This is my teacher's measurement. Abit on the high and dangerous side. So far she's eating well but abit busy so have not been getting alot of updates from her. Just this morning she mentioned it's so far so good. Good to hear. Will get more updates from her soon.

Mum's first week of TRA. Some updates.

- There was absolutely no starving for her. It was constant feeling full.

- She dropped 1kg.

- Something she discovered. She has the habit of weighing herself at start and end of day. Usually by end of day after all the food intake, her weight would definitely have increased. But with TRA, her weight stayed constant as of start of day. 

- 3 days ago, she felt giddy after drinking the shake. And woke up the next morning feeling giddy too. So she stopped the supplements and seek advice from my consultant who then approached a doctor at the centre. (the good thing about this is, there's a doctor around to consult in case of abnormal responses with individuals). And so Dr Tan gave some advice and hopefully helps her situation. Will give a clearer update on that soon. 


- The 3 days that she stopped the supplements, she gained the kilo back. 


- She is convinced that the supplements are working just that due to her condition, reaction is abit special and tricky.


Will return with more results soon.

Did my first month review with my consultant. Quite disappointed with the results. Shows I've put on weight and increased fats. Pretty negative and discouraging results. I was then advised that this might be due to several factors and one of them being I'm not eating enough. I know that sounds pretty absurd that I put on weight because i'm not eating enough but this is what this whole program is all about - Eat enough to lose weight. It's been only one month out of a 3 mths program so I shan't judge so quickly. There are cases where users only lose weight more significantly in the final moanth with weight gain too in the first month. I shall be patient and continue to believe and have faith.

On a side note, we went on a trip to KL over the weekend and diet got kind of disrupted. Somehow, this program really does train one to eat right and proper because once I eat rubbish I get a strange feeling.

My mum will be starting her journey tomorrow. Below shows her stats. She's 51, looking to shed kilos but most importantly to improve her health. She feels giddy easily and often have shoulder aches. It will be really good if she can benefit from this program as well.

A typical example of my lunch daily. This is more recommended for dinner actually but it's easier for me to have it for lunch. Trimshake (consists of a portion of carbo and a portion of protein), a plate of vege and fruits, makes up my 3333 diet! I think I'm a role model! =P

My JC teacher has also started on this journey with me. We are on a quest to help her slim down to a desirable size. Her problem include knee joint pain so she cannot really exercise. Being in the teaching profession, irregular meal time is her challenge. Also, as described, she doesn't have a lot of determination in the things she do esp when it comes to losing weight. She has tried a couple of methods but gave up eventually. She has started on this program for a week already and is doing so far so good. With lots of self discipline and eating right. The thing about this program is, constant support. This is really important throughout this journey because it is tough to do it all by yourself. According to her after one week, this is not very hard to follow! This is really a positive and consoling comment! We have set up a group chat in whatsapp to monitor her daily. Really hope this works well for her! Jiayou cher!! If she can do it, so can all the rest of you! Be on your way to good health, starting today! 

More than one week has passed. I realised I should just do a weekly update because it's not really realistic to have progress everyday now. Remember the next up challenge I gave TRA on my period? Hence the long hiatus as I wanted to wait for it to end first. So here's the verdict.

Before,

- Very bad headache few days before and afer and exceptionally bad on the day before. So it serves as an alarm for me.
- Bad cramps on the first 3 days
- Ends with bad headache
- Painkiller 3 times a day for the first 2 days
- Dilemma between taking anarex for headache or Panadol menstrual for cramps.

Now,

- With no more headache, i don't know when my period is coming. No more alarm, need to remember dates now.
- Cramp on the first day only, took panadol menstrual once only for entire period.
- No more after period headache.
- Relatively pain free and easier to manage

Still room for improvement on areas such as regularity and cramps. It came a week late and still cramps although reduced to only the first day. So the challenge for the following month will be coming on time and no more cramps!

I am going to put my mum under this program most likely next week. Will also update her progress here.

Some background on her. She's 51. Main focus is to shed kilos with emphasis on tummy. She has occasional heart problem and experiences very bad period. She feels giddy easily. Do hope TRA can help her as well.
