Spent a whole morning at TTSH. Started with Zaki the therapist who spent the time teaching me 4 stretching and strengthening exercises. Saw the doc for the analysis and the verdict was my right knee was ok wirh mild wear-and-tear on the outer cap. my inner thigh is too weak thus causing 'abrasion' to the outer knee cap upon movement esp ( Read more... )

AFTER THOUGHT:

One great lesson learnt through this trip is the virtue of adaptability.

Me being the go-getter RARA kind once I made up my mind...I'd just do it. 'COS I ain't a rash person! FOR I would have done my 'homework/research/groundwork' before i ever come to any conclusion! ....so I have confidence in my decision. I do my homework before I ( Read more... )

It's long known that high consumption of instant noodles can be harmful to health. (Well, it's the same with any other thing, actually. Moderate is still the best way!)

Gene knows I'm busy most of the time and recommended this cool low-fat alternative when hunger pangs hit!

Round Island Night Cycling

For the 1st time in my life, I attempted road cycling against my fear for my broken knees.

When I told my trainer, gene about it, he advised on diet, rest and precaution from the day before to the actual riding. We both feared for my knees which were 'a pain' so many times during training.

Unfortunately, none of which ( Read more... )

If only we take time to see with our heart.

If only we stop and feel with our heart.

There are so many things that can just pass us by without meaning in our lives. There are so many things that can just pass us by and tug a string in our hearts.
