Breakfast Foods – Michael Yeung

"GNC is way too expensive in Singapore! This is my "poor man's" pre and post workout shake. Delicious..." - Michael Yeung

His shake consists of:

450 ml of skimmed milk (can be substituted with soy milk or water)
2 tablespoons of reduced fat peanut butter
1 teaspoon of instant coffee beans

3 tablespoons of lowfat or no fat yogurt (vanilla or plain yogurt usually goes best because with the peanut butter banana and coffee the taste is already quite strong. I wouldn't recommend going with a fruity flavored yogurt.)
1 banana
a handful of granola (the more you grab, the thicker the shake will be.)
4-6 ice cubes
Makes about 18-20ozs,
blend away!

Thanks for sharing, Mikey!

My lack of update on health and beauty articles is due to some personal issues that I am trying to get through at the moment. Please bear with me.

Meanwhile, remember; Live healthy, Look good ;)

I got up this morning to this:

That's the one on my upper arm...

major bruises

It hurts a little :(

massive bruise from surfing

This is how my left leg looks like now. I didn't let it fully recover before going back again and soooooo, it waaaaas my bad.

I'm putting ice on it right now. These are just some of the uglier and more painful bruises, my right leg is all bruised up too but it doesn't look as bad as this one.

It was worth the pain! When you go to WaveHouse and see this....

The Launch of FRESH SPRING BREAK at Wave House Sentosa

Wait... did somebody say SPRING BREAK?!

Come Saturday, 28th November, chic beach party revelers will be in for a treat as local party promotion label VIBE PARTIES, brings in a wave of international acts to “FRESH” at Wave House Sentosa.


The sultry Malaysian singer-song writer CHE’NELLE, who took the US Billboard by storm with her hit single ‘I fell in love with a DJ’, and the sensual Japanese all-girl dance group CyberJapan, will be part of the quality line-up. along with Sydney-based turntabalist DJ Moto, MC Joe275, The Butter Factory’s resident, DJ Andrew T, and many more.

With a massive human capacity of 3000, the weekly “FRESH” at Wave House Sentosa are set to revolutionise the beach party culture in Singapore by introducing a “Spring Break” style of partying.


Discard rigid etiquette to the sea winds, and go wild with Beer Bong Races, where beer buffs gulp limitless beer down, through a free-flowing funnel – usually pressured with the taunting chants of on-lookers.


Turn up the heat with the Body Shots - probably the closest your lips can get to the tanlines of those beautiful beach bodies.


Those competitive spirits seeking something ‘sporty’ while buzzing on an alcohol ‘high’ can give Beer Pong a go. Beer Pong makes Ping Pong look like child’s play as players try land a ping pong ball into their opponents cup.

Peep this video I found on YouTube. Sick!

I am officially a WaveHo. After trying out the FlowBarrel at Wavehouse last night for 2 hours, I realized that surfing is definitely a sport that I want to get into. Didn't have a chance to take any photos or videos because I left my camera at home but I'll make sure I do the next time. Might need to invest on a waterproof/underwater camera soon! I just want to go to Bali or Hawaii and do the real surfing right now! I know it's almost completely different but I'm sure it's the same kinda rush...

Anyway, look at what I woke up to:

Some major bruising from all the wipeouts on the Barrel. No pain, no gain!

I have some bruises on my back and butt too! I hate bruises and scars but funny thing is, I'd do it again.

Had a great weekend with the beautiful sun. Another gloomy Monday today...

Eating Fruits Can Make You Bloat!


Fruits & Vegetables

Fruits SHOULD be eaten on an EMPTY stomach!

Not after you've had your meal. Not as dessert.

Eating ‘dessert’ in the form of fruits has become a habit in many cultures. Not many people realize, however, that eating fruits after meals cause the food to ferment, which in turn causes bloating, or gas. If you eat two slices of bread, for example, followed by a slice of fruit, it will be difficult for the fruit to go straight through the stomach and into the intestines. The moment the fruit comes into contact with the food in the stomach and digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil. The fruit mixes with other foods and putrefy them, producing gas. Hence you bloat.

All fruits become alkaline in our body, according to Dr. Herbert Shelton who did research on this matter. If you have mastered the correct way of eating fruits, you have the Secret of beauty, longevity, health, energy, happiness and normal weight.

When you need to drink fruit juice - drink only fresh fruit juice, NOT from the cans. Don't even drink juice that has been heated up. Don't eat cooked fruits because you don't get the nutrients at all. You only get to taste. Cooking destroys all the vitamins. Forget about that fried banana fritter or that fruit tart. Who're you trying to kid?!

Did you know that kiwis are better than oranges?


kiwis are better than oranges

Tiny but MIGHTY! Kiwis are a good source of potassium, magnesium, vitamin E & fiber. Its vitamin C content is T W I C E that of an orange!

However, they also do cost a little more. What's your favorite fruit? Mine are plums, cherries and honeydew :)

Quick Tip! The darker and richer the color of the fruit, the more nutrients it contains.

Current Obsession: Wavehouse

My friends and I went to Sentosa on Sunday to play some American football and check out the new hot spot in Sentosa called Wavehouse. I have to tell you, after trying out the FlowRider, I was so addicted, I went back again just yesterday. This time, I wanted to try out the FlowBarell. I was super stoked and all but when I met some friends there who have actually tried it out and got hurt REAL bad, I was as nervous as a 40 year old virgin.

By real bad I mean they got some major bruises on their limbs. Which is expected, isn't it? There's always a risk to injury in every sport. Just remember one most important rule: Don't be a hero. Take what you handle.

I was game to take on what I had to handle on the Barrel. If I really sucked, I guess could always go back to the FlowRider (which I really didn't want to)...

Unfortunately, the weather wasn't too kind and it rained from 3-6pm. (Maybe it was a sign I wasn't ready?)

Luckily I could save my ticket for another day... and I'm planning to go back there this weekend.

OF course, I couldn't let my day go to waste because of bad weather - I tried out the Luge (at Sentosa) for the second time and it's something I'd like to call a cheap thrill. Sure, it was fun but not THAT exciting. Not as exciting as playing Tap Tap Revenge 3 on my iPhone.

Here are some photos from last Sunday at Wavehouse:

Gotta know how to leaaaaaan, that's the trick.

So awesome.

When you step into Wavehouse, you'll feel this instantaneous energy that will definitely put you in the right mood. Personally I like the place because the food is magnificent, the place is clean, you can shop for bikinis at Billabong, hang out for some drinks, tan, take a dip in the pool,  AND most ultimately, they play kick-ass music. Just my kinda thing.

Quotes: All That Matters Is To Eat Healthy And…

believe

You're beautiful. Don't look at those stupid magazines with stick-like models. Eat healthy and exercise. Be you. Don't let anyone tell you you're not good enough. Love your family with all your heart . Follow your instincts, they're usually right. You are gorgeous, whether you're a size 2 or 14. It doesn't matter what you look like on the outside, as long as you're a good person; as long as you respect others. You are your own person, don't let yourself compare yourself to anyone. You don't need that. Believe in yourself, you're all you've got.

I know it's been told hundreds of times before, but it's true.

...because we all need words of motivation sometimes.
