Many people were asking a same question to me, “Are you losing weight? You look thinner.”

I believe many ladies would feel happy if someone said that to them. But, this is not I wanted. I think I look better if I can put on more weight. Hence, I would say, “No, is still the same. Maybe just changed of my hairstyle and it makes me looks thinner”.

In fact, I am losing 2KG of weight.

My colleagues advised me go to do a medical check-up. But, I have great confident to my body. I always believe that I will have long life.

So, you resolution of the year is to become thinner, or put on more weight?

My boss bumped into me in the lift after having lunch. Suddenly, she looked and me and ask,

“Sean, are you a vegetarian now?”

She was shocked when she saw my monky photo album on my Facebook. Then, she started to feel curios about my direction, Haha!

“Why?” I answered her. I think it was impolite but I really didn’t know how to answer her question. Another colleague was in the lift, and then she smartly helped me to explain that I am practicing it, but not entirely.

Yes. I start practicing it before I went for the short-term monk “sojourn”. It is good for health. But I still eat meat occasionally especially when I hang out with friends or colleagues. I still go to normal restaurant but just order food that without meat. I am not a “fulltime” vegetarian, but vegetable is my main food resources.

This is  answer to my boss and other friends and colleagues.

Hmm… are you vegetarian too? Or a meat lover?

This is sad news for Fitness First members at Menara Axis, starting 1^st September 2009 onwards, the member has to pay for the parking fees during the off peak hours. Last time, members enjoy free parking after office hours (5pm – 10pm), weekend and public holidays. Now they have imposed RM1 fees during this period.

One of the reasons that Fitness First attracts my attention is the free parking. That’s why I stay for more than two years. I go about more than 15 times a month, so I need to pay RM15 extra of my member fees. I know it is not really much, but I prefer it is free.

After freezing my Fitness First membership and go for True Fitness, now I finally back to Fitness First. It is still the fitness center that I like the most, so far.

I think I have been to few fitness center in KL, let me do a summary on that based on my ranking.

1)Fitness First
The Menara Axis branch actually give free parking after 5pm. I like this point. They also have a lot of branches in PJ and KL. So, I have no problem to access the center, nice location for me. Apart of it, I prefer the environment there. I can rest at juice bar and having drinks (FOC) while reading paper. I don’t feel like lost and had nothing to do while resting.
However, I hope they would have more space, more classes~!

2)True Fitness
This could be my second choice if someday I am far away from FF OR they provide the service like FF does. True Fitness well known with the space. They really have huge space and a lot of machines. I have been at True Fitness at Jaya33. There have swimming pool!
The membership that offers by TF is also cheaper than FF. As long as you know how to bargain, you definitely can get cheaper deal. Remember, determination is the key. They are actually desperately need members because of the huge space. Oh yeah, their group exercise classes are more than FF!

3)Celebrity Fitness
This is the first fitness center that I joined, and I will never back again! Nothing that I like at Celebrity Fitness. Perhaps I don’t like the environment at all. But I heard at Subang branch has free nursery service, perhaps this could attract more mum to go there? They also give free towel service for customers, but I still prefer to use my own towel. They are running promotion in 365 days. Don’t worry you will miss anything.

However, I hope to visit Clark Hatch some day. I don’t know but I have no interest in California Fitness. I heard they offer the cheapest membership compared to other. Anyway, the above comments just based on my personal preference. Hope it could help you to choose a right fitness center.
