Originally posted by Rhonda:Donkey years ago, The Straits Times had an article that explains why some folks chuff down fatty pork and don't get fat nor high cholesterol whilst others do the same thing, and they become fat as mammoths and their cholesterol shoots through the roof.
Apparently, genetics had a part to play - you're either born with the hepatic ability to process and metabolise cholesterol well, or you're not. And some are blessed with a high basal metabolic rate, thus they can eat like two mother pigs combined, but remain twiggy-slim.
I sooooo wish I was born with a high basal metabolic rate! Mom and dad knew when I was a newborn, that they had a greedy pig
on their hands.
Somehow, even at THAT tender age of 0, I already demonstrated a natural love of food.
Sigh... some of us just aren't meant to be part of the slim and pretty brigade...
That's why I'm not having kids! This unfortunate legacy stops with me! Oink! Oink!
die lah, i like the fatty parts... and i have 1/3 of wat i should have for metabolism... the consultant got shocked and i jokingly told him, cos i'm in "sleep" mode most of the time hahahahahaa

But if it's protein and fats I'm fine
I'm quite sensitive to carbs too! Too much rice / pasta / bread, and I bloat terribly!
And I can't take wholewheat bread at all - I feel terribly sick from indigestion and bloatedness.
I think in my old age, I will have a higher propensity of developing wheat intolerance and possibly, gluten intolerance as well... si liao! ![]()
I'm fine with proteins and fats too... for eg. after eating KFC, I feel very very happy! ![]()
Haha seems like we have the same problem

Biangz... speaking of LS, this reminds me of a quick chat I had with a young lady when we met each other on the staircase whilst climbing the 3 storeys to the one and only public toilet in some tamade blardy condemned old shopping mall right in the midst of town in Bourke Street!
I was climbing down, and she was climbing up, looking around puzzled. I asked if she needed help and she responded, "Yeah, mate... is this the way up to the public restroom?"
"Yeah, mate! Incredible but yes. You have to climb all those stairs before you reach the ladies'." She huffs and puffs and looks tired, staring up... "Good luck, mate! Aren't you glad we aren't old ladies who are urinary incontinent and on wheelchairs?"
She laughed, and then we went on our way.
I tell you, it's sooo hard to get easy access to public toilets in Melbourne. Most malls position them in some godforsaken location and they don't provide enough signage to show you where the toilets are! It's almost as if they DON'T want you to find them!
I have followed the arrows in a mall once, and then suddenly, all signs disappeared, and I was literally standing right in the middle of the pathway, looking left, right, and center, wondering, what the?!! Toilet... WHERE?!
Biangz... compared to here, Singapore is like public toilet mecca! ![]()

Just cause I ate a bowl of rice the day before, biangz... the whole of yesterday and today, I felt sluggish! I never realised the effect it had on me when I was back in SG but here, where I eat noodles almost all the time, I realised what rice does to me.
OK, time to get me butt down to Bridge Road to ta bao noodles!! ![]()

Same! This is the reason why I don't like eating rice
Noodles are ok though
Err they don't make the toliets accessible and also lock up the toliets because they don't want the homeless staying in the toliets or druggies going in late at night to shoot up

That's true... but it doesn't make it easy for normal peeps like me who just wanna pee!
Nowadays, everytime I venture out, I have to make sure that I don't drink too much water, just in case I need to climb three storeys to find some ()*#($&@!# hidden toilet, and pee halfway on the steps!

The public toilets here have sharps boxes for the druggies to dispose of their sharps. Initially, when I first got here, I was soooo naive, I thought, "Wah... first-class consideration for the poor diabetics who need to give themselves insulin injections! How thoughtful!"
