fasting...

can you not blame me for being grouchy today??? i finally decided to push through with my gb thrush...for three days, i'll only consume apples...you read it right... just apples... i feel hungry even if i already ate 2 apples... 1 for breakfast and 1 for lunch... i couldn't stand it when i starve myself to death with the delectable and sumptuous meals that our cafeteria has to offer... 2 days to go... i hope i can make it till saturday, or else, i'll just have my gall bladder removed... anyway, did you know that apple seeds contain a cyanide compound? it could lead to poisoning if eaten in large amounts.... apple is not the only fruit that has a poisonous seed, but there are also other fruits that has small levels of cyanide in the seeds or pits when chewed or digested like cherry, plum, apricot and peach. almond is also included, i guess...

ranting about my weight

i practically don't have a weighing scale at home, simply because i'm not that conscious with my figure... most of the time, i eat what i crave for and there's no stopping me...wink...wink... but lately, everyone has been ranting about my weight except me... i've posted on my previous post that i gave up my low carb-no red meat diet since the time i transferred to my new place and probably, that's the reason behind my bulging tummy... and then it hit me! from 110 lbs. i'm already weighing 120 lbs. i hate to exagg on the matter but gaining 10 lbs in just 6 months was a complete disaster...now is the right time to minimize my food intake but not sacrificing the nutrients that my body needs in order to function well... goodbye, red meat... goodbye fats...goodbye carbonated drinks!!! hello, fruits and veggies... but then again, i'm not doing this for anybody...i'm doing this crash diet for myself...

Maximize that Saving Power

i read in a book that for you to be able to save money and start your own business, you have to ask yourself if you're at the right kind of job.... true enough, a right job would mean more opportunities, career growth and even promotions.it's undeniably true that there's no point in holding a job that will not satisfy you in terms of salaries and wages...come on, we work our asses off to earn a living and not to be drowned in debts... lemme give you some pointers on how to maximize that saving power... ·avoid eating out at fancy restos very often...lutong bahay is still the best ·try ukay-ukay instead of buying brand new items...if second hand clothings aren't your thing, try tiangges and bazaars...for best bargains try haggling in divisoria.it's also the best spot if you're looking for fabrics, curtains and native products...you can even buy veggies there at very low price ·avoid impulsive buying, prioritize your needs ·proper diet, proper nutrition and re...

so sick...

it's over 6 months since i transferred to a new place...and it's been over six months since i bid farewell to my low carb - no red meat diet... its been ages since i last heard about healthy eating when all i did was to feast on fatty foods like lechon, crispy pata, pork barbeque, chicken inasal, fried chicken, grilled liempo and so on... it took me 6 months to realize that i've been endangering myself to gall bladder diseases having all that unsaturated fats in my liver...hell yes, I just had a gall bladder attack yesterday and it sucks...i was still clueless about whats happening to me, yet i ate chicken curry for lunch...then it hit me...mild to moderate pain at the bottom of my right rib cage...burping and all that...been there and i know how it feels... now, i am restricted to eating fatty foods...just high fiber diet for me...i'm planning for a liver-gall bladder thrush but one thing's bothering me...friday night and i'm off for a weekend to my mom'...

Sunflower crackers will be banned???

I just so love sunflower garlic flavored crackers....my roommate naman has a container of sunflower crackers in cheese...pero it's been two months na since she last bought it pero until now, di pa nya nauubos.... i don't have a sweet-tooth, really and i haven't tasted even one of their cream-filled crackers...buti na lang, kasi just recently, may possibility yatang i-ban ang mga ito for public consumption...base kasi sa ginawang pagsusuri ng Hongkong Center for Food Safety sa Sunflower blueberry cream sandwich crackers na gawa ng Croley Foods dito sa Pilipinas, may mataas na content ng melamine ang produktong ito... Kaya for health reasons, please refrain from eating sunflower cream-filled crackers muna for now, hangga't hindi na tayo nakasisigurado sa masamang idudulot nito sa ating kalusugan, kung meron man...Sa pagkakaalam ko, as of this writing, isinasagawa na ang pagsusuri ng BFAD para malaman kung ligtas ba ito o hindi...
