Last update on my Tiny Teatox experience!
10 am - A cup of Tiny Teatox
11 am - 1 Medium Banana
1 pm - Black Vinegar Pork Trotters (猪脚醋) w/ half bowl of white rice
5 pm - Vanilla Swiss Roll from DJ Bakery cus Cleaner Auntie told me it was nice so I bought it and even though I wasn't hungry but having it on my work desk made me open and eat it up uncontrollably. *Facepalm*
8 pm - Yakitori Bento Box via UberEats. Consisted of 2 sticks of Chicken, 1 stick of Chicken Ball, 1 stick of Pork Belly w/ Japanese White Rice.
I had actually planned to skip dinner or like just have some fruits but then I thought... I had the free delivery for 3 orders till the end of May and it was getting to the end of May already and I only used once, so why not order something. Ya. Ok. That's my excuse. I just want to eat.
So ya, that's one of the rare days of eating so much rice.
-
After the above, Day 14, I totally went out of hand.
I ate A LOT on the following week. I lost about 2 kg throughout the 14 days on the Tiny Teatox and a slightly controlled diet but gained it all back in a week's time when I went back to how I used to eat. I didn't gain any extra than how much I was when I started, it was just like back to the starting point.
I just cannot control? Like I don't have a lot of cravings but I just feel like I want to eat something. Not just anything though. I need to eat something... Hot, salty or spicy, just... A cooked meal. I really cannot make it long enough with just eating fruits for either lunch/dinner.
I was telling one of my friend who was very into all these health and fitness stuff, is it I need to change my diet forever to really lose weight then she told me I need to exercise too.
Sigh!
Is it really old already? Like I always tell my friends, I have the type of body that even when I breathe I will also gain weight. Hahaha!

Tiny Tea Teatox Day 13
9 am - A cup of tiny tea to start my day
10 am - Felt a little hungry so I uncontrollably opened my office drawer and grabbed a pc of Royce Chocolate and the Baton Cookie given by a colleague.
11 am - Had a banana
1 pm - Finally lunch time, had a pc of Red Beannie Bun cus I was lazy to step out of office
5 pm - Recalled that I have a pc of Kim Choo Mini Rice Dumpling in the fridge so I heated it up in the microwave but I overdid it. The corners of the rice dumpling were hardened and so I had a really little soft part left to eat, such a waste, but it was free anyways so actually also not that wasted haha! Some more I decided to heat it up to eat not because I was hungry, it was just because it has been a few days since I received it and I thought like, if I don't eat it now it might turn bad before I have the chance to eat it? Idk. Me and my logic. Logic coming out from a glutton.
7 pm - Didn't know what to have for dinner but I found a cup of 四川即食冒菜 which I bought from my Yuehwa shopping spree in Chinatown some time back sitting in the drawer! So I took it out, added 2 pcs of cheese tofu, 4 pcs of pork balls and 1 pc of chicken frank followed by adding in all the seasoning packs and realised... the cup can't fit all that I've added into it. So I transferred everything to a pot and cooked it on the stove instead. Who knows, it came out to be a super big bowl of "mini steamboat". *facepalm*
& so... That was my story of overeating again. Wth.

I really need to learn how to control my diet and the portion, PORTION!! If I cannot control my portion, I don't think there will be anything that can help me lose all the weight I gained over the years. Sigh!

TINY TEA TEATOX DAY 12 & 7TH ANNIVERSARY! ♥
Day 12:
Finished a cup of Tiny Tea before 10 am and then I ate a piece of Butter Sugar Bun from my current favourite bakery - DJ Bakery. Their buns are so soft and tasty and cheap!! I got introduced to this bakery by the cleaner auntie from my workplace, she recommended the Red Beanie Bun which only costs $0.60 from the Chinatown outlet but it is differently named - Roti.
After trying the Red Beanie Bun ($0.60), I tried a few other flavours as well, like the Nyonya Otak-Otak ($1.30), Chocolate Bomb ($1.20), Chicken Char Siew Bao ($1.20), Superman Chicken Fillet ($1.60), Chicken Ham & Cheese ($0.90), Kaya Butter ($0.90) and Potato Curry ($0.90). I personally preferred the Red Beanie Bun, Chicken Char Siew Bao and the Superman Chicken Fillet was not bad too.
Anyways, I steeped a teabag and drank it approx. 30 mins before my lunch time. I had Bittergourd Slice Fish with Bee Hoon for lunch and a bottle of Meiji Paigen Culture Milk cus I saw someone drinking on the street and it made me feel like drinking also haha! I'm always like this... Copycat one. See people drink I also want. Lol!
Benny came to look for me at my workplace after I ended work and we went to have the international buffet at Grand Copthorne Waterfront - Food Capital. Yay! Been super long since we had int'l buffet! There is an ongoing promotion for UOB Cardholders so we got 1-for-1 yay! Total bill came up to $87 for 2 pax.
There were also ice cream and sashimi + tempura counter but I didn't manage to snap shots.

| If I'm not wrong, there was a beef stew in one of the pot and it was quite good. |
 |
| You can't really tell what's in these pots from this #fail photo I took, basically, these are Chinese cuisine, like shrimps, veg w/ tofu, stir-fry pork and the last one I cannot recall what it is. 2 of the pots were white rice. So you're actually only getting 4 dishes here. |
 |
| Sorry for the overexposed photo. These are Indian cuisine. Not too bad. |
 |
| Can you see the Snow Crab Leg in the red pails?! They were good! Sweet and juicy. Yum. The prawn was fresh also. I can't say about the rest because I don't eat those. The Oysters were gone pretty quickly though, I supposed it were good? If not the people will not be crowding around and attacking the Oysters placed on the silver bucket. |
 |
| I loved the fruit crumble! Wanted to go for a 2nd serving but my stomach really doesn't want to allow me to fit in any more food. Not even desserts. Yes. |
There were also ice cream and sashimi + tempura counter but I didn't manage to snap shots.
I must say, the food was normal and as you can see, the varieties were limited. I wouldn't want to pay $87 per pax for this buffet cus I can definitely find a better quality buffet for around the same price.
I don't think I will go back again, nonetheless, it was a good experience to try new buffet places.
Ended my day with a cup of Tiny Tea after we reached home.

Tiny Tea Teatox Day 11
My prayers were answered. Lol.
In my previous post, I was hoping to have a detox to flush out all the junks I ate. And I did.
Major flush. Haha! Had a diarrhea last night before dinner at Mum's place.
Anyways, yesterday was another day which I had 3 cups of Tiny Tea in a day! One in the morning before a Ham and Cheese bun from Barcook Bakery. Second in the noon after my lunch, Tomato Sauce and Ham bun from Barcook Bakery as well and third after I got home from dinner at Mum's place.
Oh in between I had a cup of Green Tea Frappe w/ Java Chips from Starbucks. Sugar overload these days. Starbucks really need to stop these one-for-one promotion if not me and my Starbucks kaki cannot stop. Haha!
I will put a stop to this Tiny Tea journal in 3 days time!
So far so good...

Tiny Tea Teatox Day 10
Day 10:
Ordered Golden Toast from Tuk Tuk Cha for breakfast lunch via UberEats cus I have the free delivery discount until the end of May!
Followed by a cup of Tiny Tea after approx. 30 mins to 1 hour.
The toast was surprisingly good! I don't think I need to mention about the condensed milk lol. It was just the normal usual condensed milk that can be bought everywhere. The Pandan Kaya dip was disappointing though. Not sure was it because the condensed milk was too sweet, I found that the Pandan Kaya dip was bland and too watery. I love the toast though!
Dinner was taken close to 6 pm. Rice dumplings by Mum and Nyonya dumpling from Kim Choo given by Company. Took a cup of green tea to aid digestion.
Craving for instant noodles so around 9 pm, I cannot take it anymore, I had to go and cook a packet. Topped with a sunny side-up some more. Cannot stand myself. Sigh!
Had the 2nd cup of Tiny Tea around 9:30 pm.
Please let me detox to flush out all the junks I ate *prays*

Tiny Tea Teatox Day 5 - 9
Day 5:
Was on MC, only woke up around 2:30 pm. Drank a cup of tiny tea around 5:30 pm followed by dinner. It was a day of indulgence haha. I had a chocolate waffle before dinner at Mum's place plus a red bean Potong after dinner AND some more chips after I reached home. Tsk tsk tsk...
Day 6:
Drank a cup of tiny tea around 9 am to start my day and had a smooth sailing detox around 11 am. Haven't detox for several days so it really felt good to flush the wastes from my body!
2nd cup of the day was taken around 2plus after my salad lunch at 1 pm. I had a detox again shortly after!
Went to get Starbucks around 4 pm cus the one-for-one was still on. Followed by the 3rd cup around 8 pm after I got home from dinner at Mum's place.
It was the first time I had taken 3 cups of Tiny Tea in a day!
Day 7:
I was thinking, I have like 50 over satchels of the teabags and wonder if I should stop the record probably around Day 14? Every day is similar and even though we are on Day 7, I haven't really detoxed more than thrice. One thing to note though, my weight has been going down. Yay! It could be due to the slight change in my diet or the tea or both.
As usual, I had 2 cups for this day.
Day 8:
Had a cup in the morning and another before I left work.
Red Bean Danish for breakfast, Tomyum Mee Hoon Kuey for lunch, Gongcha Earl Grey Milk Tea with 3J during teatime and Tomyum Chicken Fried Rice with Iced Tea for dinner.
I totally overate again. Sugar overloaded as well. Sigh!
Day 9:
Only had a cup on this day cus when I woke up it was already half day gone haha!
Had a milo snack bar after waking up. Just because cravings. Sigh!
Drank a cup of Tiny Tea before dinner at Mum's place. Tried to help her to wrap the rice dumplings but it was too difficult!! I gave up after maybe 5 attempts?
Speaking of the rice dumplings, I ate a total of 3 rice dumplings!! Or was it 4? Omg. I cannot. Lol. Too nice already. After that during the midnight, Benny still wanted to cycle to get supper and brought back a packet of Mee Goreng and 3 pcs of Prata.
Had a cup of Tiny Tea after the sinful supper. Didn't have any difficulties falling asleep.
I don't even want to step up onto the weighing scale again after all that I've put in my body this week.

After I got home, I did the laundry and packed half of the wardrobe cus recently I saw the what Marie Kondo declutter thing. So I tried on one of the drawers the other day and thought it was really saving up a lot of space and I can now fit in more stuff than it used to.

| Captain Roll from Seattle Pike Chowder I would say, I won't see myself going back to this place again. The bun was super hard though the fillings were nice. Maybe I should've ordered their chowder instead. But then again, this Captain Roll was stated as their signature. Hmm... |

| My Starbucks one-for-one kaki haha |

Tiny Tea Teatox Day 2
Day 2:
Got up in the noon and had my first cup on an empty stomach around 2 pm.
Had Mee Hoon Kuey for lunch around 3 pm.
No signs of detox today but I had a pimple which was ready to pop. Not sure if it was caused by the detox or what haha.
The 2nd cup was taken around 6 pm? Followed by dinner at 8 pm. Ate the Maggie Oatmee which I bought in Giant Tampines the other day after trying the sample. I like it!
Oh, for the 2nd cup, I tried adding a teaspoon of raw organic honey to it and it tasted better!
Anyways, late dinner tonight cus I was busy fixing up the kids teepee and Benny's bicycle, which I failed to assemble it in the end and Hugo had to drop by with Eileen to help.
The Bro and family came over because I knew this teepee was definitely going to attract Hannah to want to come over to my place! That was the main purpose of this purchase.
This photo below shows what it looked like after the kids left. Am I creating trouble for myself? Lol.
And so... finally, all my parcels from Ezbuy are delivered! Now I don't have anything pending already. Is it time to do some shopping again? Haha!

Tiny Tea Teatox by Your Tea
Just received my box of the Tiny Tea Teatox from Your tea and I thought I'll blog about my day-to-day experience! I'll try and do it every day and update the blog at the end of each day.
Trying to detox my body due to the constant breakouts I had on the sides of my face and chin recently. Hoping to shed some pounds whilst on the detox too!
Got off the bed at 7:15 am. Reached workplace around 9 am.
Took my first cup of tiny tea on an empty stomach around 10plus in the morning. Within 2 hrs, I felt "vibration" in my tummy which could be caused by trapped wind. Went to the toilet shortly after that but only passed out very little loose stool. Sorry if that's TMI. Haha!
Had my lunch at 1 pm. 1 medium sized banana and 1 golden kiwi.
Took the 2nd cup of the day around 3:30 pm. That was the last cup for the day as I planned to drink twice instead of the instructed thrice a day.
The tea actually tasted like Bioslim Detox Tea, or is it like all the teas taste the same haha! It's a little bitter and tasteless so I might add some honey into it for tomorrow.

Not sure if it's just me, my throat felt dry after drinking the tea. I shall drink more water to hydrate myself. I think I only drunk like 500ml till now - 3:50 pm
Went to the toilet around 4plus for a light detox.
Earlier on around 8 pm while I was waiting for my Uber ride after my class ended, I felt really really thirsty even though I finished 500ml bottle of mineral water within 1.5 hr. Not sure if it was caused by the tea or the Thai Chicken Noodles Soup I had for dinner.
Downed a can of Ayataka Green Tea right after reaching home and now I'm all good. - 10:49pm
