Oh, before I begin: let me point out, this is not a sponsored post or a product review from a blog event or something like that Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but I just wanted to point it out because, yes, I’m kinda going to rave a bit and I don’t want it [...]

Okay…. I know I just found a good hoop yesterday…but but but….. lookie what I’m getting for Christmas!!! photo from the Hoopnotica webiste Well, that’s if the box my sister is sending comes in time for Christmas hehe. I finally ordered one of this online and luckily, they do Pay Pal payments. Yes, I know [...]

A few months ago, I wrote a post about the Philippine Edition of the hit TV show, The Biggest Loser. If I were braver, and perhaps willing to take this weight loss journey a step further (I mean, I’m doing it quite publicly enough as it is hehe), I would have wanted to audition for [...]

This weekend I did what I’ve been meaning  to do for the longest time: I cleaned out my closet. I had to get rid of over half of the stuff…some because they were too big already (yey), some because they were still too small. Some I discarded because it was out of fashion, some I [...]

Before I reveal the winner of the 2011 Belle De Jour Planner, let me apologize for the delay…yep, this blogger kinda got waaay in over her head with work and other stuff these past few days. Anyway, thank you so much to all those who joined in and shared their stories of celebration. It was [...]

It would be easy to assume that since I’ve struggled with weight all throughout my life, that I was a fat baby as well. Contrary to that, however, I was not. Although admittedly I was my mom’s biggest and heaviest baby (compared to my 3 siblings), I wasn’t really considered a fat baby. I was [...]

As if the 50% off sign wasn’t enough to celebrate…look it, look it….size what?!?! Weeee!!!! Yes, the little joys of shopping. And yes: before anyone rains on my parade, I do know that sometimes Bayo (and Kamiseta for that matter) often have a weird standard for sizes and that often times garments that have the [...]
