Weight Loss Tips

I'm kind of bored as of the moment. Bored. Sad. Oh. I just miss my family back home. To make me forget about it a bit, I just would like to share some of my weight loss secret.

1. Drink at least three (3) liters of water a day. Flush all that toxins in your body ;) Water therapy is indeed effective!
2. Try to avoid eating in between meals. But if you can't, eat only a small amount of whatever it is you would like to eat or better yet, just eat fresh fruits like apple, mango, banana or orange.
3. Take food supplements. :)
4. Slowly let go of softdrinks and junk foods.
   
5. Take time to rest in a week. Relax.
   
6. Get enough sleep.
7. Move. move. move.
   
8. Exercise at least two to three times in a week.
9. Stay positive.
10. SELF DISCIPLINE :)
    

6 pounds lighter :)

Yep. My blog title says it all. I'm very happy with my weight loss program. :) Thanks to my weight loss coach and their wonderful product. :) I started with my program last week, January 13, 2009. Before I started, I recorded my body measurement and body weight as well. I used to weigh 143 lbs. last week, and now, I'm only 137 lbs. My waist trimmed down from 35 inches to 33 inches, my arms from 12.5 inches to 12 inches, my hips from 39 to 38 and my thighs from 25 to 22 inches. In just a week, I managed to lose that much weight which I used to think is so impossible. What makes me more happy is that I now have a normal bowel movement. :)

I will reveal my weight loss program next blog post after signing up a membership for this company. I'm soooooooo happy :)

New Year, New Life

This might be a late post for welcoming 2009, but I would still like to post my goals for this year of the Ox.

1. lose weight. yeah. LOSE weight. currently weighing 143 lbs., aiming to be 100 lbs or lighter by June 2009 :)
2. be organized. update to do list everyday.
3. spend less, save more or shall i say, INVEST more. returns on savings is so small that it would take like forever to see the returns though it is the safest, but i still believe that money is not my property, i need to let it go in order for it to FREELY FLOW in my life ;)
4. fight procrastination. **wish me luck**
5. hear Mass every Sunday.
6. spend time alone once a week.
7. take time to relax at least twice a month.
8. read the Twilight series. yep :) read more books, watch less TV.
   
9. watch movie more often.
10. do more charity works.
    

That's all for now :) I welcome 2009 with a big hug. New life, new hope, better ME :)

learning to let go on a friday...

A Friday is supposed to be a happy day for me since it's the last day of the work week (just for me because I have school during Saturdays). But this Friday is a very memorable one. A Friday full of disappointments and frustrations. A Friday full of stress and anxiety.

First and foremost, I woke up still sick. I woke up with a moderate headache, plus a very irritated and dry throat. Second, a trusted subordinate came in late for work 25 minutes late! And then the very last thing that I would expect to happen, my adopted sister's mobile phone stolen! And why would I be so disappointed? Well, fyi, the phone is soooooooo brand new. As in super brand new. And why am I so affected? I was the one who gave it to her for her birthday. It's actually one of the three phones I have received from Smart for subscribing to their TRIO Plan last Nov. 13, 2008. I have the two other phones shipped to Bacolod for my Mom and for my adopted sister whois also my cousin. Damn those pickpockets! I just can't help it. Sorry for cursing whoever that person was. I know that I have to let go and let nature take care of everything. I know karma will hit that person one day soon. I just can't let go. I just can't forgive that person. :( I can't blame my cousin 100% because I know she doesn't want it to happen. But then, if she only placed the phone in her bag and not in her pocket. I've forgiven her. She's so young to suffer the guilt feeling but I know that she have learned a very big lesson today. And that is to really take care of everything that she owns, be it hard earned or just given to her.

And here I am, still making myself feel better and constantly reminding myself that there will always be a rainbow after each storm.

Another new baby

Yeeep ;) Another new baby. Here he is, take a look at him.

I just received my first digital camera, a SAMSUNG S860. This is also the first item I bought at eBay. The first thing that I bought online. Online shopping can be so addictive. But I promised myself that this would be the first and last thing that I would buy online, for this year I guess (yes, I know ;), 2008 is already coming to an end... hehehe). I had a good deal with the seller, I actually saved almost two thousand bucks. Yep ;) That's the beauty of buying online, you can actually buy gadgets at a lower price.

I'm planning to make a photo blog. I already have the concept, but I'm still finalizing everything before publishing it to the World Wide Web. It's almost eleven in the evening, I think I need to rest now. I have a long day tomorrow. :)
