Here’s the thing there is no fast way to lose weight. I can testify to that. i’ve been yo-yoing with my weight and size for many years. But it till when i made the mental decision to want to be fit and healthy, that it’s slowly changing my life.. for the better!

Fitness First hastens the progress with the launch of its exclusive weight loss program, Lose It! That will help individuals lose up to 10 lbs in 4 weeks. Still find it incredulous, then check out this video for a better explanation.


Lose It! is a fitness plan that aims to help different individuals attain their short-term weight loss goals in a matter of weeks. Whatever the motivation is, Lose It! can help participants look good, stay healthy, be more energized, or get back to that desired dress size through the different exercise routines.

“We understand that time is now a luxury with people living multiple lives balancing their careers, families and friends and because of this, health and fitness have taken the back seat. With the introduction of Fitness First’s Lose It!, we will be able to provide people with a quick and effective work-out solution for individuals on the go”, said Mark Ellis, Fitness First Country Manager.

Lose It! was developed by The Biggest Loser Asia Trainer for two seasons and Fitness First’s Regional Fitness Manager, Dave Nuku and supported by Fitness First Regional Group Training Exercise Manager, Jacqueline Wong. The program was built to work for all body types. It’s designed to provide access to a defined period with a clear objective and an end result in mind. Lose It! is a flexible and personal exercise plan based on the individual’s weight loss goal versus the number of times he/she can commit to going to the gym.

The best part about this program is that it is determined and tailored fitted to one’s personal weight desire and needs, for instance, losing as much as 10 lbs in 4 weeks. “We developed the Lose It! Program for people who are currently not enrolled in a gym but are looking for a fast and effective way of losing weight,” said Dave Nuku, “ Aside from access to the gym, the program offers a Lose It! Body guide, body journal, three one hour one to one personal training sessions and team work out sessions. The team work out is a full hour of complete training that helps to improve cardiovascular, strength and flexibility of a person. It’s an exercise class done in groups which is fun and challenging. The exercises include games, plyometrics and circuit training.”

So if you want to win this Fitness First Package, then make a workout date with me on the RedFM Quick Workout by tuning in to RedFM 104.9 in Kuala Lumpur at the 12pm hour. Save this number into your phone 0377281049 and call me up then! Hope to talk to you soon!

Under the sea..under sea.. down where it’s wetter, down where it’s better.. take it from meeee

LOL that was the first song that came to my head when i was told RedFM Late Night Love Songs was giving away this wonderful pass to the Champagne and Oyster Soiree at 7atenine! Ooooh bliss to be entertained by a lovely band, served with a delicious french bubbly and freshly shucked oysters.

So what was the event all about? This “Champagne & Oyster Soiree” happens to the first of its kind in Kuala Lumpur .The Champagne and Oyster Soiree was in conjunctions with World Oyster Day. A night where you are permitted to be flamboyant and possible act like a Posh Spice. :P

Here’s a bit of info on the Oyster Festival

The Oyster Festival originated as a hometown parade honouring Theodore Roosevelt before evolving into the largest outdoor festival on Long Island, under the auspices of the Oyster Bay Rotary. Every year, more than 200,000 visitors flock to an Indian-summer weekend on the waterfront in downtown Oyster Bay – drawn by live entertainment, Tall Ships, top-notch artisans, pirate shows, midway rides, and the iconic oyster eating and shucking contest. And of course…the Food Court, where volunteer chefs and culinary pros work side by side, cooking and serving dozens of unique oyster, clam and other seafood concoctions along with traditional festival fare. Nothing is duplicated and everything is all for a good cause –funding many local non-profit organisations.

Kuala Lumpur, June 22 – Oysters are popularly celebrated in festivals in various manifestations around the world. A day dedicated to celebrate and commemorate oysters is all the rage in European continents. Now it is Kuala Lumpur’s turn to enjoy a full-fledged oyster tribute… thanks to 7atenine!

7atenine’s first oyster gala christened “A Champagne and Oyster Soiree” held tonight was celebrated in conjunction with the World Oyster Day. This marvelous mollusk got a larger than life treatment with a 2 hour free flow Nicolas Feuillate champagne and fresh Irish oyster feast, a pearl fashion show, live jazz performance, some oyster facts and trivia challenge.

All guests received an exclusively-crafted mother of pearl door gift and one lucky person walked away with a RM6,000 pearl necklace in a lucky draw conducted at the end of the event – compliments from Edward Kong South Sea Pearls.

International seafood importer, Tim Boucat of Southern Rock Seafood, was on hand to enlighten all on interesting oyster insights which included farming and shucking of oysters. – 7atenine

Check out what went on throughout the night ^_^

The oh so loving panel, that gave me much headache the first time i entered the studio..The phone that answered all the wonderful people who tuned in and of cour the big GREEN button!

 

The other side of the panel…The big bright red light that shows we are on air! MIC!!!

yes whenever we are in the studio / conty and there are people in the room, we are suppose to shout MIC!! to warn others hehe.

The panel facing the white board, where we have lil notes.

Ahh the window looking out to the rest of the world..

This shall be the last time i “teet” into the studio area in the OLD OFFICE!

 

Ohhh i remember you.. you stupid lift! You are lift number 6!!! the one that scared the crap out of me the one time i wanted to go down and it ended up on the 12th floor. I was alone in the lift, when it stopped at 12th floor, the doors opened and it was pitch black! the thought in my head was

“oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh”

And then..

A security guard stepped out..

phew..

but..

was he real??? Hmmmmm >.<

 

The OLD OFFICE RedFM door before the reception!

Not that it really means anything, but this is the umm.. smelly… girls toilet that somehow always felt spooky! :P smelly and spooky what a combo

 

And so.. here’s the last walk off – down this corridor / pathway . Out of the OLD Redfm OFFICE.

“All my bags are packed, I’m ready to go, I’m standing here outside the door.. I hate to leave you OLD RedFM OFFICE and say goodbye..”

A new chapter now begins for us at REDFM!

I can’t wait!!!
