Acne and Treatment

I was asked by my 11-year old daughter if she will have acne when she gets older. As early as now she's aware that some of her schoolmates are starting to develop this kind of skin disorder. She wanted me to give her an assurance that I'll know how to deal with it when her time comes. I told her that having acne depends on your eating and sleeping habit and it's also on the genes.

I remember my cousin who used to have acne has been consulting her dermatologists about acne and treatment and she told me that maybe she got it from her father's genetic history. Her father also has the same skin disorder. Anyway there's plenty of treatment available online. Look at what I've browsed here.

:Today's Flowers #16

Click picture to enlarge!

These are nice cute flowers that grows abundantly anywhere but this shot was taken at Calamba, Laguna on our swimming there. Actually it's a school educational tour and because Luisa Ridge resort has a wide area full of flowering shrubs and plants I spent my time rounding up the place and took plenty of pictures. What's cute about this flower is that a different color of flower grows inside the pink flowers! I like the simplicity of this one, small and pretty!

Gained Some Pounds!

For the last 6 months now I’ve gained lots of pounds. It started when I got sick and became conscious that if I don’t eat properly I might develop a more serious sickness other than over fatigue and colds. I eat the same volume of food as I eat on lunchtime making me heavier because we all know that food taken on late hours normally gains us pounds.

Oh well my appetite developed again and it was nice spending dinner nights with hubby so here I am heavier by 10 pounds. I was browsing the net looking for some sites on healthy diet foods when I chanced upon Leptovox diet pill. I learned that it has high quality ingredients and will help in weight loss and developing beautiful skin but I’m still thinking what diet plan I should really go for this time.

Lunch With Jen

Had lunch with Bes JennyL today as an advance birthday celebration. Actually she scheduled shopping today on Greenhills to buy some things for herself. Since I will not make it tomorrow to go to their house in the afternoon to join her family I went with her. This year we didn't planned anything on her birthday, it just came up that we can have a date today! We arranged to meet in Virra Mall where she'll be rounding up tiangge there but when I arrived late she was there in front of me when I alighted from the vehicle making face at me lol!

I showed her the restaurant along with Tender Bobs Steak House and upon passing and rounding up around thrice we decided to eat at Las Paellas where of course Paellas are the house specialty. No we didn't ordered their specialty because Jen was craving for steak something, she wanted ala gourmet style but later content herself to Babyback Ribs while I ordered Porkchop Andaluz. Food are great except for the seasoning (they only served Knorr seasoning, not the usual special sauces and seasoning in a steak house)

Their iced tea were perfect, it has a very fresh taste unlike the usual iced tea served on some restos. For the dessert we had Mango Mambo and I can say it's so refreshingly good. See pictures here grabbed from her blog, Bes was too busy to send it to me so she told me to just grab them!

This is the yummy Buffalo Wings in Don Henricos
photo shot on Bes JennyL's birthday last year

It's one of my favorites in this restaurant, sad that their branch just a few blocks from our office closed down when the Eastwood Chain of Restaurants in Libis boomed. I remember when I was still pregnant with my youngest child I used to eat there at lunch because the meat is so tender, perfectly flavored and has a white sauce that makes it more delicious! When my office friends were busy to accompany me our office messenger would offer to buy for us, he'll just walk a few meters and we'll have buffalo wings for lunch!

Happy Friday and enjoy your weekend with your loved ones;)

Losing Excess Fat

It’s very easy to gain weight but very hard to lose it. Sometimes I observed that if you gain a pound you’ll only lose half of it when you diet. Well the best diet plan should be coupled also with the best discipline. My officemate keep on telling us that one should schedule at least an hour of exercise to keep your adrenalin going and to shed unwanted pounds, it’s one of the best slimming strategy and very good for the body. Next thing is balanced diet meaning you eat the right kind of food.

If you look on the chart of balanced nutrition you’ll see the pyramid that people should eat more on the Glow foods, average on Grow Foods and less on the Go Foods. If all these failed to give you your desired weight maybe you should start looking for best fat burners to help you burn excess fat, restore your energy levels and keep you on your best physique condition.
