Diet Diva


It's been a while since I last posted. The holiday season had really been a busy season for me. Aside from not having time to shop for myself, I had no time to go to the gym as well. I am on a plus size and I had to work doubly hard than most people so that I will at least not gain weight. But with tons of parties at home, I reached my much dreaded obese numbers. Argh!! And to add to my weight problem,  I had already requested freezing of my gym membership for 4 months starting January 2014 since I have travel schedules.

This is when I decided to try healthy food delivery service where menus are prepared based on targeted caloric intake for the day - 1200 calories/day.

I booked @DIETDIVAPH for this week (Monday to Friday). I received my food at around 6:00-6:30 am daily. I wasn't expecting much but I was quite happy with the taste of the food. I ended up eating everything and actually enjoying it.

I am on my 5th day and so far, I lost 4 lbs. I wasn't very strict with the food that they delivered. if they give me tea or chocolate drink, I would opt to replace it with half cup coffee. For snacks, I would eat either a few slices of fruits (pear or apple) and/or 1-3 pcs of Quaker Oat cookies (119-126 kcal/3 cookies). But I compensate this with 20-30 mins brisk walking/jogging.

I am booking my 2nd week :)

If you just want to try it, go for 1 month 1 month though they also offer 3, 6 or 12 months. There are a few companies offering this service here in the Philippines. But after reading reviews from other Filipina beauty bloggers, I opted to try Glamourbox this month (P580).   And my box was delivered today..Yay!! So for my first "unboxing" blog entry....

El nido - You had me at hello!!

Image
Probably noticeable from my posts that I love going to different places. I have been blessed with opportunities from work and from people around me. Recently, I had the chance to finally visit one of the well known places here in the Philippines - El nido, Palawan. Based on recommendations from friends, we chose Pangulasian Island Resort. The price of the package is a little intimidating at first but after the trip, it was worth it. Here is my review: One of the best places I have been to. The experience, the people, the amenities, the beach - AMAZING. Location: Have to travel 55 mins from Naia (Manila) airport, then another 25-35 mins to the island via boat. When you check in your baggage, the next time you'll have it is in your villa, because even in the el nido airport, someone from the hotel will assist you and carry your things for you. Paperless boarding pass Our ride Red carpet ;) The Villa: Always clean. We went to join an activity in the morning

Louis Vuitton

I am not much into clothes fashion but I love bags and accessories. I was exposed to signature bags back in 2007 when we had our month long trip overseas. A friend of mine who was travelling with me had checked on the price of one particular Louis Vuitton bag in advance in all the countries we were scheduled to go to, to the point of making overseas calls to the stores just to see where to get it from the cheapest. Anyways, I didn't get my bag back then, but the following year, I received my very first LV (a gift) - a Montorgueil. It was purchased in Singapore for about P36,000 (with the exchange rate back then less tax). That started my mini collection. Now, I am often being asked by people around me regarding prices. Let me tell you, I don't keep a price database.. LOL! But here are the current prices that I have (last update May 2014). Please note that for tourists, you may get tax refund when you buy in Europe (about 10%) or Singapore (around 5%). Also, until further no
