Today, in this wonderful food/lifestyle blog, the author posted her breakfast meals, suitable for the Cohen Lifestyle.

Got me thinking about signing up for Cohen. It’ll cost a lot of money, but it might very well be worth it. I had read about this system in the papers maybe a month ago. It seemed interesting, more so because it boasts about a well-researched and tested system that analyzes a person’s blood make up to come up with meal plan suggestions. Because of this, the program is tailor-made for each individual. It is not to be shared, and there’s no mass-produced meals to be had. Each person will be given his/her daily requirements and restrictions.

For more info, check out their website.

I have at least three married friends trying to get pregnant this year, one is already a month or so into her first pregnancy. Soon, I’d have friends with hopefully bigger bellies than mine. Girlfriends looking pretty and sexy even in maternity clothing. My preggy friend, plus two others still trying are all diagnosed with PCOS, just like me. I think being on this new brand of lifestyle, might be my ticket to breaking free from PCOS. Though I’m not trying to conceive now, it might get me a step closer to that, eventually.

Have you heard of this? Any feedback you care to share?

Can I survive a Juju Cleanse?

The other site is Ensogo for this Slimming Package at Bioessence Slimzone:

Yes, both have something to do with losing weight, although the first one is really about cleansing, and weight loss is just one of its effects. I am tempted to get both, but don’t know if I really want to pay for it!

But they complement each other don’t they? Hmm.. I’ve 30 hours to think about the Slimzone promo…

What do you think?

No, I haven’t weighed myself again. I don’t need a scale to tell me what I already know.

Truth be told, I am so big it is so hard to move now. The littlest things tire me out. Ugh. Okay. I exaggerate, but I’m sure you can imagine what I mean.

I don’t think there’s ever been a time in my life that I was ashamed of how I looked. I have always been fat, but I’ve always always felt beautiful. (I wish the old Peyups.com was still around, I would so link to my one and only published post there right now). But now I look at my photos and I cringe.

Don’t get me wrong – this is not me putting myself down. This isn’t about low self-esteem because I have so much confidence in myself. I just really hate the way I look right now. It doesn’t help that my face has a dark aura lately. Double ugh.

But I won’t make another pledge or another promise. I’m so tired of doing that and then failing.

Boyfriend! Bring that Wii downstairs and set it up in the living room. Imma dance this fat away! Hahahaha! I don’t care how looooooong it takes, but someday these curves will squeeze into lingerie corset, as long as they have plus size I mean seriously, will I ever graduate from plus size? I don’t think so. But I can graduate from being morbidly obese. And I will, so help me God!

Confession: Apart from seeing very recent photos and not liking how I looked, this post is most likely inspired by the photos of all the beautiful brides and their weddings that I’ve been browsing through. It’s so frustrating that they’re all so skinny and they’re weddings are so beautiful and grand and happy and sweet. All so fairy tale like. Mine’s going to be just as happy and beautiful in our own little way. Brr. Okay. Enough. Rant over.

We’ll be back soon with regular programming.

I just drank a bottle of Minute Maid Pulpy. They say it’s got ‘no preservatives added’. Aw, c’mon…It’s bottled juice. Is that even possible? So I thought maybe… I’ll give it a try. It tasted almost like freshly squeezed orange juice with real bits of fruit swirling around the bottle. Not too sweet, and even a tinge of tangy that characterizes citrus fruits.

I didn’t believe it the first time I heard it’s got no preservatives added.  So I read the ingredients (even the fine print) and everything checked out! It really has NO PRESERVATIVES ADDED!  That means it doesn’t have ingredients that may turn out to be allergens, or worse…carcinogens!  Whew! Now that’s healthy goodness that tastes so good, I… feel no guilt downing a big bottle of Minute Maid all by myself No need to worry about harmful traces being left in your body either.

So okay, it’s got no preservatives added. That’s really good, right?  Not just because it doesn’t have those icky, harmful ingredients, but it also means… that you get all the nutrients from the fruit. Because it’s pulpy, you also get the fiber from orange that aids digestion, and is a friend for anyone who desperately needs to lose weight like myself!

So far anyone who still has a hard time believing that Minute Maid has got no preservatives added – meaning it’s THAT natural, it’s almost like it’s plucked straight from the tree, it’s just as Mother Nature wanted your orange juice to be, it’s got nothing but the good stuff yes, none of those potentially toxic stuff that can harm your brain, kidneys, heart; cause tumors aargh- the list of preservatives’ bad effects just go on!!! Anyway, just to prove a point on just how good Minute Maid Pulpy is ’cause it’s got NO PRESERVATIVES ADDED, I’m gonna show you just how much I love my Minute Maid Pulpy Orange – I took photos of my MM vendo experience from work! Haha Yes! First, I was excited about the new kind of vendo we have at work and wanted to give it a try, butI was more thrilled seeing that it houses my favorite juice drink!

Before this yummy drink pictured above arrived at my station, it was in this neat vendo that also carried other Coca-Cola products (including my favorite beverage, Coke!):

Though I was tempted to grab a 500-mL bottle of Coke, or opt for the 5-peso cheaper can below this rack, I stuck to my guns and hit C7 on the panel. I promised myself I’d make the little adjustments necessary to get to a healthier me, and opting for this drink isn’t a sacrifice at all!

Here’s my drink on board the drink elevator:

And finally, the small door opens with my small bottle of cold pulpy goodness ready to be picked up.

Now, there’s no reason not to replace my daily soda intake with the healthy goodness of natural juice.

Feels good to know about the real pulpy deal, right? C’mon show me a smile on the comment box, and you might win yourself a Really Pulpy Deal! (That’s a chance to win a Minute Maid gift pack simply by commenting. Sweet! C’mon you just might be picked as the lucky ‘commentor’!)

Love,

So I eat when I feel like eating. And I write when I have the urge to write.

I only wish that I had more writing inspirations than I have food inspirations. Sometimes when I feel so good eating, I’d like to believe that the advertised Bangkok and Ballerina pills don’t have the alleged side effects of diet pills that scare me. Wouldn’t losing weight be so much easier then? Oh well.

I am thankful that there are posts to write. Thankful for the experiences that I can write about. I cannot be more thankful that I have the time and the resources to sit here and type these words. That I had the life and upbringing that allowed me to know about these things and more.

I am thankful for the many opportunities that come my way. For the chance to grow and be better. For the chance to start fresh.

Yes, I may have sounded like I was complaining about my big appetite, but I am thankful that there was all that food to eat Reading alli reviews is not a sign that I’m ungrateful for all that food, but actually a sign that I’m interested in taking care of myself all the more by losing weight the safest way possible.

And finally, I am so thankful for the many reasons I have to be thankful, and I will always be so. For the biggest gift we’ll all be getting this Christmas, thank you in advance Lord! We pray for a safe delivery, as we await the arrival of my nephew (have you seen his 4D pictures?)

Ooooohhh I almost forgot. Gee has been pointing out the HyperPromote pop up ads that go with the blog. Can someone out there help me identify where it’s coming from so I can take the code out of my blog? Please? Thank you!

Hay.

But other than that, things are still going well. Alfred’s been meeting up with me at Cubao every afternoon where we have lunch or afternoon snack together before heading home.

Oh, and my brother got married yesterday! It was really, er, spontaneous and they surprised everyone with their civil wedding. We had a fun dinner last night to celebrate just with family and a few close friends. We took some photos, but I haven’t checked them yet so I’m sure there’s going to be another post about this sometime soon

How’s your week going? Mine is about to end, yay!
