Too Sure

Posted in health on February 20th, 2010 by admin – Be the first to comment

We have so many life insurance leads
that I don’t know what to do with them anymore. I only mentioned in passing that I
want to upgrade my current package and all of a sudden, my mailbox is filled with
different offers from various companies. I love how convenient technology is but sometimes, I’d rather talk to someone in person and discuss my needs. Perhaps I should give our old agent a call and ask if I can upgrade without purchasing a new plan.

Pre-Natal Care

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

Just because your friend thinks she’s taking best prenatal vitamin doesn’t mean it could be good for you too. Not all bodies are created equal and some women don’t need as much supplements. Myself is an example as I only drink one vitamin for the whole term. I know of a friend who has to drink 4 kinds just to keep herself and the baby healthy. It’s not because I’m healthier than she is, that’s just how our bodies were built. And just like what my OB tells me, plenty of nutrients included in the vitamins can be found on food and drinks as well.

Feeling Good

Posted in health on February 10th, 2010 by admin – Be the first to comment

I can’t talk enough on how good I feel about myself right now. Ever since the 2nd trimester began, I’m more active and alert. Not that hungry all the time as well and I can even exercise for 5-10 minutes every morning. And I know I mentioned too many times how I don’t need any best wrinkle treatments because of my lovely skin. Working isn’t as hard now. I can finish all my deliverables in time and still have energy to spend time with my daughter or watch my favorite TV shows. I need to take advantage of this stage because I’m almost positive that things are gonna be hard when I reach 3rd trimester. It’s gonna be the start of sleepless nights and aching joints all over again!

Say No to Dieting

Reading fat burner reviews used to be my past time when I noticed that I was gaining weight no matter how much I diet. It turned out I was pregnant and to my utmost happiness, learned that I don’t have to diet at all! On my first trimester, I are all kinds of food that I woudln’t normally eat because I’m afraid to gain weight. But since it was the only way I could cure my morning / whole day sickness, I indulged myself. And boy was it heaven whenever I eat something so good (or should I say bad) and so rich, regardless if it’s a crispy bacon or moist chocolate cake. Now that I’m on my 2nd trimester, I watch what I eat again but not as paranoid as I used to be. I know my baby deserves to have all the nutrients she needs so even though I eat a lot, I make sure they are healthy for the both of us.

Celebrity Moms – Back in Shape in Weeks

And now that I mentioned the new celebrity moms, let me just post a few photos of them three of four months after giving birth. You’d probably want to read on new diet pills that you don’t know about but this post is not about that. It’s to inspire you to lose that weight through regular exercise and healthy diet. And if you don’t know this yet, breastfeeding can make you lose weight so fast you’d be back in your old body in six to eight months.

And I know 5 weeks is too much for mere mortals like us so let me share this snippet from eatsmartgetsmart.com

When a celebrity gives birth (often by a scheduled, voluntary c-section) many immediately receive a tummy tuck. Once they are home, they bring in their (already assembled and waiting in the wings) team of professionals whose sole duty is to get the celeb back into red carpet shape. Often a publicity deal is already in the works with a magazine selected to cover her miraculous return to the spot light.

This team is made up a personal trainer, a masseuse, yoga instructor, Pilates instructor, nutritionist and personal chef. More often than not, little pills are often taken. (Remember the Rolling Stones song, “Mother’s Little Helper”?) They devote their entire day to this. Every other annoyance is taken care for them. Changing diapers? Please!

Keeping The Pounds Away

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

And speaking of keeping your bodies in shape, let’s talk about fat burner. Some fat burners not only serve as weight loss supplement but an overall health supplement. Although slower than other popular brands, this type of fat burner is much safer because of the stimulant it contains. For faster results such as Fenphedra, you may lose a lot in a short amount of time but your body might not be able to handle the stimulants that comes with the drug. I’ve seen a few people lose weight for two or three weeks and have all the pounds back after a week or so. Choosing a fat burner depends on your goal – do you want to wear that bridesmaid’s dress in a month or want to keep the pounds away by losing them slowly and exercising regularly. At the end of the day, if you want to stay strong and healthy, nothing really beats the old, good exercise and healthy diet.

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.

On Bad Skin

Posted in health, websites on January 10th, 2010 by admin – Be the first to comment

I read from differin reviews online that the cons of this treatment consists of burning, stinging, dry skin, itching, peeling and redness. And the fact that it doesn’t work for everybody makes me even more hesitant to try it if ever I get bad acne. Good thing there are reviews online such as this because it makes it easy for consumers to decide which treatment will be right for them. Armed with the right knowledge, non-biased reviews and more extensive research, finding the right cure for your stubborn acne can be within reach. In fact, this doesn’t apply to skin problems alone but on purchasing drugs, diet plans and treatments in general. Being extra cautious can save you a lot of heartaches and money if you think about it.

Health Online

I never knew I’d search online for arthritis relief but here I am in front of the computer with five browsers open researching exactly that. Still, I’m glad it’s not for me but for my aunt who couldn’t sleep at night anymore due to joint pains. I told her to go see a doctor but she said she wants me to find some information for her first so she’d know what to ask. She has a point because I’ll do the same thing before seeing a physician. It doesn’t hurt to be informed and understand exactly what your diagnosis is all about.

Health Care Abroad

Posted in health on January 5th, 2010 by admin – Be the first to comment

A comprehensive medical travel package lets you get top quality health care anywhere you are. Not only you can have international health care choices but they can even be less expensive than those that can be found in the U.S. To give you an example, Mexico is the top medical travel destination for Americans who are looking for more affordable dental care, surgery, stem cell procedures and other operations that will cost 30%-80% higher in the U.S. I’ve always thought that in order to get excellent medical attention, nothing beats going to America. But looking at the numbers now shows that you can still get incomparable assistance abroad for an even lower price.

This is definitely good news for everyone who seek excellent health care without being indebted to the bank forever.
