My Weight Management from 2007-05-28 to 2017-03-28 (by Calorie Restriction, i.e. Dietary Energy Restriction):

Note: According to the Singapore Health Promotion Board, a healthy BMI would fall between 18.5 to 22.9. A lower index would mean that the individual is at risk of nutrition deficiency diseases and osteoporosis. An index that is higher would mean that the individual is at risk of obesity-related diseases. (Ref: DD-P2016E02)

At 0530 hour of 2010-10-28. Watson Scale = 54.9 kg + 500g = 55.4 kg. Tanita Scale = not used

At 0530 hour of 2010-09-28. Watson Scale = 55.3 kg + 500g = 55.8kg. Tanita Scale = not used

At 0730 hour of 2010-08-28. Watson Scale = 55.3 kg + 500g = 55.8kg. Tanita Scale = not used

At 0530 hour of 2010-07-28. Watson Scale = 55.0 kg + 500g = 55.5kg

But Tanita Scale = not used

At 0530 hour of 2010-06-28. Watson Scale = 55.9 kg + 500g = 56.4 kg

But Tanita Scale = 56.2 kg .

At 0650 hour of 2010-04-28. Watson Scale = 55.2 kg and

Tanita Scale = 55.7 kg which is the same as Watson reading (in kg) + 500g.

At 0630 hour of 2010-05-28. Watson Scale = 54.6 kg + 500g = 55.1 kg

 At 0530 hour of 2010-06-28. Watson Scale = 55.8kg + 500g = 56.3 kg

At 0530 hour of 2010-07-28. Watson Scale = 56.0kg + 500g = 56.5 kg

At 0830 hour of 2010-08-28. Watson Scale = 56.4kg + 500g = 56.9 kg

Note: From 2010-02-01, Watson weighing scale had replaced Camry, which became faulty. In the past reading of Camry was about 500g more than that of Watson. To maintain consistency, so my weight =Watson reading (in kg) + 500g.

On 2010-03-28, at about 7.40 am, my weight by Camry = 55.9 kg + 500g = 56.4 kg. I also used Tanita BC-532 Body Composition Monitor to confirm that my weight was 56.4 kg.

My current BMI is within the healthy range of 18.5 to 22.9.

For me, the range of healthy weight is 50.9786 kg (BMI = 18.5) to 63.10324 kg (BMI = 22.9).

People with BMI values of 23 kg/m2 (or 25 kg/m2 according to some sources) and above have been found to be at risk of developing heart disease and diabetes.

To be healthy, I must have a healthy weight.

Be as lean as possible without being underweight, as recommended by World Cancer Prevention Foundation, United Kingdom.

Consumption of High fiber foods of big quantity may cause constipation

I used to take a bowl of very high fibre multiple grain porridge and a smoothie of about 500g of fruits and vegetables daily for many years.

I stopped doing so about one to two years ago because it caused constipation.

Recently, I started to take high fibre multiple grain porridge again. The last intake a few days ago made me have a serious constipation. It took me about 18 hours of agonizing efforts to push out the very hard stool even after I took 2 tablets of 5mg Unilax Bisacodyl twice.

Based on my personal experience, if one gets constipation (with hard stool stuck at the anus) after taking a lot of high dietary fiber foods, he or she should consider to cut down or even avoid high dietary fiber foods.

My experience may be more useful for people of old age.

In other words, when one is old, consumption of high fibre foods may be a cause of constipation.

If you have any comments or experience to share, please let me know.

Note: I would update my "About me" at a later date.

For Vitamin B9: Take folate instead of folic acid

Folic acid is a synthetic type of B vitamin 9 used in supplements and fortified foods, while folate is the natural form found in foods

If you take a B9-vitamin supplement, make sure it contains natural folate rather than synthetic folic acid.

Folic acid vs Folate

Folic acid is a synthetic type of B vitamin 9 used in supplements and fortified foods, while folate is the natural form found in foods

If you take a B9-vitamin supplement, make sure it contains natural folate rather than synthetic folic acid.

Folic Acid Versus Folate: What's the Difference?
============

Hearing about the benefits of B vitamins for your brain health might make you consider trying a supplement.

However, it's important to know the difference between folic acid and folate before you do. Although often used interchangeably, folic acid is a synthetic type of B9 vitamin used in supplements and fortified foods, while folate (vitamin B9) is the natural form found in foods.

Think: folate comes from foliage (edible leafy plants) and not supplement bottles as a guideline."

Folate Fortification
Folate plays an essential role in cell division and DNA synthesis and is involved in human growth and development. As a result, all people need to maintain an adequate dietary intake of folate during various stages of their lives.
Folic acid, the most common form of folate in supplements, must be converted to its active form to be used by the body.

More Stable, More Bioavailable Folate
Jarrow Formulas Methyl Folate (5-MTHF) overcomes folate barriers by providing the bioactive form of folate, (6S)-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF).

5-MTHF represents an innovative dietary ingredient designed to provide greater stability and higher water solubility compared to other forms of folate.

The Superior Folate
Jarrow Formulas Methyl-Folate takes folate supplementation to the next level by providing improved bioactivity with a reduced need for conversion in the body.*

Jarrow Formulas Methyl Folate is absorbed and utilized efficiently in the body, ensuring you will receive support for your cardiovascular and neurologic health at an affordable price.*

A patient's testimony: Health supplements can heal gum disease

I have never believed that nutrients would have any affect on gums because that is what I have read. 

However, experience has proven otherwise. I have severely receded gums from years of braces, oral surgery and probably hereditary (no gum disease). 

I also had large gaps between my teeth because of the receding gums which looked very unattractive. I was going to get veneers to try and hide them even though my teeth are fine. 

Fortunately I delayed the appointment for 3 months because I became very ill. 

During that period, I took a lot of vitamins & supplements (tumeric, krill, vitamins B, D & some others). I normally eat a fairly healthy diet. 

A few days ago I was shocked when I noticed that the gaps are gone and the gum has grown considerably. 

I am amazed because I thought that once gum is damaged, it cannot grow back again, but my gums have improved dramatically.

Just wait till I show my dentist.

Periodontitis 牙周炎 (Yá zhōu yán)

Periodontitis is a serious gum infection that damages the soft tissues and destroys the bone that supports teeth. If left untreated, it can cause tooth loss or, worse, an increased risk of heart attack or stroke and other serious health problems.

谈让步

谈让步
=====

让步的男人，是最可交的男人。一个不懂得为亲人让步、为朋友让步、为女人让步、为合作伙伴让步的男人，是缺乏胸襟，最无能和最不可交的人。

长不大的男人最重要的标志：就是跟自己人，跟自己所爱的家人，无谓的争长短、论输赢。

那些看起来很爱面子的男人，其实是他们内心充满着不自信、充满着胆怯。那些装成硬汉、从不会认错和让步的男人，他们的内心往往充满着嫉妒和狭隘，阳光很难走进他们的心灵。

何谓成熟男人？对家人、对爱人，很温柔。温柔得如同孩子、如同女人。对外、对困难，毫无惧意，顶天立地，不慌不忙，淡定从容。

动不动就与亲人争执，寸土不让，哪怕口舌上的输赢都要争的男人，可以保证，他们在外面必定没什么作为。

当女人退一步，男人就要退两步。一个懂得爱的人，宁可扮演输家，也不会去打败自己的亲人、爱人和朋友。打败了她们，你能得到什么？又能证明什么？一个优秀的男人，是不会在自己心爱的人面前逞能、较劲、争长短。

爱：就是妥协，就是让步。让步不是退却，也不是从权，而是尊重不同的看法和意见，不要在自己喜欢和爱的人那里去争权威。

一个懂爱、懂让步的男人，是最可交的男人。遇见了，就是你的福气，是一生的好运！

急事，慢慢地说.

小事，幽默地说.

没把握的事，谨慎地说.

没发生的事，不要胡说.

做不到的事，别乱说.

伤害人的事，不能说.

伤心的事，不要见人就说.

脾气不好，不会说话的人！认真读！

　　无论你有多么聪明，多么富有，多有权势，人愤怒的那一个瞬间，智商是零，过一分钟后恢复正常。

记住：千万不要愤怒的时候，做任何决策！

人的优雅关键在于控制自己情绪，用嘴伤害人，是最愚蠢的一种行为。我们的不自由，通常是因为来自内心的不良情绪左右了我们。

记住：一个能控制住不良情绪的人，比一个能拿下一座城的人更强大。

水深则流缓，语迟则人贵。 我们花了两年时间学说话，却要花数十年时间学会闭嘴。

记住：说，是一种能力；不说，是一种智慧。

1、急事，慢慢地说

遇到急事，如果能沉下心思考，然后不急不躁地把事情说清楚，会给听者留下稳重、不冲动的印象， 从而增加他人对你的信任度。

2、小事，幽默地说

尤其是一些善意的提醒，用句玩笑话讲出来，就不会让听者感觉生硬，他们不但会欣然接受你的提 醒，还会增强彼此的亲密感。

3、没把握的事，谨慎地说

对那些自己没有把握的事情，如果你不说，别人会觉得你虚伪;如果你能措辞严谨地说出来，会让人 感到你是个值得信任的人。



4、没发生的事，不要胡说

人们最讨厌无事生非的人，如果你从来不随便臆测或胡说没有的事，会让人觉得你为人成熟、有修 养，是个做事认真、有责任感的人。

5、做不到的事，别乱说

俗话说“没有金刚钻，别揽瓷器活”。不轻易承诺自己做不到的事，会让听者觉得你是一个“言必信， 行必果”的人，愿意相信你。

6、伤害人的事，不能说

不轻易用言语伤害别人，尤其在较为亲近的人之间，不说伤害人的话。这会让他们觉得你是个善良的 人，有助于维系和增进感情。



7、伤心的事，不要见人就说

人在伤心时，都有倾诉的欲望，但如果见人就说，很容易使听者心理压力过大，对你产生怀疑和疏离。同时，你还会给人留下不为他人着想，想把痛苦转嫁给他人的印象。

8、别人的事，小心地说

人与人之间都需要安全距离，不轻易评论和传播别人的事，会给人交往的安全感。

9、自己的事，听别人怎么说

自己的事情要多听听局外人的看法，一则可以给人以谦虚的印象;二则会让人觉得你是个明事理的人。

10、尊长的事，多听少说

年长的人往往不喜欢年轻人对自己的事发表太多的评论，如果年轻人说得过多，他们就觉得你不是一 个尊敬长辈、谦虚好学的人。

11、夫妻的事，商量着说

夫妻之间，最怕的就是遇到事情相互指责，而相互商量会产生“共情”的效果，能增强夫妻感情。

12、孩子们的事，开导着说

尤其是青春期的孩子，非常叛逆，采用温和又坚定的态度进行开导，可以既让孩子对你有好感，愿意 和你成为朋友，又能起到说服的作用。

让步的男人，是最可交的男人。一个不懂得为亲人让步、为朋友让步、为女人让步、为合作伙伴让步的男人，是缺乏胸襟，最无能和最不可交的人。

长不大的男人最重要的标志：就是跟自己人，跟自己所爱的家人，无谓的争长短、论输赢。
