Reset Day 4 - 03 May 06

8 am Started with the Dutch Chocolate,essentials and 2 x proflavanols.


12.20 pm Happy to go out for a quick shop for joel belated birthday gift, but upon returning I discovered to my horror - I forgot to bring along the Vanilla flavor shake but I did remember to bring my shake bottle :( , but lucky me, I had pack my fruits and vegetable - 1 apple, 2 stick of celery, a few baby tomatoes which was very tasty and some carrots. Since I have no shake, I ate most of the fruits and vegetables. With the little walk to do the shopping and also making a trip to the car park to renew the coupons I had much of walking exercise.

4 pm Have a ‘coffee’ session with a partner - actually I had mineral water but the strange thing is that I don’t feel hungry although I was on a pure vegetable and fruit lunch diet :)

7.30 pm Had a strawberry shake with lot of fruits - honey dew, tomatoes, papaya and bananas. After dinner I went to weight in expecting to gain a bit of weight but was surprise to discover that I have lose more weight - my weight now at 64Kg , I have lost 7 Kg since I went with the Reset program. Although I had a mix of vegetables and fruits and quite some amount I still lost much weight. Energy level has been down slight but I don’t feel giddy. Although I am a bit worried whether my weight drop is too much. Tomorrow is the last day of the 5 day Reset phase 1. I went to check my BMI online here - Health Promotion Board - BMI Calculator, my original BMI before the program was (71 kg/1.78M) = 22.4 and now my BMI today (64 kg/1.78M) = 20.2. Please see the chart (HPB website) below for reference :

BMI (kg/m2) (for adults)
Risk of Heart Disease and Diabetes

27.5 and above - High Risk
23.0 – 27.4 - Moderate Risk
18.5 – 22.9 - Low Risk (healthy range)

Less than 18.5 - Risk of nutritional deficiency diseases and osteoporosis

Reset Day 3 - 02 May 2006

7.30 am Start with morning Wild Strawberry, realized that the sequence of taking the different flavor affects the mood of the program, vanilla is not very tasty, so when I take it yesterday evening it affected my mood. So I decide to take the vanilla during lunch.
8 am Weight again and my weight has gone down to 69 Kg although I have tried many ways to shed the 1-2 kgs in recent years I was not successful.
12 pm Vanilla Shake with water melon and honey dew with 2 baby carrots and 2 strawberry.

6 pm Dutch Chocolate with 2 strawberry and some pears.

A Singaporean Couple’s Dream to Freedom

October 2003

Story of our life

Jonathan and I are what you would consider a young typical Singaporean couple. We graduated from a University with a degree, found a good job and worked hard to get our own executive apartment and a car. We also enjoyed a few years of blissful married life before planning for a kid. Things started to change in our family when our daughter Sherise was born and Jonathan got promoted to senior position. We have always wanted to participate more in Sherise’s development and growth, witnessing every milestones of her life be it her first word or first step. However, we just couldn’t do that because of our work commitment. Being a senior IT Consultant, Jonathan had to work long hours sometimes even on weekends. His work also required him to travel out of town very frequently. The only chance he got to see our daughter awaked was just a brief 30 minutes early in the morning before we set off to work. I struggled to take care of my daughter on my own after work whenever he had to work late. Sometimes, it made me wonder whether my daughter actually has a dad and I still have a husband for he was not always there when the family needed him.

Jonathan and I actually sat down one day to have a heart to heart discussion. We contemplated whether he should look for a lesser-paid job to have more time for the family or I should stop work and fully devote my attention to my daughter. We were not able to come to a conclusive decision because there were too much bills (the car and housing installments) to pay and depending on a single source of income was just of the question.

Around the same time, I also developed a back injury, which caused problem to my desk-bound job. I could not sit long on my desk due to excruciating pain on my thigh. I spent a substantial amount of medical fees in the diagnostic and treatment processes, which were not claimable through insurance policy or medishield fund. These fees plus monthly maintenance of house and car, and other family expenses became a perpetual struggle to keep up. We were living from paycheck to paycheck. We knew that something was not quite right for we were not happy. However, we just don’t know what to do about it.

It so happened that a classmate of Jonathan approached us one day to have a stake at a free home-based enterprise. He said that this opportunity will lead us to where we want: True Financial & Time Freedom. We were pretty skeptical about it? How can one have time freedom and yet be financially free? He directed us to take up a copy of Robert Kiyosaki’s “Rich Dad, Poor Dad”. After reading the book, we found the answer to the root of our unhappiness. We were both earning a source of income that is active in nature all this while. This sort of income stopped when we stopped working. That was the dilemma for us. Much as we want to spend more time with our daughter, we just can’t be personally involved in her daily care. We send her to my Mum’s place every morning before leaving reluctantly to get to office in order to get a paycheck at the end of the month. True financial freedom means being able to develop a stream of income that is passive in nature, which means money continues to flow even if we are not working. After getting enlightenment from that book, we were determined to embark on our search for this stream of passive income. .

We did our due diligence evaluating this classmate’s offer and all the others that were available in the market. We finally took up the offer for we found that it was a fantastic way to earn our passive income. We started a business with a company endorsed by Robert Allen, a multimillion dollars financial guru.

Opportunity
We would like to help people seeking to live life on their terms, or seeking time freedom, financial freedom so that they can join us in this great journey. This life path is for Jonathan and I. Whether it is for you or not, we hope the following information will allow you to evaluate: http://www.whyworkathome.org/truewealth4u/

May you find true health and freedom in your life!
Serene & Jonathan
