Obesityyy strikes Brunei

GOOODDD MOORRRNNIIINNGGG EEVVERRRYYONNNEEE!! It’s almost noon (11.22 am) and I’m now having my GP in the computer lab. Today, we were given a topic about OBESITY. Talking about obesity, i think every country suffered this kind of problem and they're trying to overcome it. Obesity in my opinion is a fat that accumulated in our body and the fat becomes bigger and bigger but in more scientific definition, it was stated that obesity is a condition where there is excess body weight due to an abnormal accumulation of fat which defined objectively as a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or more. Like in Brunei, I think obesity is one of the major problems that we are having now. Well, we can’t deny about it as we can see those ‘big’ people are all around us even right besides you now. Isn’t it? Unfortunately, we can’t blame anyone for it because FOOD is UNRESISTABLE. Well, you know ‘FOOD IS FOR THOUGHT’ so it is kinda hard to avoid it but I know everyone is trying to reduce the amount but not to avoid it 100%. If we do avoid it, I am pretty sure all Bruneian will be skinny and everyone will look like a skeleton haha and im pretty sure obesity in brunei would be vanished 100% but ANEROXIA will be waiting @ the end of the road! C’mon laa guys..?!! How came we can avoid fast food in this country? How can we don’t eat burger? French fries? Grill and fried chicken? Haha ok, enough of that! Back to our survey!


As I said earlier, Ms Sheena gave us a survey on snack food and we have to complete the survey to figure out about our snack food habits plus she said we have to compare our survey with our neighbors. In this case, my neighbors are Akalily and Suhailah =) In the survey, i think i rarely drink fizzy drinks,, may be once a month or a week. Mostly depends on the day or the occasions =) I am not much a fizzy drink’s junkie =) well, both neighbors saying that they were having same answer as me which is once a month or a week. I think this is a good sign because we now realized that fizzy drinks contain lots and lots of sugar.. What about bags of snack foods such as potato chips, pretzels and cheesies? i do eat them but to make it more surprising, i think i only eat a bag of those junks, may be once a week or three times a month and i prefer to buy a smaller one because you know, i don't have enough MONEY to buy the big one haha but if i do have, i would buy the SUPEERRRSIZZZEE haha (apanya urg brunei? JGN ALANG2) =p and once again, my answer are same as Suhailah’s. Since I was in PTE, I think it’s like every day that I eat candy. Haha I would say that I am a CANDY’S ADDICT. Vary from Suhaila’s answer, she told me that she only eats 4 times a week. Well, that’s ok =). The next question is about how often do we eat baked or fried sweets such as cookies or donuts? Hmff.. I can’t say much of it because I rarely eat those stuffs.. To make it more specifically, I only eat cookies if there is cookies @ home, may be once a week or twice a month especially during special occasions laa, for eg, Hari Raya haha for sure! But I loveee cookies though especially from Famos Amos *hmfff nyum nyum * ;P plus donuts from Bakelynn waaaaaa~~~ that’s a big WWAAAAAA for it and big thumbs up! Compared to Suhailah’s, she only eat may be once a month. That’s ok! =)

Furthermore, I think I don’t eat sweetened cereal like Honey Stars, Cornflakes, Coco Crunch and whatever that so often during breakfast or whenever. Well, sometimes if my mom bought it, that will be our breakfast though. What I am trying to say is, it all depends to my mom! She prepares everything for us but im not trying to say that we can’t do it ourselves.. well, you know! Mom knows everything~~ haha apakanz?!! NEXXXTTTT~~ I like this question, how often do you eat at fast food outlets such as Pizza Hut, KFC, McDonalds, etc?? my answer is simple! SELDOM! It is not that I don’t like to go there, it just that I DON’T HAVE MONEYYYY haha *banar x a!* I think, may be once a month, atupunn if kana blanja haha well, Suhailah said she went there like twice a month perhaps. Andd I prefer to go to Ideal or Jolibee rather than Ayamku, KFC or McD but Suhailah like KFC better. Weelll, different people, different taste haha Size of serving?? Mostly I choose regular but depends on what they have on their menu. Vary from Suhailah’s, she would have her meals to be in supersize but she have to share with her other siblings.. poor herr~~ more to say, jimattt bajet! Hehe LOL. Finally, the last question. The question is how often do you “super-size” your order? The answer is simple! NEVERR! It is because if I super-size my order, it would double up the price! It’s not all about how much fat do we eat, it’s also about money we’re talking here guys! Haha ;P i don’t want to spend all my money that I saved for super-size meals. C’mon laaa… hmff like I said earlier, Suhaila did super-size her meals but they have to share it so everyone can have equally.


p/s i didnt write Akalily's answer because she was busy blogging so i didn't want to disturb her =)
