The weather is getting colder than usual here in the Philippines. Cold weather equals bed weather, and sleeping in a bit is the most enjoyable thing to do. Because of this, I did all my workouts with Coach Joel in the afternoon. My body was up for it but I still prefer the quiet energy [...]
Today is December 31, 2020 and it’s MY BIRTHDAAAAAYY! HOORAY! *confetti* *fireworks* Before anything else, I’d like to thank everyone who clicked the tiny follow button on my humble blog. I’ve only ever dreamed of getting a hundred follows by the year ends but I can’t believe that there are now more than 200 of [...]
Ho Ho Ho! Happy Healthmas! Christmas is just around the corner. One of the greatest gifts I have given myself this year is the gift of a healthier me. I can't believe how far I've come since I started last April. From 121 kilos, I've worked hard to shed extra weight and now I'm 94 [...]
The gym is all decked up with Christmas decor! Coach mixed the routine up this week again so my body won’t quickly adapt to the same workouts. It was fun learning new things though it takes a little getting used to. Still, I kept my head in the game and just stuck with it. Discipline [...]

HOORAY! #Consistency Last weekend I cheated with some Dark Chocolate Ensaymada (a Filipino pastry). I made up for it by catching up on cardio the next day until my Garmin watch tells me [...]
I thought I knew you I really do I bet my life on your words I followed you We merrily went to the greenhouse We watched the lilies grow We fixed what's down and broken We had good laughs and fun You suddenly went silent You went down to mend a wire You beckoned me [...]
"Motivation Is What Gets You Started, Habit Keeps You Going" Jim Rohn Showed my friends this picture the other day. One of them asked me a really good question. “I’m curious, what motivates you (to lose weight)? Because what you’re doing is difficult to commit to.” He asked. It took me a while to reply. [...]
I am a novice baker. With the arrival of my oven five weeks ago, I’ve embarked on a wonderful baking journey. Baking brings me joy. I think it’s the whole process, from preparing the ingredients and trays, mixing the ingredients, putting them in the oven, and then tasting and sharing what I’ve baked that gives [...]
