First Step on Loosing Weight

January 2009.

Im afraid if someone is taking pictures of me. I was never like this before. Im playful with the camera, im confident and liked to be photographed. Lately, i noticed that i was way too fat and becoming fatter every day. And with each angle, i am so concious to pose and hide those love handles. I even hated some pictures because of those noticeable bulges on me. I definitely changed size and it doesnt looked good on me.

Until my boss gave me one of the greatest gift last christmas. It was a book from Dr. Will Clower entitled "The French Dont Diet Plan". A natural dietary plan which discourages dieting. Isnt it amazing? With someone who have the most appetite for something worth eating and enjoying everything the table can offer, this book is one of the greatest companion. A much better alternative than those popular dieting plans.Now i am eating rich foods for a hopeful effortless weight loss! And like Julia Child...she believes people should eat what they love. Clap Clap Clap.

So I started reading this book last January and was following the diet plan for a week now. I may say that i havent noticed drastic changes at all on my body weight. But i am more food conscious now. The very popular commercial now says that "it pays to check the label". And that is the secret dieting program. I am more picky on my food. Not wanting any fake foods. Sodas and all those fake fruit juices tastes bad for me now. I just cant take it. Everytime im dining in, im ordering a bottle of water or a cup of tea or coffee instead. And i was enjoying it. I am now looking and very sensitive on the taste of the food. No more chemicals. Food inatake should all be natural. In fact, i feel great.Actually, the book says that loosing weight takes time. But i am not so eager to meet my deadlines. I am enjoying my food, my real foods. And i feel life is all about rich foods!

I know i will look gorgeous again (confident as i may say). That someday, ill be very proud and confident on my looks. It takes time to regain it. But im enjoying every moment of it. No more strict diet plan that makes me pressured. I eat what i love. And i know i will hit it in time...

Make Me Home No.4

Welcome to Make me Home edition 4. Weve been doing the dining, living and kitchen already and i guess its proper to feature a bedroom as well. This time, i want to feature a bedroom which is so typical to a filipino setting where the bedroom is shared by siblings. It is a common fact that due to limited space and budget, room sharing is an option to a modest family. Though privacy may be a little bit of a problem when sharing a space, intimacy and healthy relationships can be strengthen by sharing a room with someone who are dear to us. This room may be bit of a challenge for me. When i saw the room, i thought, a bed with a pull out will definitely solve the small space problem. But, its kinda ackward for someone to sleep on the pull out right? In fact, sleeping in a pull out is just an option for a sleep overs. It will be greater and even righteous to give a bed to everyone so they can have a space of their own. So i envisioned a "chic retreat style" for this bedroo

The L shaped Sofa

An L shape sofa is a sofa that is literally designed in the shape of an L. It is designed like this for a number of reasons, and is a great choice for many different kinds of living rooms. Many people are buying L shaped sofas these days, in fact, for all of the benefits they offer. So, in case you have not been able to witness these benefits firsthand, here they are! First and foremost, an L shape sofa gives you more actual sitting room than does a regular sofa. Why? Well, because there is simply more of it to sit on! There is the main section (much like a normal couch), then, there is the elbow (a very relaxing spot to sit, I might add..), and the rest of the L on the end...which is usually the size of at least a small loveseat. And since there is so much room on these pieces to sit, you can fit a lot more people onto an L shaped sofa like this than you could on a regular sofa. The next benefit that an L shape sofa gives us is the benefit of being more affordable. Now, at this, you

La Residencia Almar...my home in Dumaguete

This is La Residencia Almar in Dumaguete City where i stayed for six nights. Actually, this is my second time to stay in this hotel because i was here last year. I opted to stay again in this hotel because i love the view in its front and it is smaller than the usual hotel located in Dumaguete. In front of the hotel is the famous Dumaguete Boulevard where a lot of people, local and tourist gather every morning and at night to see the majestic view of the sea. But what makes me desire to stay once again is tits beautiful interior, a Balinese theme which i always love in every home. The nice lighting fixture greeted me as I enter the hotel. This is spectacular especially at night. I love the simple but colorful detail at the base of the chandelier. The nuetral paint, with mostly beige, white and brown accentuated by several niches where an old jars are kept in display, trimmings and wooden pieces makes me think that I am in an old world retreat but never forgetting the asian herit
