Coffee and Bones

People of today really takes coffee for the start of their day. Many of us really think that's a good thing and what's wrong about it, since it boosts our energy and keep us awake. Most of the time we never realize in other hand it has already affecting our life instead of giving us a bonus to our life. Coffee -> Bones, Coffee -> Bones ... yeah, I am talking about Coffee that affects our bones everyday if you do take coffee everyday. Still remember my previous post on my ridiculous result of my bone scanning ? I was at the border of osteoporosis, just imagine this at the age of 26. I have to admit that this is the effect of taking too much coffee. I was a heavy coffee-drinker, starting when I was at University.

Anyway, I went to my cousin's pharmacy and had my free bone scanning for another time during last month. Before it was my turn for the scanning, I was so nervous and worried that my reading will still be so negative. I was trying so hard to improve my bone stiffness - I quit drinking coffee and ends up drinking green tea, which is good and I started taking calcium tablet for my calcium supplementary.

...Tik Tok Tik Tok, its my turn
...start scanning...
...and result as below...



Yes, the result shows that I am back to normal! But my cousin told me that it's still not impressive as for the age of 26. You see the graph that separated with clear and dotted area ? Yeah, I was at the bottom of the dotted area last time. Now I am at the clear area~ the Z Score reads -0.0 ! Hurrayyy...

Anyway, I still need to continue to take my calcium until I reach the satisfactory level. The moral of the day is, do not take coffee every morning especially. It will wash away your calcium gradually. Try to replace it with green tea or something else. Don't take red tea(lipton, Tie Kwan Ing and so on) - it has the same effect as the coffee.

Alright, that's all folks.

After months of waiting, at last it reaches the stage of completion. Yeah, I am saying my very own house. Still remember how it was a few months ago ? You can compare them here. I was told that I will be getting my key either this month or next month. Personally think that it won't be this month. There are still so many mini minor fine work yet to be done.

An update in disguise

Harlow ?? *echo*... *pull away some spider webs*....

*Looking at previous post date*.....

Wahh!!!! almost a month I didn't do any updates to my blog. My friend StephenLim is going to kill me @.@!!! hahaa, but seriously guys...are you doing updates because of your friends or because you have something to share with your friends ? But I believe nowadays blogger has reaches an extend where they are paid to blog, don't believe me ?

Ok, reason for not updating my blog is simply because of a few reasons...
1) Busy (...and it will never end - that's why I am here to start blogging again ! :p)
2) "Someone" took my camera and don't want to give back (what a good excuse)
3) Really got nothing to say. For the past few weeks, I was meditating more than doing anything.

But basically the past few weeks was busy with my new house. Asking around for quotations and comparing prices. It's not an easy task though. Need to compare prices together with quality. Simply just can't pick the cheaper one because it's being cheaper, but quality at the same time. After quality, still need to consider whether it's within my budget. Besides budget, need to compare their design as well. Just spending and spending and spending...It's quite challenging when it comes to decision making session. Most of the time I just need to cover both of my eyes with my hands and said "Ok, take this".

I'll be posting up my latest house updates in my coming blog :p blame the person who took my camera for weeks! sigh...btw, return the cable as well!!! Anyway, you can guess who is it...and yeah, as the title of the post says, this is not my updates yet ;) will update you guys what I've up to lately.
