Day 3


Seafood Pasta with Lemon Butter Sauce and Broccoli on the side

I woke up early today and prepared a delicious breakfast for me and my dad. Our breakfast [around 9:30] normally becomes heavy brunch because our next meal time would be around 3 or 4 already because of workload, so that`s about 6-7 hours apart, not healthy. But anyhow, my body have already adjusted to that pattern so no biggie.

I`m on my third day as a Pescatarian, and I`m really enjoying this thing that I`m doing. Pescatarian is a kind of diet wherein you can only consume vegetables and carbs and seafood, basically anything with the exception of meat. I`ve done this before and I lasted for about 2 or 3 months? I can`t remember clearly. I`m doing this to shed off the unwanted lbs that I gained over the holidays. This is my go-to when I want to go for a healthy living kind of thing, haha. So yes, I`m already on my third day and I`m totally rocking this diet. I`m so proud of myself for controlling my meat cravings, haha! Short term diets really don`t work for me, or they do but for only a freaking short time, duh.

Soooooooooooo..I will update you soon on my Pescatarian progress. Ciao!

Cleansing The System

Happy New Year! 


I just got back from a lovely vacation at the province, a place where I could chill, something that could make me unwind and get away from the fast paced, hustle and bustle of city life.


I stayed over at my brother & sister's house [their houses are separated by a terrace, haha] after Christmas. I gained a pound or two over the holiday season which is normal since I was bombarded with A LOT OF FOOD, and I am not exaggerating when I say a lot. So, as a part of a new year, new body shenanigan, I`ve decided to not just loose then extra pounds but also cleanse my digestive system [how overrated]. I`m such a hypocrite for doing this but the main point of this diet is to [this is the perfect word] KICK-START MY METABOLISM. 


So, I`m on a not-so-strict diet that requires me to drink 10 glasses of water. The main purpose is to cleanse my system of impurities and whatnot. My first day was mainly composed of fruits while my second required all veggies. And of course, I cheated twice [shame on me], and I could care less because I still feel lighter which is a good sign and indication that my body is indeed adjusting and cleansing. I should probably thank the main culprit, H20. I`ve chugged down at least 6 glasses of water which I don`t normally drink, plus the water contents of the fruits and veggies that I consumed. This is crazy but effective. As of now, I have no plans of checking my weight, I don`t want to be all oc bout it cause I do regularly check it. But this time, I would resist the temptation of checking my weight.


It just sucks that I have to pee all the time.
