Recently, she opened up about her current self-care lifestyle, her perspective on modern weight loss trends, and shared updates on her relationship with Pitch Kachai, describing it as a mature, stable, and very happy love.
When people talk about fitness enthusiasts, are you seen as an icon or symbol of health?
"I'm glad because it's something I've invested in for a long time. I've been exercising for years, and being part of the fitness community feels like a true reflection of myself."
Nowadays, many people are getting into aerobics. How does it benefit us?
"It's basically a form of cardio that raises heart rate through continuous movement. Some might think cardio only means running, cycling, or boxing, but dancing is also an activity that trains the heart."
How do you feel about many places now offering aerobics activities?
"It's great, especially since many are free. When there's no cost involved, people have fewer excuses. It encourages more people to come and exercise."
How do you manage your diet?
"These days, I’m not as strict as before. Since I burn a lot of energy and also teach, I need strength and energy, so I eat normally. But I try to control late-night meals and sometimes skip them."
May I ask about the current trend of "weight loss pen injections"? As someone who exercises, what's your opinion?
"Ultimately, everyone should focus on health through exercise, whether intense or light. Whatever method you choose, it should be safe and supervised by a doctor. I trust doctors the most since I've studied medicine. Health should come from within, not just from shaping your body."
What motivates you to get up and exercise, especially when some people feel lazy?
"I think about how costly and time-consuming it is to be sick and unable to do what you love. That makes me want to stay healthy and strong, so I can spend time with loved ones, enjoy activities, and eat delicious food for a long time."
Does controlling your diet help a lot?
"Yes, it helps with portion control. You don't have to eat until you're full to bursting—just enough. You can still choose tasty food. It's not about eating clean anymore; it's about knowing how much energy you burn and balancing intake. I eat everything."
Do you eat pork belly?
"Of course! The fatty, delicious parts that many think make you fat—they're tasty, right? I eat it, but since I don't like too much fat, I don't eat a lot. Fatty meat tastes better anyway."
Do many people ask you for health care tips?
"Yes, but they already see my healthy lifestyle and regular exercise over a long time. They know this isn't something that happens overnight; it's a continuous effort."
Does your boyfriend ask for advice?
"No, no one asks. He knows I like to exercise, and we often go together. There's no secret; we just do our own activities, sometimes together, but mostly each does their own thing."
Does he like exercising?
"He exercises his own way; I do mine. We're into different things. He plays sports, while I lean more toward fitness."
Have you ever tried exercising together or recommended ways to each other?
"Yes, but I’m not skilled. I don’t have athletic skills. Some might think since I exercise a lot, I’m good at sports, but my athletic ability isn’t high."
Do you watch sports, maybe to see handsome players?
"I mean, all sports have handsome players. I watch sometimes (laughs). For example, golf, which I practice, I watch it, but watching doesn’t mean I can do it well."
May I ask for a relationship update? How is it going?
"Okay, same as before, just the same."
How same? In the beginning, was it like this?
"Exactly the same. No surprises, no big changes, and I’m happy with the relationship as it is."
Do you have moments where you add sweetness or affection?
"Yes, very normal. When we’re free, we go out to eat together, something like that."
And from him? Any sweet moments?
"Normal, not overly sweet."
You both seem busy lately, right?
"Yes, and that’s good."
Does it cause issues when one is busy and the other isn’t?
"No. We need stability in our careers; that’s important. The busier, the better—I really like that."
Because you are more mature now?
"Yes."
How do you manage your time together? How do you schedule meetings?
"Oh, no fixed schedule. Whenever we’re free, we drop by to see each other or have meals together."
Is this more stable? Do you see love as giving each other space?
"Honestly, when I’m stable, I’m not like a kid who feels love is confining. I feel like having a home, work, and a future makes me stable. I build myself up, so love becomes something that complements life. Ultimately, my life is stable."
How do you both plan your future since you’re getting older?
"We don’t talk about it much; we focus on ourselves. He has his work and a condo he’s developing. I focus on making my life stable. It’s not selfish; just when we’re stable, other things fall into place."
Do you send each other encouragement messages, like "You have a tough day at work"?
"We talk a lot on the phone; it’s part of what fills us up."
