My own Top 5 ways of working out (without feeling it)

1. Shopping!!! – Like every girl I know, shopping is the best way to stay fit. It really doesn’t matter whether you buy something or just go on a hunt for good bargains (and going home with just an item or two). Best thing about it, is you don’t feel tired at all when you…

Workouts on CD/DVD

Have you tried those DVD workouts advertised on TV? Those that are usually sold in home tv shopping? Well, I tried 2 actually. But unfortunately, it did not work for me. Yes, those beautiful abs that they have on TV are kind of enticing. But it takes a lot of hard work, and a lot…

Every parent wants what’s best for their child. Same goes when it comes to food intake and nutrition. I bet, those people who come from the poorest of the poor will buy the best food that their meager income can buy for their little ones. However, it really is a hard time for most moms…

Choco-Loco

I am crazy for chocolates! I love everything chocolate! From the Godiva hot-chocolate drink to the bittersweet dark truffles of Trader Joe’s. I could eat half of the canister in one sitting! Thank goodness, I don’t have diabetes (and hoping, I don’t develop such). How I pity a friend of mine who’s allergic to chocolates….

Water therapy

Water is very essential in our everyday lives. Not only is it important for us physically, but it also helps us psychologically. I personally use water therapy all the time. I have allergic rhinitis. And as a nursing mom, I find it very uncomfortable to have runny nose while breastfeeding my baby. Whenever I have…

Bra in bed

They say that wearing a bra in bed is cancerous. Well, that’s what my mom and my grandma taught me when I was still a little girl. Back then, I was really excited about wearing a bra so I sometimes slept with a bra on. However, I was reprimanded, so there was no choice left…

Glutathione

Almost everyone in the Philippines wants to be white (badly!). You can find all kinds of whitening products in every corner of the country. I remember a mentor of ours, telling one of my classmates (she has coffee-colored skin), “Why are you ashamed of your color? Frankly, I don’t understand why you want to be…
