let me whine a little...

- 50s & 60s temp during the summer (not to mention wearing a sweater or a light jacket);

- Been raining a lot lately;

- Perennial rhinitis (spring is long over and I still have allergy attacks which gave my Internist the conclusion that it’s a year round kind of allergy);

- Gained 10 lbs in 4 months… total of 23 lbs in 29 months (so freaking hard to lose it);

- Grown out of my clothes (which means I need to buy new ones… bigger ones! IFC is right that instead of me going back to my original shape, I let the clothes adjust on me. Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! )

- Gave up wishing for a smoother and clear skin (I guess it just can’t adapt to the US environment and climate)

- Been getting bad reception for the TV (which made us subscribe to “DVDs by mail”... added expense! *sigh*)

- Drinking coffee regularly (which I didn’t do before)

23lbs in 29months is nothing compared to my almost 30lbs in 29months! grabe, hindi ko alam how that happened. but i blame it on the weather here, the lack of activity and constant buffet sessions with harvey. masarap talaga kumain pag kasama mo asawa mo no?

but i already lost 15lbs of those since the year started and ever since i transferred to abu dhabi. 10 more pounds to go and im ready to go home to pinas again. ayaw ko kasing umuwi tapos maririnig ko lahat ng tao sasabihin na ang taba ko. hindi ata nila alam, masakit sa loob ko yun :)

omg, i hear you and gracita here! ;) i'm also in the same mark - kainis! but, i have to also add re: skin - i suggest you drink lots of water (vs coffee) so your skin can hydrate better. i find that drinking more h20 helps talaga.

gracita - i agree! wala nga kasing masyado activities. pero syempre kailangan ng control sa pagkain. buti ka nga you've already lost 15 lbs. how did you do it though?!

weng - you know for a fact, we all know what to do but it's just that we don't do it. funny huh! hirap uminom ng dami water eh... feeling bloated all the time.

kitts - buti nga sana kung ganun eh kaso si irvin mismo nagsasabi tama na ha! papayat ka na! yikes!

abby - buti na lang. u2.

hi faye! nag south beach diet ako nung january, i lost 8lbs then! from then on, hindi na ako ulit nag lose. pero when i transferred here to abu dhabi, i lost another 7lbs. which should teach us to move away from our husbands. sila ang may kasalanan bakit tayo tumataba! hehehe, joke! :)
