, I stumbled upon Chia seed. Some people add this in their daily breakfast. Some called it ‘superfood’. Some use it as energy booster. It is actually a food that is rich in protein and omega-3 fatty acids, typically shaped like small ovals. It has multiple colour in brown, gray, black and white.


I went to town and only found flax seed, which is also known for its function as fiber. But I really want to find this Chia seed. So after a few search I finally found it at Natural Health Farm. To my surprise, it only cost me RM 22.90.





Does it work for me? Well, I don’t know, see how it goes in a few weeks or so.
