SUMMER OUTFITS FOR PREGNANT WOMEN

I do not know what it is about being pregnant that heightens your senses and also increases your body temperature (and sex drive as well).  With that, preggers are bound to get more sweaty this summer. And there’s no better way to cool down than to hit the beach. If you’re pregnant and are hesitant about going to the beach because of your baby bump, not to worry. Here are some great swim suits to add to your collection of maternity clothes.

Nostalgic over Coffee

image taken from latimesblogs.latimes.com

This morning I made myself a cup of coffee while my boys are still asleep. I’m a morning person and so at night, the usual scene for us is that minutes after hitting the sack, no matter what the father and son are up to, I never fail to doze off. They in turn are late sleeper. It works for me since I get to have some me time in the morning, aside from preparing their breakfast and the little boy’s vitamins and all.

Earlier while having my coffee, I realized how much little interaction I have with my friends now. I miss hanging out with my friends till the wee hours of the morning. I miss having girl talk, how we sometimes get so involved in our discussion be it something as mundane as our quest for the most effective fat burner product or the something as serious as matters of the heart.

Oh well, hope I could touch base with some of my friends in the coming days. :)

Stop Eating Woman!

image taken from loveliverun.blogspot.com

My son is turning 4 come July and I still haven’t managed to go back to my pre-pregnancy weight! Sigh. I could only blame myself for this. Hopefully I get to go back in shape before my son turns 4 and hopefully, after I do, I wont get preggers for at least another year or two.

Currently, I’m scouring the web for diets that work fast for women and other things to motivate me into stopping myself from going to the ref every so often. Oh well, I’ll try my best to go out tomorrow and walk around our neighborhood to burn off a few calories, that should be a start.

Sunsilk Hair Repair Kit

 

Looking back now, I think I never got the chance to blog and thank Sunsilk about the Hair repair kit that they sent me months ago. I merely sent a text message, following the instructions in the commercial that they have. It came in a bit late and I had to call their hotline to inquire if my message was received, although I do have an automated text reply from them. The operator was friendly and told me that she will follow up. Days later I got a box in the mail containing this glitzy items that are from Sunsilk.

I like the fact that Sunsilk, as well as other shampoo manufacturers are exploring on diversifying their product line. There’s hair lengthening, volumizing for better body, straight and smooth for frizzy hair, and the list just goes on. I won’t be surprised if they will later on venture into coming up with additional hair loss products. For now I think, shampoo manufacturers only have the hair fall control, which I think will eventually give way to a better line up.

Anyway, all I want to say is Thank you Sunsilk. :) The product did deliver. ;)

On skin products

I did look at the old pictures that I have, the ones that are from back 5 to 8 years ago and boy were they different from the face I see now in the mirror. I looked stressed and really tired. Although on the pictures that I have recently, my skin is at its fairest. On the other hand, on a closer inspection, there seems to be a lot of blemishes and sun spots. Fortunately, I don’t see any fine lines and I would like to keep it that way. Now that I’m in my line of 3, I vow to keep the following resolution:

  • religiously have facials or a diamond peel twice a month
  • find out the best anti wrinkle creams and see which on the list is most affordable for me.
  • drink more water
  • eat more fruits and vegetables.
  • exercise

Such a tall order. I certainly hope I get to keep all.

The Big Three – 0!

I just turned 30, a few days ago. Somehow, I don’t feel like 30. As they say, age is just a number. On the other hand, i came across an id picture of mine way back 10 years ago, and boy do I look so much younger then! It’s a wake up call! Here are some of my resolution for this new year of my life:

  • Have facials 2x a month, which was an old routine.
  • Hair spa 2x a month as well.
  • Research further on what’s a good anti aging product.
  • Exercise.
  • Eat healthy.
  • Laugh more.

I have another one that I’ll keep to myself in the mean time. Hopefully I get to follow through all those things I’ve outlined.

Diet Failed…yet again

I lost weight already which is good and I know that because I felt my jeans loosen up, I could fit into some of my pre-pregnancy clothes once more. But then again, ever since the husband went back, the weight started coming back just as well. Which reminds me that I have to start working out again and resume my intake of Orlistat. While I am initially satisfied with how the Alli brand is working on me, I am actually considering going for a different brand name next time. I’m actually thinking if I’d go for Xenical or Lesofat next time. It’s just darn hard to look for the fastest working weight loss pills, especially when there’s just so many brands out there.

Any suggestions?

Rethinking my Career

Been back in the call center scene for almost three months now and I am seriously thinking of giving it just one more year. I need to have a different career. First and foremost, I am not getting any younger and taking the night shift is not doing my health any good. Second, my son is growing up up and I want to have a job/career that lets me spend as much time as I can with him. On the other hand, God is telling me to wait it out. I need to be able to graduate from this phase so I can receive my sprititual blessing and promotion.

Here are my options so far, when I finally get to finish my call center stint:

  • pursue my sales career
  • set up a small food business
  • set up a bakery

I certainly hope I get to accomplish one of those, especially the second and third line item, since I’ve always been passionate about food. :) I think my current weight (although I already lost weight) attests to that. :) Oh and speaking of weight I’ll be looking for articles about fast weight loss tips and next time hopefully I can blog about it.
