Hari ke 4 ambil Formula 3. Kembali ke tasik pada awal pagi untuk jogging demi menjaga kesiahtan diri. Sebelum jog, sempat breakfast Formula 1+ Formula 3 separuh hidangan. Separuh lagi akan di minum selepas jogging. Tak pernah lagi minum sekali gus, kerana Formula 3 memang mengenyangkan. Hari ni warm up berjalan kaki untuk 200 meter pertama, kemudian mula berlari  untuk 1km seterusnya dan tanpa berhenti! Pencapaian yang sangat mengembirakan, berbanding sebelum ini hanya ada tenaga untuk berjalan kaki sahaja. Thank you Allah, thank you Herbalife. Target selepas ini berlari satu pusingan tanpa berhenti, iaitu sejauh kira-kira 1.4km. Insyallah misti boleh buat jika istiqamah! Dalam perjalanan pulang, mendapat panggilan telefon dari seorang teman. Beliau berada di sekitar kawasan, dan mengajak breakfast bersama. Dengan pakaian sukan yang sama, kami berjumpa di Restoran mamak berhampiran. Walaupun tidak rasa macam nak makan, saya tetap order menu kegemaran iaitu teh tarik dan roti canai. Ironi, saya hanya mampu menghabiskan separuh sahaja. Perut tidak rasa macam nak makan, walau pun sudah berlari sejauh 1km dan masih berhutang separuh lagi hidangan Formula 1+ Formula 3. Kami berborak panjang, bercerita banyak perkara. Penuh dengan cita-cita dan resolusi hidup yang penuh bersemangat. Lebih 2 jam, kami pun beredar. Sampai di rumah sudah lewat tengahari, dan masih dengan pakaian sukan yang sama. Rasa perut sedikit upset, mungkin kerana si teh tarik.

I get more serious now, and start taking the Formula 3. 2 scoops of Formula 1 + 1 scoop of Formula 3 into 400ml of soy drink (marigold, drinho any "cap" will do)  make a real feel-full breakfast meal. Of course can use the plain water as well, but an effort to replace a meal should be well respected and done interestingly. Just buy the ready soy drink kat kedai, and trust you will like it. If last time, I finished the 400ml of Formula 1 in one sit, this time I have to finish it in stages like every half an hour or so. Just put the shaker next to my working seating, and sip until finish. 

I have quite sometime waiting for Tuesday 10.30 8TV lepak depan tv time to watch some good series, like last time the cerita emak-emak - Desperate Housewife which I never miss. But last tuesday, I thought I watched something interesting and this week only I get to know the title is The Carrie's Diary ( turned 180 degrees from watching the emak-emak to watching the teenagers series). Similar to DHW, there is a narrator and the-tell of good lessons, which I find interesting and inviting. Qoute from tonight's series: 1. Fake it till you make it. 2. Afterall, dreams is all about telling lies.

Arrived at the park early morning. Warmed-up walking for the first 200m, and followed with running. From one bridge to another, and surprised I can run further. I walked another round just to count the total of lamp posts I just now, passed by while running. I calculated the number of walking steps from one lamp post to another, then did some math. The distance was more than 300m, and what a wow! Last time I just walked, now I can run.

2 hari tak makan Herbalife, sbb dah habis stok - gara-gara terhegeh-hegeh buat keputusan untuk menjadi ahli (dan dapat membeli dengan harga lebih murah). Pada sebelah malam, saya menghadiri HOM (Herbalife Opportunity Meeting) pertama di klang. Sebelum masuk, ada jemputan untuk menulis nama kerana ada cabutan bertuah untuk para jemputan, iaitu hadirin macam saya. Acara seterusnya, testimonial kesihatan, testimonial wang, testimoni kesihatan diri sendiri dan teman, dan macam-macam yang HOM perlu ada. Suka berada dalam kumpulan orang-orang yang bersemangat, dan positif juga - baik untuk kesihatan minda. Dihujung acara, nama saya di panggil kerana telah menjadi si bertuah - mendapat cabutan bertuah itu. Set coaster untuk minuman Herbalife, pesan Puan Pemberi Hadiah, dan bukan untuk lapik teh tarik atau seumpama :)  

Terjaga awal pagi, sekitar jam 4 pagi. Temperature badan semakin naik, dan hidung mula berair. Demam yang tergendala semalam, akhirnya datang. Aspirin dah habis, Formula 1 Herbalife pun dah habis - 2 scoop terakhir telah pun dihabiskan semalam. Sedang mencari alasan yg betul untuk menjadi ahli.

Jam 9 pagi, sampai di klinik dan doktor mengambil bacaan. Suhu badan sedikit tinggi, sekitar 38 darjah celcius. Bacaan tekanan darah 120/ 75 dan nadi 71/min. 120/ 75 - satu bacaan tekanan darah yang agak mengejutkan. Kerana selama ini, bacaan atas tekanan darah yang paling tinggi hanya sekitar 105, paling selalu tak sampai 100 pun. Bacaan bawah pula sekitar 60. (ada mesin pengukur tekanan darah portable di kampung dan rajin memantau sendiri). Pernah sekali "blackout" di shopping kompleks kerana lewat makan tengahari, dan tidak menjaga kesihatan diri. Sindrom tekanan darah rendah yang telah saya alami bertahun-tahun dan tiada penyelesaian.

Berselang 2 hari, coach  menghubungi. Saya ceritakan tentang kisah demam. Kata beliau, mungkin proses pembuangan toksid sedang berlaku, dan menyebabkan demam. Bergantung kepada individu, simptom juga berlainan. Yang penting teruskan usaha untuk menjadi lebih sihat!  Alhamdulillah dengan hanya mengamal kan Formula 1 Herbalife, tekanan darah saya telah berjumpa keajaiban. Keesokan hari, saya telah membuat keputusan untuk menjadi ahli - kerana testimoni sendiri.

The throat was burning since yesterday - a signal to anytime catch flu. The text and slides were ready, except me. Woke up early morning and the body temperature has slightly increased, but without nose running. Stayed on bed for a while, deciding whether to attend the class or call it another ponteng.Searched the aspirin, but no avail. Took the Formula 1 with soy milk for breakfast, the last scoop of the first can. Shortly a neibour phoned and called to have important discussion.

Some good hours were gone, then rushed to the class and arrived just on time. I delivered my speech with title - Calories but without embedding interesting image, like the fries or the burger. Another friend was presenting a topik with title  "kebesaran Tuhan", with colorful slides with sceneries of the hills and mountains, the beaches and skies to visualize the "nikmat dari Tuhan'. My other friend and me were giggling at the back and whispering to each other that he also forgot to put the image of a burger on his slides. (we thought, eating burger is also nikmat dari Tuhan). 

The class adjoured shortly and I rushed home to watch the Perfect Match. Only when the show ended I recalled that this morning I was close to catching flu, stay on bed, ponteng and demam. The extra ordinary of the Herbalife, I think.   

Just finished writing 2 documents with more than 30 pages each. It took me the whole week last week including the Chinese New Year holidays to finish the first one, and surprisingly finished the other in just one day (the whole morning till late afternoon, and without moving or talking, of course) What a commitment and a point of achievement! To celebrate, I had a premium fast food set few hours just now, and perfectly just before I sleep. Sleeping with "lighter shoulder" tonight. Thank you Allah.

My first STS at the SACC in Shah Alam. Finally my coach made me to attend (instead of staying home, either writing my document or tidur). The early session, only for supervisors and the similar, hasnt finished and made everybody else, including me waited outside. Soon some big crowds came from no where and made a huge volume, before the door was opened and all of us were welcomed. Presentation, sharing, testimonials were among the itenenaries, and I helped my self to absorb as much understanding as I can. The special guest was Bapak Hilman J, the International Presidents Team Members and coming all the way from Indonesia. He had his own business before joined Herbalife, and was once a skeptic like everybody else. After consuming the health products and benefiting the result, then his journey in Herbalife starts. Saya bila lagi? (at this time masih belum jadi ahli)

Everybody was still on CNY leave, except the bos and me. The internet and the phone lines were down since morning, and I have another silent day to just sit, write and think. More drawing today for Mr Google was not around to help me with the writing. I need to tell the whole story how to turn a conservative office room into a 5 star hi-tech working place that no employee will want leave. Skipped lunch and only had the Formula 1.

The suppose to be ready-to-print document was in great mess. Mark-ups were everywhere, either to be accepted or what. A lot of editing here and there, before the actual printing can commence. Not to mention, the spelling. The appendixes were missing too. Took me some good hours confirming the updated version. The printer was some-what broken too - each time trying to print out, it went haywire. I noticed I dispensed more than half of the A4 rim unnecessarily. Calls were coming from time to time, reminding me to submit before 3pm. It was 1.30pm when I left the office, heading to another office for binding and final touch. It finally arrived and handed to them 30 minutes late. Scold me, I dont mind, I said. Finally, back to the office about 4pm - feeling tired and hungry. Lucky I had the Formula 1 in the morning. I wish I have extra for lunch.   

I was awakened early this morning, despite sleep late last night. I have been writing all the way from late afternoon yesterday till mid night, and surprised to rise this early today without having to wait for the alarm clock to  strike. 

I heard similar testimonials came as fast as the next day after taking the Herbalife, unfortunately not in my case. Different body, different systems and different reactions. I continue absorbed writing pressure, and and being productive. Some 20 pages were underway. 

Stopped for a short break watching the US Special Perfect Match. Today, the ladies contestant keep the lights on like never before- even to the not-so-good-looking ones. Maybe they look forward to migrate outside China, to follow their new mate - intersting feedback of human behavior. Later in the afternoon visited the park. Made my first run and my first 100m without stop, then continued walking for 3 rounds. Glad I gained more energy lately.

Met my coach for first time, after taking the Formula 1 Herbalife, having the extra crust at the Pizza Hut yesterday and drive-in the A&W on Friday. Plus more than a week not walking at the park. Perhaps because weight is not an issue or objective of taking the  Herbalife, so I have all reasons to eat as much as I want when there is no rush. (remember I initially take Herbalife for meal replacement when having to skip meals)

After taking the "weight" and the result: body fat increased, % body water range decreased (not good).

I learn some good lessons today: 1. Poor water level is due to excess body fats and this is bad 2. Rich body fats is due to the poor way of thinking that taking good meals (with rich nutrition) is a ticket to fast food myself. 3. Objective to be reviewed someday.

Chinese new year break. Planned to balik kampung, but there is not progress on the working paper, except 2 pages of project introduction, objectives and a significantly large illustration photo. So I decided these 4 days would be the best time to silently sit, think and seriously write. It started only late in the afternoon, after meeting an a single-mother-to-be friend at a nearby pizza hut. She did most of the talking; I finished most of the eating. Feeling full offered me some good peace of mind.

Arrived home late again, after work but no more fattening burger for dinner. Bought a  Herbalife Formula 1 yesterday at retail price. 2 scoops of the tropical fruit flavor then mixed with 400ml soy drink into a shaker. Shake, drink and off to sleep.
