January is notorious on being the month for new beginnings; the start of habits, diets and fitness journeys; and for this month, my practice for self love continues. Many of your questions on my story Q&A had surrounded the idea of weight gain and self love. Self love was important for me to continue on happy and healthy, it stretches beyond the realms of lighting a candle and pampering myself, but requires a deep shift in mindset. Talking about weight gain is never easy for any girl, especially when social media is booming and the focus on aesthetics is greater than ever. I remember being teased for uploading content with my belly out and pinching my rolls, but silly content like that opened new doors for me. Being open and comfortable when talking about this helped change the way I view myself. The internalised thoughts of weight stigma or fatphobia began to disintegrate; and I squirmed a little less each time topics of weight gain were brought up. So with every post and step taken my body felt a little less broken, and gradually my words of criticism didn’t pop up so often when stood in front of a mirror. A journey like this is never linear, with leaps forward and a few steps back. Part of loving yourself is taking the bad with the good, making consistent effort each day in practising self love and remembering #allbodiesaregoodbodies . Throwing out lifelong conceptions that I’m not good enough for pubic standards; and instead feeling compassion and confidence when my thighs press against each other on the toilet, and being thankful for saving my phone from falling through. I chose peace and joy 🤎

Strengthen immunity, fight germs with honey! . All smiles on my little boy’s face as he takes a spoonful of @littlegreenbee_sg Lactopro 4 honey! Containing high levels of beneficial lactobascillus, it can not only improve our immunity system but also improve our gastro-intestinal health. Take a 1-2 spoonful after meal (without adding water) and your kids are well on your way to a stronger immunity. . As it contains a slight bit of sour taste due to the 17 amino acids, Travis did squirmed a little when his tongue first touch the honey but eventually swallowed the spoonful with delight because of the sweet aftermath taste. . Some points to note when consuming Lactopro 4 honey • Do not drink water 5-10mins after consuming the honey • Do not serve honey to kids below 1 year old • Do not dissolve honey in water, it should be taken only after food . Onwards to a better gut check out, @littlegreenbee_sg now . . #littlegreenbee #littlegreenbeesg #sglittlegreenbee #trigonaitamahoney #stinglessbees #honey #sgig #igsg #sgfaves #sp

I remember gasping in ecstasy, in my audience seat last year in Pentas 2, listening to the music arrangements of @lawd.dennis being performed. Quirky, effervescent, brooding and unexpected turns in all the songs we know well. I swear that it did kinda worked my panties into a twist, in a musical way, haha! That was @panproductionskl second edition of That’s Entertainment. I’m SO thrilled to be in the cast for That’s Entertainment 3, working on Dennis’ yet another batch of deliriously wonderful arrangements. Last night was first rehearsal, it’s note bashing week. We started with the most “easy” ensemble numbers. The seven singers sat on the floor with our stationery, and recorders, I believe we squirmed happily (and a bit nervous) through all the passages. The long story short is: the music in this show is gonna rock la. Show dates Oct 17-20 at DPAC. I can’t wait to memorize all my parts, looking forward to the staging of them songs! Thank you for having me on board @panproductionskl @goddessnell !! (And what a treat to be back in theatre with the thespians!) #janetleemusic #rehearsal #panproductionskl #thatsentertainment2019 #showgirldiary #musicdirector #ecstacy #musicecstacy
