Don’t let the media manipulate your health
Contrary to what we see everywhere, being waif-thin is not healthy. Many would argue that “thin equals beautiful” but that is simply not the case. This popular belief is effortlessly pushed by the media to extremes. It is the media that dictates that we should put much importance on weight and body image and [...]
Healthier Approach to Fight Obesity
A friend of mine and I were talking about weight loss a few weeks ago and she mentioned to me that there are these slimming pills in the market now that works wonders. And I asked her if these are the slimming pills that makes you rush to the toilet every after a few minutes [...]
If I Were Obese
If you have read some of my earlier posts, you’d know that I am a person who is conscious about my health and my body. I always try to eat healthy and if I notice that I am getting heavier than my normal weight, I try to tighten up my diet but I am [...]
My Perfect Size
When we came here last June, I was like size “6” because of the overeating we did in Austria. It took me almost four months to get back in shape and it was difficult. When I did some shopping last Monday for the Austrian Party, I was relieved to learn that I can fit into [...]
Problem with Sleepless Nights
I have been sleepless for the last four or five days due to a lot of reasons. First is the fact that my husband is not here. He’s on a business trip somewhere and he won’t be coming home until Friday. I am just not used to sleeping alone anymore. The second reason is stress. [...]

Vanity is over-rated. Women owe it to themselves to feel beautiful. It is their personal obligation to make themselves look beautiful. And it is their own responsibility to make the best out of themselves.
They say “beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder”. And real beauty is skin deep. But if women feel that there [...]
The Regimen
My beauty regimen calls for tedious application of beauty products before going to bed. It was a routine that calls for the three basic principles of cleanse-tone-moisturize. It was a simple daily night habit that if I forget to do it I won’t have a good night sleep. And so, no matter what time of [...]
Beauty is Skin Deep
