in singapore, we have a conscript army. after our stint in the army, theres 10 years of reservist activities and a requirement to pass a fitness test yearly. failing that fitness test generally means 2mths of 2-3 2+ hours' remedial training sessions/week. a couple of years ago an option became available to overweight people to lose weight and hit some sort of bmi target in lieu of passing the fitness test. that is the motivation. i lost ~20 kgs(waaaay overdid it) in a couple of months by replacing all the rice in my diet to brocolli or tofu and smoking more instead of snacking. the problem i have this year is i dont qualify for that weight loss program anymore..
