Workout time !

I rarely check my weight because I always get disappointed. Last week, I dont know what has gotten into me when I stepped on that weighing scale! There, I found out that I am at my heaviest now. Well, except for the time that I am pregnant of course. I really need to religiously follow a workout routine. I was on a good start last month but I got a little lazy lately and started to eat anything I want too. This is not getting any good physically. Of course I would want a healthier me by the end of the month.  So I will be more strict this time , do my exercise and cut down my food intake and eat healthy  too. I am getting myself some workout clothes ( I dont think I will need a plus size sports bra already) to get me on the roll! Wish me luck, i need that.

Daddy the Handyman

Having your dad around the house means you have a handyman who can certainly fix everything for you in no time ! My dad was away for 8 years so I already forgot how it feels to have him around. But since last year that he moved here, anything that needs to fixed were done in a jiffy. Whenever he is not doing anything with his grand kids, he will fix some broken doors, cabinets and water pipes. If he is not fixing anything , then he will do other things like wood works! Now i know what to give him on Father's Day. He may also want some swivel pads, what do you think?

I am so grateful to have him , not because I have a handyman around but because I missed him so much. Its the best time to catch up.

Cigar Lighters and other Father's Day gift ideas

In just a few weeks away, we will be celebrating Father's day! As early as now , I am looking for some possible gift ideas for my dad and my husband. Just like every year, I always try to look for new gifts for my dad but I always end up with the common things that I find practical and useful in his everyday life. If only he is a smoker, I would have given him cigar lighters. But so far , I am thinking of getting him any of the following:

- a leather belt
- messenger bag for his everyday errands
- an iPad

He is not into any gadgets so I might as well introduce it to him. What do you think?

Insoles for running

Finally , me and my husband are starting out with our Healthier Lifestyle this 2013. Well, we have to admit that we are not getting any younger and that we need to be more fit and eat healthy if we want to enjoy more in life. I am planning to consult a nutritionist so we can address what is best for us especially my husband now has Diabetes.

On the other hand , we will also be doing rounds of exercises with friends , like running. We have rubber shoes already but a trainer suggested we get insoles for running too! This will make running easier and would avoid some injuries too.
