People fear of dieting because they are afraid that they will have gastric. What many people doesn't know that if they do not practice balance diet soon, they may or will get these medical problem that connected to the health of our tummy:-

Gastrointestinal (dealing with stomach & intestines - sistem penghadam mcm perut, usus, dll)

-   Gastroesophageal reflux disease, GERD, chronic symptom of mucosal damage caused by stomach acid coming up from the stomach into the esophagus. GERD caused heartburn, trouble swallowing, increased salivation, chest pain, nausea, etc. (Kerosakan/masalah pada membran mukosa, lapisan kulit dalam, yg disbbkn asid perut naik dari organ perut ke esofagus/kerongkong. GERD akan menyebbkn pedih ulu hati, kesukaran utk menelan, sakit dada, muntah2, dll. ) -       Fatty liver disease, or in this case, Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, NAFLD, occured when fat is deposited into the liver NOT due to excessive alcohol use. It is related to insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome.. (Masalah pembuangan lemak ke organ hati yg bukan dissbkn oleh penggunaan arak/minuman beralkohol yg berlabihan. Penyakit ini boleh dikaitkan kepada masalah kerintangan insulin and sindrom metabolisma.) -    Cholelithiasis or gallstones. The risks increases for females, especially before menopause. Caused by combination of factors including inherited body chemistry, body weight, gallbladder motility and perhaps diet. (Masalah batu karang ginjal. Risiko utk menghidap penyakit ini adalah lebih tinggi terhadap kaum wanita yg belum menopause/monopos. Penyakit ini adalah disbbkn penggabungan pelbagai faktor seperti reaksi kimia tubuh badan yg diturunkan dari ibubapa, berat badan, pemakanan dan pergerakan batu karang.)

When you see an obese person throwing their gut out in the toilet, don't get judgemental yet. It does not mean that they are being bulimic to get skinny. They might have GERD.

AND don't get assumption that obese people do not get gastric. I know that feeling when I say I got gastric, doubtful mocking eyes that say "YOU? Gastric? Didn't you eat enough?" staring at me like I was saying something ridiculous. 

For non Malaysian/Sabahan readers, I don't know if you use the same term, but please note that when a Sabahan says s/he is having gastric, it does not necessarily means s/he got an gastric ulcer. S/he is either saying s/he threw up gastric/stomach acid or severe gastric pain from a mucosal erosions. A Sabahan will insist that s/he is having gastric "only" and will never admit it is a gastric ulcer until s/he is admitted to the hospital for the illness. We are just awesome like that. *note the sarcasm*

Till next time, gorgeous!
