We just renewed our car insurance. And I am so glad that I went looking for car insurance quotes online a few weeks before it expires. I was able to find a cheaper rate than what my insurance for 4 years had to offer.

So shop around before your insurance expires. You could just find a perfect deal that could help you save $$$.

Ms Personal Trainer

Last week, I had a meeting with a personal trainer at the gym that I recently join. She gave me a quick assessment as to where I am and what my goal is. And thanks to her, I realize that I should be pushing myself to work harder because my body can handle it.

One thing that really bothered me is that she said I may not be eating properly. My diet doesn't sound right, she said. She suggested that I should consider taking multivitamins. She said that I should consider the extra benefits I will get due to specialized ingredients added to the mix.

Unfortunately, for me to get her to coach me twice or three times a week costs a lot! I just couldn't afford it right now. So I told my work out buddy that we should motivate each other!

Preparing for the holiday season

Christmas is just around the corner. I had a couple of Christmas party invitations already. And knowing my friends, there will be tons of foods.

To date, I had already lost 16 pounds. And my target is to lose 15 more pounds and maintain it there. It's a slow process, but with my newly formulated work out habits and diet, I am slowly getting there. Hope this Holiday season will not ruin my diet and workout plans. I don't want to resort to browsing the weightlossdietpills.com site. ",)

HGH

Do HGH spray really works? It claims to give you the youth and vitality that you have missed out. But is this really true?

There are pros and cons to this, and I say, we can only be certain if we do our own little research, talk to doctors, and talk to people who had used it.

For one thing, there is this so-called herbal supplements that do not inject your body with artificial HGH. Instead, they say that they use ingredients that would actually stimulate the body’s pituitary gland to produce more HGH on its own!

On the other hand, when you use a spray, most of it will get lost somewhere between the mouth and the bottle.

On Illnesses

Depression, bi-polar, anxiety and panic disorders. Nobody wants to be diagnose with any one of those.

Dual diagnosis is when two disorders or illnesses occur in the same person, simultaneously or sequentially, they are called co-morbid. Co-morbidity also implies interactions between the illnesses that affect the course and prognosis of both.
If you know of anyone with the above illness, maybe it's time for you to check out MalibuHorizon.com. Their highly trained professional staff treats patients medically, psychosocially, pharmaceutically as well as with individualized therapies.

Winter is here and I suddenly missed the morning walk along the beach and sunny weather back home!

Wordless Wednesday | Watery Wednesday | Outdoor Wednesday


Winter is here!

I was stuck at home this whole week due to snow and deep freeze... I just dropped the kids off at their bus stop and came straight home.

Sun is finally out today and it stopped snowing. But we are still expecting more snow next week...

Cyber Monday

Cyber Monday is almost here. My sister-in-law in New York wanted me to browse through the site and see what she can get for my kids for Christmas.

For those of you who doesn't know what that is, it is just the biggest Thanksgiving sale in the U.S. It is the perfect time to do some Christmas shopping. You can really get a good deal on a huge selection of cameras, game consoles, netbooks, laptops, cellphones... and a whole lot more.

Christmas List

What's on your Christmas list this year? I think it's high time I get myself a pair of women's rain boots and fashionable snow boots! I think I am the only one among my friends who doesn't own a single boots.

Among other things, I also wanted a new couch and entertainment center for my basement. It's about 60% done and I can't wait for it to be finished. Hopefully they will be done by the end of this month.

Android Smart Phone

My husband wanted to buy the HTC desire 2.2 Android Smart phone for my son.

The HTC Desire Z™ with Android comes with a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, HSPA connectivity and Bluetooth capabilities, connect to quick Internet browsing. HTC Desire Z™ could be the fastest Smartphone yet! Take a break to view videos on YouTube or movies.

Well, these features are not for my son! Otherwise, he will not study anymore.

Hello Blog Friends!

I am so sorry if I were not able to visit your blog lately... I have been very, very busy. And actually am too overwhelmed with my schedule and tasks on hand.

From taking an online course to a classroom course... my part time work... house chores and kids and home works... and overseeing our basement project... making myself go to the gym regularly... I am just way too overload.

If you did stop by, please do leave me a message so I can return the visit. Hope to hear from someone soon...

Flowers or Chocolates or Expensive GIfts?

I always prefers to receive flowers rather than chocolates or expensive gifts. Flowers just bring romance into the air and give ambiance to the room. I know they don't last very long, but still, fresh flowers would really make me happy!

Sometimes, I am tempted to set up ordering cheap flowers that will be delivered to our house once a month. So that I am guaranteed to have one... am I crazy?

Soffe.com

I have a hard time looking for running shorts that fits me well. It's not that I run or jog, but they are just comfortable to wear around the house.

Now, thanks to my friend, I discovered Soffe.com. They just have the perfect style of tops and bottoms that I wanted. I just got my first package today and I am really happy with my choices. Prices are not bad either. And the quality is superb.

Working out despite the cold weather

As I mentioned in previous past posts, I am making progress. And my friends are starting to notice that I am losing weight with just regular exercise at the gym and diet! Despite the cold weather, I am making myself go to the gym.

A friend previously recommended hoodia gordonii, but I had said "no" then, and I will say "no" again today.

Get on the right track

Yes, I am on the right track! Proper and regular exercise, with diet and less carbs intake, I am on the right track with my weight. Doctor's order is to lose weight and given the choice of taking medication vs. exercise and dieting. I choose exercise and dieting.

There's no need for me to search for the best diet pills out there. Because my plan is working, slowly, but I am getting there.

My weight loss plan

When I was first informed of my doctor that I will need to lose some weight, a friend of mine recommended Lipofuze. He said that it's the best fat burner and that he had lost quite a deal of weight since he started.

Well, I decided to try the gym first. Yesterday, I met a few friends whom I haven't seen in 2 months, and they all said that I've lost quite a lot already. And this motivated me all the more to continue my work out at the gym. Continuous exercise and diet is my weight loss plan for now.
