Gerd Treatment
Health and Fitness
It's been three months now since I first decided to cut down my weight. I wanted to do this for health reasons as well as for overall beauty purposes. I want to look good and be able to wear nice clothes and I also wanted to make sure that my health is at it's best state. I also wanted to be a mother soon and I believe that it would be harder for obese people to conceive. I don't want my weight to be a hindrance for my happiness.
Anyways, I already lost 13 pounds for the last three months. I know it isn't much, I myself is wondering why I wasn't shedding much weight though I've been working out almost everyday for two hours minimum. It's like I only lost 5 pounds per month, not bad but far from what I expected. Maybe because I am still eating a lot at that time. I eat almost two cups of rice every meal and I still drink softdrinks after each meal. I guess I've learned my lessons. Three months of gym subscription has ended and as I renew my subscription...I would make sure that this time I would make sure that in three months, I would be able to shed at least twenty pounds.
My friend Odie, who used to be a gym instructor before told me to eat a lot of protein to boost metabolism. He also said that I need to cut down rice consumption. I really adore him for taking care of his body. He does have a great abs and strong arms. He once told me that he is taking Anadrol. I asked him once if he is not afraid of taking in drugs such as that and he told me that he never take any drugs without the knowledge of his physician. He is also taking considering taking a certain pill called winstrol, a kind of anabolic steroid.
As of this time, I am working out three times a week, eats half a cup of rice every meal, drinks green tea after each meal and makes sure that I do have at least one physical activity everyday. I pray that this time, I would be able to achieve my ultimate weight goal.
A Gift of Hearing
At 65, I'm very proud to say that my mom still looks 50. She is still very healthy and still was able to go to the mall alone, go to Church activities every other day and still have time to visit us every week. I adore her energy and her outlook in life. She is indeed enjoying her life to the fullest. There is only one thing the concerns me, she is now having difficulty hearing. You need to really speak louder for her to be able to understand what you are saying. Good thing, I do have a strong voice so conversing with her is a breeze, but how about others who are not aware of her condition? How would they react if my mom was not able to respond to what they are saying?
One of these days, I'll gonna buy her one of those hearing aids to help her hear better. I believe there's also what they call digital hearing aids which is a more advanced type. I'm yet to decide as to what to buy. I guess I need to accompany her first to a specialized clinic to have her hearing tests done first to know what would best suit her needs. I hope through my own little way of helping her with her hearing problem, I can express my deep love for her.
Alternative Medical School
School year is almost over and thousands of high school students are now preparing to enter College. There are a lot of options of what College course to take but for me personally, Medicine is the closest to my heart. I don't know but there is something about helping people the draws me near to that field. I took Engineering during my college days but I also remember asking my mother if I could shift to Nursing on my second year. She didn't agree to the idea and said that I should just finish what I started. So here I am, though I don't regret anything in my life...I still often think of what might've been if I followed my heart in finding the best career for me.
With that in mind, I tried searching for the best medical school available. Who knows, I might end up studying again. I was surprised to see that there is an alternative medicine school located in Arizona that offers courses in natural medicine and holistic health. It really caught my attention as this is the first time I've heard of such course in medicine. Naturopathic medicine is what they call it, it is an alternative medical system that focuses on natural remedies and the body's vital ability to heal and maintain itself. So there is really a scientific basis that body does have it's own healing powers. I can't help but stand in awe and wonder how God made our bodies so powerful that it can even heal itself. I wish I can still go to some naturopathic college so I could learn more about our own body's healing powers.

A New Laptop For Christmas
Last month was I think the worst month of my blogging career. I wasn't able to write at least one article for the whole month of July, would you believe it? A lot of things happened which affected my mood to write which left me with a lot of regrets. I should've spent my time, energy and emotions on my writing career instead something (or someone?) who is not worth it. I should've spent my spare time writing reviews and earn extra so I could soon buy a new Dell laptop computer instead of wasting my time in front of my computer doing nothing but check on my Facebook and Twitter accounts. I prefer to buy that brand because I've read a lot of positive Dell netbook review. I wish I could find an online store that gives out a Dell discount coupon or some product vouchers. My current laptop which is an Eee PC Asus is now acting up that's why I want to buy a new one. I guess I could only afford to buy one in December when our Christmas bonus will be released. Would definitely ask my computer geek best friend to accompany me when I already have the money to buy one.
Sleep Myths Debunked
MYTH: you wiill get sick if you don't get eight hours of sleep each night.
DOCTOR SAYS: No amount of sleep fits everyone, individual requirements vary. Some studies show sleeping more than eight hours a day can also be detrimental to your health. For some, five to six hours of sleep may be enough.
MYTH: Having poor sleep the night before will make you irritable.
DOCTOR SAYS: Most patients can be functional even after a poor night's sleep. It is important not to attribute daily hassles with disturbed sleep. Initiative and motivation may be diminished, but actual performance and alertness may remain intact.
MYTH: Insomia is the cause of a chemical imbalance.
DOCTOR SAYS: Although this may have a valid contribution,dwelling and worrying about things you can't change will only increase anxiety.
MYTH: You can "make up" for lost sleep by napping, sleeping early, or waking up lte the next day.
DOCTOR SAYS: Varied times of sleep compensation are actually harmful to sleep habbits.
MYTH: If you try hard enough, you will be able to sleep.
DOCTOR SAYS: The more you try, the more anxious you get, and the more likely you won't be able to sleep.
Protective Gears
Boredom Busters
It's been quite a while since I last updated this blog. I've been through a lot these past few weeks and I didn't have the jive to write. Is that what they call writer's block? I guess so. Anyways, everything is now going pretty well and I'm so happy that I was able to get over of whatever that is that's making me feel miserable. I started going to the gym and vowed to spend at least two hours in the gym to attain my ideal goal of 130 lbs in December. I need to lose weight not only to look good but also for health purposes. Things are going well in the office as well, since the IT people changed our office firewall, we were not able to surf the internet anymore but what's good is that we were able to get a proxy server which will allow us to still pull up websites. It really eases our boredom especially if there's not much calls are coming in. My favorite site is Brainist - a site where you could play multiple brain games, brain tests and strategy games. Not only is it very enjoyable, I also was able to test knowledge about certain topics which will greatly improve one's mental wellbeing. What's good about the site is that it's 100% free. Since I've discovered this site, my officemates started to get addicted to it. LOL.
My Current Health Condition
I again wasn't able to go to the office today due to sore eyes. It's been almost two weeks now and I still have this red thing on both of my eyes. It becomes irritating at time but I guess it's also my fault because I keep on wiping my eyes with a handkerchief and the doctor who checked my eyes said maybe that is the culprit because I keep on wiping my eyes with it. It might've irritated my eyes. Anyways, I've already learned my lessons and would use a tissue to wipe my eyes instead.
Another thing that bothers me is my backache. I have been dealing with this since I've worked in a call center which requires us to stay on our office chairs for more than 8 hours. I think that is the reason why this chronic back pain. The nurse on our company clinic once told me to buy an inversion table which help to relieve many forms of back pain. According to one article I've read through the internet, there are many benefits that have been suggested with the use of those inversion table or the practice of inversion therapy but the most popular one is back pain. In my search for the best inversion table, I stumbled upon betterhealthinnovations.com which sells out health and wellness products. They sell different kinds of inversion tables such as Teeter EP-550 Inversion Table and Teeter EP-950 Inversion Table . I hope I can save enough to buy one of those tables that would help me get rid of this chronic backache.
On My Way to Fitness
At last, on July 1st we would start our gym workout. I am so excited about it. I would definitely make it work this time. I have been in and out of the gym before and I guess I wasn't able to adopt a healthy lifestyle that's why I'm back to square one again. I need to lose these extra fifty pounds I've got and I intend to get rid of it in the next six months or before Christmas this year. I also was able to finally find a Herbalife Distributor where I could get Herbalife products that would definitely help me in my diet. My friend once told me about Herbal Nutrition Formula 1 Protein Drink Mix and she said it's really effective. I already know what I need to do and I would make sure that once I was already able to achieve my ideal weight...I won't stop from there. I would continue to workout to maintain my weight. I am really excited about this new endeavor and I know I would succeed this time. I can feel it, wish me luck!

Freedom To Chose
Do you ever wonder why Opticians don't want give you PD data. It is because they don't want you to buy your glasses through online store like Zenni: the #1 online eyeglasses store. Your PD or Pupillary Distance information is needed by Zenni to ensure proper eyeglass fitment. They want you to buy glasses from them that's why Opticians keep you away from ZenniOpt. I heard other selfish Opticians won't give out a client's PD even with a fee. I hope they would stop depriving people of this information and give people the freedom to choose where they want to wear glasses.
If you're blessed, buy me a cup of frap!
On Improving Lives
I'm happy that everything went well during my sister's stay here in our place. I believe she enjoyed each and everyday she's with us and I too am very happy that my family again had bonded after almost a year of not being able to see each other. My family is not perfect, we also had problems and one of those is my cousin's drug addiction problem. He's been hooked to methamphetamine for almost five years now and we can really feel our aunt's burden when we met her for our annual family reunion. Though my cousin is now 40 years old and already has his own family, my aunt still feels that the reason why he became an addict is because she wasn't able to pay much attention to him when he was still a kid. She already tried everything to help me get out of his addiction but everything failed. When mom had the chance to talk to her, she said that the best thing to do is to send him to the US where his father lives. My aunt and his husband has been separated since my cousin was only five years old. Mom said that there are a lot of competent meth treatment centers in California would definitely help my cousin recover from his addiction. Those prescription drug treatment centers in California are specifically trained to help addicts cope with their addiction and help them start their lives all over again. Mom feels that sending him to California, away from bad influences would definitely speed up his recovery. Good thing, my aunt took mom's advice and is now on the process of looking for the best meth treatment centers in California . I hope she would be able to find one as soon as possible.
