You are beautiful

DGH — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 22:15:00 +0000

Being fat or bulgy doesn’t mean you’re ugly. It’s all the bad media campaign plus society dictating and brainwashing women that being fat is no good.

How many women have died or suffered from being anorexic? How many models have died because they were told they have to be thin as a reed to be models?

I’ve been following a blog by a twins who’s advocacy is to tell big or plus size women that size doesn’t matter. It’s not how much they weigh that matters; it’s their personality and how they see themselves that count.

Whether you’re wearing a plus size dress or size 0, be proud of who you are. Don’t mind what other people think about. As long as you’re healthy, then that’s alright. You are beautiful!

Losing weight

If you’re struggling with losing weight for a long time, maybe you’re not doing the right thing. Don’t you think it’s time to junk your current diet program and try different approach? There’s Austin Wellness Clinic that offers medically supervised weight loss and wellness programs personalized for each needs of clients. You can try their HCG diet Austin, it might work for you. HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) is commonly used for fertility but is also said to be good and effective aid in losing weight. If you’re fond of eating foods rich in calories, prepare to give up this kind of diet though because it will play a major role in your weight loss. I think it’s worth it if you really, really want to get those fats away. No pain, no gain. You have to give in order to get back something in return.

Essential skin care products

With the plethora of skin care products in the market today, one can easily get confused which ones to get. To make it simple, start with the basics.

- Clean your skin. Your skin needs to be regularly cleansed to remove bacteria, dirt, make-up and dead skin cells. Don’t ever go to bed with make-up on, it will clog your pores. You can use exfoliant or masks to keep your face clean.

- Don’t leave without putting on a sunscreen! It’s a must, especially when the sun is out shining like a mad man. If you think it’s okay not to use sunscreen on winter, you’re wrong. Even if the air feels cool, your skin is needs protection from the sunlight reflected on the snow.

- Don’t forget to moisturize your skin to keep it smooth and soft.

There you go! Three essential skin care products that you must have to keep your skin in perfect condition.

Protection against the sun

DGH — Sun, 29 May 2011 08:15:57 +0000

We had a picnic two days ago with the kids and a friend. The sun was scorching hot, to the point that my little daughter couldn’t resist waddling in the lake without her clothes. Yay! I know we should have used sunblock especially for the kids, but we weren’t ready. I didn’t expect it would be that hot. Even my 1 year old son had marks of the sun on his legs.

I have to keep in mind to buy sunblock when we go shopping and also acne creams among other skincare essentials. It’s really important to take care of one’s skin to avoid sunburn, cancer or blemishes. But even if you put on sunblock with high SPF, it is still best to minimize your exposure to sun just to be safe.

more on diet pills

DGH — Mon, 21 Feb 2011 04:14:54 +0000

I’ll share with you what more I’ve found about this subject. What I mean is in connection to the previous post, yeah still on diet pills. Researching on the subject, I’ve come across ephedrine diet pills. Ephedra comes from the plant Ephedra Sinica, and has been used for thousands of years as an herbal medication for traditional Chinese use. There are 32 known species of Ephedra, and some of them are banned. That’s why it’s important to know the facts. I may write more about this on a future post.

criteria in choosing for the best diet pills

DGH — Mon, 21 Feb 2011 03:58:18 +0000

One important matter for a woman is her body, how she looks. And I’m not exempted in this. When I’m online it can’t be avoided that I come across websites which provide information on weight loss. Of course I’m also interested to know the real facts on healthy weight loss, not just what the diet pill manufacturers or food supplement promoters say. With this, I’ve discovered many good points and educational facts about weight loss.

You know, there are the bad side and negative effects of it that most of the above companies won’t tell you. Best over the counter diet pills are easier to find if we research for facts discovered by science, and validated by medical experts. The ones we should consider are those which promote real weight loss results, and some of the important criteria are: Ingredients, Side Effects & Safety, long term results, customer reviews, and its overall value.

workout results

DGH — Sat, 19 Feb 2011 17:26:53 +0000

I have a cousin M who has married an incorporator of a prestigious gym; in fact they met here in a particular body-building session. When I visited one time my auntie’s house, I saw some containers which I later learned were supplements taken by M for her workout.

I’m not sure though if she’s also taking jack3d, as I’ve heard this is one popular and powerful pre- workout supplement. So these gym enthusiasts, they have pre- and post-workout nutrition for their body-building or muscle-building. Well, the result of their painstaking effort in maintaining whatever regimen they have shows in the slim and well-proportioned, yet strong, bodies they have. You should see my cousin! At 40+ years old with 4 kids, she doesn’t look a bit like a mom. She can even be mistaken as her kids’ older sister.

skin problems

DGH — Sat, 18 Dec 2010 19:22:15 +0000

Having skin problems is difficult to deal with especially if it becomes uncomfortable, like when it is itchy and painful. This winter season, I am suffering from skin rashes on my legs again. I always get it whenever the temperature goes down. I have been treating it with petroleum jelly but it still didn’t get better.

For others, they might be bugged with acne. Acne, though might not be as itchy as my rashes, can be annoying too. If you get it in the face, it looks bad, and if its in the body, it might be painful when it rubs in your clothes. I don’t know if body acne wash will do wonders in clearing the acne. Oh well, whatever skin problems you have, let’s hope that we’ll find the right product that will erase all our troubles! hehe

research on what to take

DGH — Sun, 28 Nov 2010 10:19:14 +0000

When I was still on vacation in the Philippines, I wanted to eat all the food I missed while having stayed away from our home country. The result: I got a problem with belly fat. Many of my friends have already commented of my obvious gained-weight. Ever since then I have been reading diet pill reviews to learn more about what is fit and right for me, to be back to my former body build, though it may not be a hundred percent of it. It is prudent to educate ourselves on medicines or anything we take into our bodies to avoid any harmful side effects. We want to be slim and fit? Research about what to take or what to do.

stay beautiful

DGH — Sun, 28 Nov 2010 10:16:08 +0000

I always stay at home with my two children, one the three year old cutie C and the other, and ten-month-old “pogie” baby boy A., working in the internet in-between watching them and my daily home chores. With no office work to compel to be out from home, and to wear make-up or whatever to put on my face, I seldom fuss over my looks, but I have to keep up also, even for my own self-respect: I should remain beautiful, even for myself and my beloved hubby, right? So I still go over sites for my personal and face care (including the best acne face wash in case it will be needed). But my favorite sites to visit are fashion blogs.
