			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>4 months ago at a regular hospital check up, my doctor told me I was way too fat and I need to lose weight. During the 4 months, with various friends&#8217; help, especially Sam Hsieh, I was able to control myself from eating and started working out. Sure, there have been a few days where I couldn&#8217;t control, like the Christmas week and the CNY week, but hey, I did get thinner! And when I visit the doctor today, even he was surprised. I think that was actually the first &#8220;good job&#8221; I have heard from <em>any</em> doctor. Aw, I&#8217;m proud of myself.</p>
<p>Just a little statistics&#8230; I was at 89kg (196 lbs), and now I&#8217;m at 77kg (169lbs). My current BMI is 25 I believe. Still a few pounds away from &#8220;normal weight&#8221;, but hey, at least I&#8217;m not obese anymore!</p>
<p>Just wanted to say thanks to all those who have encouraged me along&#8230; you guys are awesome! Though, I still need help reaching that &#8220;normal weight&#8221; though, so keep controlling my appetite and making me work out.</p>
<p>And in dedication to my achievement, here is a little poem I wrote for English class. (And yes, thanks to Tim Au who helped me on the poem <img src='http://peetahzee.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> )</p>
<blockquote><p>A scene quite opposite to heaven,<br />
Happened on November Eleventh,<br />
The day when I was announced clinically obese<br />
Oh crap, doesn’t that mean I can’t eat?<br />
“You have 4 months to lose 4 kilos”, he said<br />
with a casual expression on his face that just made me mad.</p>
<p>“That can’t be hard for you, can it?<br />
Just control yourself a little bit,<br />
Eat less, work more,<br />
And soon enough, you’ll get the girl you’ve been looking for.”<br />
Okay… that last thought was kind of weird,<br />
but it was true my weight might be what the girls have feared.</p>
<p>I was sure that once they see the new me,<br />
They would jump for joy and shout with glee.<br />
But wait, before all this can happen,<br />
I must work to become like the legendary Kraken.<br />
How I can achieve that I didn’t know,<br />
All I wanted was people saying “whoa”.</p>
<p>Four months of sweat have dripped,<br />
Thousands of calories have slipped.<br />
Now, I am standing ever close to the trophy<br />
On a journey that I never thought was easy.<br />
When I look into her eyes that I now have caught,<br />
I know in my heart, my hard work has been bought.</p></blockquote>
