I am still in the mood for another post, so here we go again. Regarding my last post, I suddenly remember that beside trying to hold back or postpone the aging process, people also want to have a healthy skin. Healthy as in being as clean and free from acne is considered one of the most important.

I know that having been a teenager myself, how young people feel self conscious whenever they got this big huge acne right in the tip of their nose, while they are going on a date that same day. Hey, even I would feel self conscious if I have a big, huge acne right in the tip of my nose right now while I have to go to the office in several hours. Read the rest of this entry »

I know that we are not supposed to judge a book by its cover, just like we are not supposed to judge people by their looks alone. Although looks can be deceiving, people still have the tendencies to favor people who are considered good looking, or should I say presentable, by normal standards.

I vaguely understand that it is especially important for women, but lately men are starting to become as attentive regarding how they look. Whether it is because of the influence of today’s media, or it is because of a person’s need to be acknowledged, I am not in a position to say so. Read the rest of this entry »

It has been a while since the last time I got sick. I assume it is because I always try to eat and rest properly, workout regularly and take supplements regularly. I don’t really like being sick because it makes me unable to do my daily activities as well as usual. Well, that being the case, I don’t think that no one wants to get sick either.

I have been experiencing mild symptoms of a cold lately. Sore and itchy throat, runny nose, a slight rise in body temperature and feeling a bit weak. It has been a while indeed, and judging from the usual 3 days incubation rule, it must be because I didn’t get enough rest after the outing I had with the people in my work department.

My sister and I got into a little discussion this afternoon, when we stopped by a certain mall to get something cold to drink and something to eat. We both like to work out and we usually are quite picky over what we eat most of the time. So eating junk food and drinking sodas or iced lattes with whipped cream is usually last on our list.

We got into this little conversation about how we must do an extra exercise routine just to burn off those calories. Anyway she said to me that she read or heard somewhere about how people tend to wear the very best they can afford to make them look good but they didn’t care much about what they eat, even eating junk food which actually don’t do any good to them.

Well, eating and dressing up is two very different experiences. They are also very personal, so I guess different people have different preferences also. Some people care more about how they look, some people care more about how they feel. Read the rest of this entry »

It has always been the hardest for me to start rather than to maintain. Once I got into something on a routine schedule, it is easier to find the motivation to continue doing it. Although I tend to lose my motivation if I stopped doing it for an extended period of time, like a week or two for example.

So I find it really hard to find the motivation to start working out regularly again, because I’ve stopped doing it for more than two weeks. It was more like two months actually. I was starting to get lazy and I lack the stamina that comes from working out regularly, not to mention my waistline is increasing again slightly.

To make things worse, I hardly control my daily calories intake. I ate almost everything that I wanted which is, needless to say, something that I won’t do when routine exercise is still part of my weekly, if not daily schedule. I really find it hard to return to my regular exercise routine by then; that is until help came from an unexpected source. My wife. Read the rest of this entry »
