Fitness Gourmet: Getting back in shape!

When I learned I was pregnant, one of the first things that came into mind was the weight gain.  I gained so much weight when I had Kailee that I haven't had the chance to lose all of them yet.  Realistically speaking, I don't think I would ever get back to my pre-pregnancy weight, and I am very much happy with how I am.  It's just that I realize that my weight is affecting my lower back.  I remember reading somewhere that every pound we lose helps ease tension on our knees.



Two years ago, I joined the #MakeItFit program of #FitnessGourmetPH.  I lost weight.  So when they offered me another chance - I immediately said YES!  But there was a catch, I was breastfeeding.  But when Shobe turned one - well, I took the offer and jumped at the opportunity to lose weight, any weight.  I know for a fact that Fitness Gourmet serves good calorie counted food.  I've tried it before and I really enjoyed the journey.

Here are just some of the meals that they served:
















Every week, I would look forward to the meals that will be delivered.  I would always look at their Instagram account to check out what's in store for the next week.  It was with this journey that I realized that I am partial to tomato based meals.  Hahaha!  I can't believe that it took me years to discover that.  Hahaha!  I have this favorite dessert - the Ube Espasol.  I swear, it looked really odd - but when I tasted it - it was glorious!  I judged it, and I regret judging it.  It was really wonderful, I swear!



Everything looks good diba?  They taste good too!  I swear, there was no one meal that was served that I did not like.  Everything was great!  I'm beyond impressed and would recommend you guys to try FITNESS GOURMET PH out!  If you want to jumpstart your weight loss journey without having to go to the gym yet - then I suggest you contact them soon to try out their method.  I swear to you, it really works!

My four week journey was not easy.  But I needed to do it.  And I am happy to say that I have lost 8lbs!  I know it's 5lbs short of my previous try, but I will take it anytime.  I can't imagine losing that same weight without the help of #FitnessGourmetPH.  It's really really effective.  I am a living testament to that.

I want to say THANK YOU to #FitnessGourmetPH for jumpstarting my 'getting back into shape' journey.  Thank you for this wonderful opportunity.

ANSON SUPERMARKET - Grocery delivery!!

Sharing is caring, so we can't keep it a secret any longer.  THIS is where we get out groceries!  Well, Anson Supermarket has been where we have been purchasing all of our kids' diapers!  From Kailee to Connor to Shobe!  Yes, yes, yes! A week into the lockdown, it just occurred to us that we can get our groceries from them - but then we thought, we didn't want to force them to do it - after all it's a different time now.  But when we asked and they said yes, it was like we won the lottery.  We sent out our list - a very VERY SPECIFIC list and voila after a day or two (we weren't in a rush) they told us to schedule a pick up.  Please remember that I am sharing this with you guys because I believe so much in the saying 'sharing is caring'.  Please be mindful of your language and respect those who will call or message you about your orders.  Also note that some items might NOT be available - so manage your expectations.   They're a ...

#CookingQuest: Winter Melon Soup ala Didi #EnhancedCommunity

One of the things that gets ooohs and aaaahs in a chinese restaurant is the #WinterMelonSoup.   You may ask why?  Well because with this soup, restaurants use the winter melon itself as a huge bowl to serve the soup!  It's a sight to see as you'll be amazed how they were able to pull it off.  You'll see the whole winter melon, and then suddenly they're take out the top part and when you peek in, the soup is inside together with meat bits and other veggies!  My mom has tried it at home, and I remember her being nervous that the winter melon doesn't break apart, kunde sira ang presentation! So during this #EnhancedCommunityQuarantine, I chanced upon Theo's Farm that they have winter melon, so I ordered.  When I saw it - I knew I wouldn't be able to pull off the carving and serving the winter melon.  It actually made the preparation easier.  I had to ask my mom, and she told me to steam the winter melon to soften it.  Honestly, I don't t...

Learning Mandarin, what method is best?

I studied in a sort of Chinese school for 13 years. So that "sort of' means, I SHOULD know how to speak basic Mandarin right? NOT QUITE!! I studied in a Chinese school where we only get less than an hour of Chinese class daily.  When you think about it, well - one hour a day, should be okay - but the problem is, at that time - it was pure memorization.  The books that we used, were those traditional books that I honestly have no idea what is written in them.  I see Chinese characters and they're just that - Chinese characters without meaning, nothing.  It was not practical if you ask me.  The words we were taught were not used in everyday conversation It was only during my 3rd or 4th year of high school that I realized how important knowing how to speak Chinese was.  It was during a trip to the Chinese border from Hong Kong that while I was going around the mall, I was having a hard time communicating with people who looked like me.  I wa...
