High Cholesterol Levels

Posted in food, health, home on January 11th, 2010 by admin – Be the first to comment

Do you know that one out of five adults suffer from high cholesterol. What’s even more disturbing is the number of young people being diagnosed of hypertensive, diabetes and heart diseas because of high cholesterol levels in their bodies. This is why I’m reading about cholesterol supplements for me and my husband. We’ve always been living on a high fat diet and no time to exercise regularly. Now that we’re trying to live a healthy lifestyle, why not go all and get a supplement as well. I know I need to research more thoroughly about this. I’m very serious in keeping our cholesterols in check and our bodies in top shape.

Do you know how good fish oil is for your health? Fish oil omega 3 fatty acids are considered ‘essential’ fatty acids (EFAs) in such a way that they are necessary to human health yet cannot be produced by the body.

Pigging Out

Just ordered a huge cake and a bucket of fried chicken for my daughter’s birthday. My mom arrived this morning to cook some of her specialty dishes so I have no doubt that I’ll be needing a weight loss pill by the end of the month. We’ve been eating like a horse for the past couple of weeks and have put aside our diet plans because it’s our daughter’s birthday month. Of course, we can always stay on a diet but why ruin a perfectly planned month when you can just enjoy the celebration. We can always worry about the extra weight next month.

I will resume my diet though because I wouldn’t want to be too heavy when December comes. The parties alone can make me gain four to six pounds so I need to have a very good plan if I want to stay in shape by January.

Fun Coffee Designs

With all the junk and sweets that I’ve been eating lately, it will be no surprise when I start shopping for Solo Slim online. But I will restrain myself. Instead of feasting on mango bravo/chocolate turtle pie/choco walnut cake/triple choco mousse(see, the names alone will make you want to eat), I’ll hit the treadmill OR better yet (exercise is always my last resort), I’ll just drink coffee and nothing else.

Okay so I may not be proposing the healthiest way to eat here so please ignore me. Do enjoy these beautifully designed coffee though. Reminds me so much of Coffee Prince days.
