diet pills, diet pills

You know, I'm still trying to find the right diet pills for me. It's hard to find diet pills that work, sometimes the market just releases them in order to make a quick buck. I know in the past I had experienced terrible side effects and seriously, diet pills aren't for me. I'm still trying to find the right one though. Hubby leaves in 12 days for basic training and I promised him while he's away I'll be giving myself my own basic training as well. It's fair enough. I need the best motivation out there, I'll try my best with losing weight. I need to lose 50 lbs more! Lately I haven't been at the gym, I need to get back in track again. Sadly, I won't be having a gym buddy anymore. I'll try my best to get into classes like Zumba and cycling. Hoping I can reach my target by next year, so wish me luck!

the past and the present

I was about to visit this website to read about stainless steel barrels when an article caught my attention called "10 worst beauty trends of the last decade". As I was reading the top ten worst beauty trends, I couldn't help but laugh at the list. Why? Because it is so true! Fake tans are like on top my list. Sadly, I dislike fake tans. Nothing beats a real tan from the great sun itself. I remember one controversial actress was so tanned her palms were so orange! Her tan was so uneven on some places, it was terrible. I so agree with the writer that the women of the past were more beautiful than the women of today. I guess people can easily get into a fad in one time or another. Luckily trends come and go, thank God for that.

Roswell vs. Twilight

Hahaa! Please don't get mad at me for comparing the two. I started watching Roswell like 2 weeks ago and I am completely hooked. I was watching a few episodes once in awhile back in Hawaii, but I wasn't really into it. Roswell started back in 1999, I was only 16 at the time and I wasn't really into those kind of shows yet. Now, after watching the complete season 3, I started the other day with season 1 and I'm still not done. Weird, I know - why did I start from season 3? Blame it on the hubby. (LOL) Anyways, I think I had caught the Roswell bug because I am so in love with the story and the characters as well. The story is based on the books Roswell High, I saw those pocketbooks at a library Once in the young adult section. I was searching for Roswell vs. Twilight articles around the net and surprisingly, there were a lot of them. I found 2 that I liked, Check them out HERE and HERE. When I started watching Season 1 I couldn't help but notice the similarities, like the lab scene, How they seem like outcasts, quiet, handsome, beautiful, savior, etc. I'm not going to elaborate the similarities anymore, Plus they are entirely different and I love both shows. If you had watched Roswell, you'll know what I mean. If you haven't watched it please do so, It's like falling in love all over again. I'm a huge twilight fan and now I'm a huge Roswell fan, too. I can't help but fall in love with the characters Max and Liz, Jason Behr and Shiri Appleby just fit their characters so well, I am soooo loving it! I just wished there were more. So sad they had to cancel it.(sigh) Would it be great if they brought it back with the original characters? I'm pretty sure it would be a hit. Everybody loves a good love story...

drat, a flat tire!

Last week, while driving to work I caught the lady from the vehicle next to me waving at me and pointing at the back of my van. I suddenly got worried and decided to stop at the shoulder. I looked at the time, I had 20 more minutes. I was just half a mile from my exit, why does this have to happen? Why now?

I walked to the very back, nothing seems to be missing. Then I saw my left tire in the back, It was so flat! I was running on a flat tire, no wonder I felt all wobbly while driving. I called my husband and he told me to call our motor club right away. I was so glad we have that roadside assistance plan at least we don't have to pay for anything. That's why it's great to have the best car insurance company, you need all the things in order to be protected, especially when you're in any car trouble, It's very important to keep your protection updated. The husband waited for the tow truck, and I used the old Camry to get to work. I was 30 minutes late. No biggie. :)

liar + user = loser

The title might give you a warning message of: "Stop! Do not proceed. Angry woman inside!"

To tell you the truth, I am upset. There was an incident the other day at work. My co-worker asked me to list down all the tasks we do inside the cash office. The next morning, I typed everything in a hurry and it was like around 4 pages. So, when I came to work she asked me for it and she took a look at it. I thought she was going to pass my work along with hers, I was supposed to pass it anyway to our supervisor. Later on that day, I was talking to another co-worker, I told her I typed some work procedures that morning and her eyes grew big, she took out a folded paper from her pocket, it turned out it was mine. She confessed that she heard my co-worker passing it to our supervisor and saying she finished it and she made some copies. I was so furious! What happened to giving credit where credit is due? She gets mad herself at people who lie to her face. Now who's doing it now? But that's OK. Everybody knows what she did. Such a shame. And don't worry, I didn't retaliate, because that's not my cup of tea. Always remember, what goes around comes around. LOL

time off for Disney

So sad, yeah... Our Deluxe annual pass will be expiring on October 31st. We canceled our Disneyland trip last week because the weather was bad. Bummer, I know. But it's OK, I heard Radiator springs Racers will be opening in 2012, We saw the construction going on while we were on top of the Ferris wheel at California adventure. We all agreed to renew our annual pass maybe a few years from now. We've had enough time to go back and forth to the happiest place on earth. We are truly blessed to live nearby. We enjoyed every minute of it, truly worth it. Me and the husband were talking about taking a vacation in Orlando when he gets back from his training. I told him it is a great idea but Maybe It's better if we saved money first for our trip, besides those theme parks will always be there no matter what, It's not like it's the end of the world, right?

no brawn here

I remember when I first started in the commissary seven years ago, We didn't have barcode scanners yet at that time in our store and years went by we were hoping they could upgrade our machines. Time after time, we would all rant about how hard it was to carry those buckets and buckets of kitty litter and bags of dog foods, and oh my goodness they are really heavy! Every time the elderly baggers try to carry heavy items I offer them help to do it myself, sometimes when I carry heavy items I feel like something had ripped inside me, I was always wishing for a barcode scanner so I can easily scan them. It was just terrible! I was younger then, about 20 years old and I was still healing from an emergency c-section months before I started at the commissary. But right now, It seems all stores have them now, which is good. It's better that way, at least you can easily do your job and check out customers as fast as you can.

my diet plan

I'm so tired hearing this word. But You know what, it will surely help me with my weight loss. I'm just waiting for the hubby to leave in November, after that I'm on my own. That means, I'm all alone now. No Gym buddy. Ugh. I can't even think about it. Once again I need to whip out my handy dandy notebook, It worked before and it will work again.



You see, keeping tabs of what you eat just controls your food intake. I had a notebook with me and I also kept a journal on my Blackberry notepad, keeping track of my weight every day. Hubby bought me a glass digital scale a few months ago and I'm quite happy with the results, better than the old school kind of scale, I sure hated that.

So, since the hubby will be on basic training, I myself will be on my own basic training as well. I want the husband to be proud of me when he sees me, I need to lose more weight so when he graduates from Basic training we might push through our plans with no regret. I just need motivation. More motivation. So good luck to me! :)
My diet will consist of seafood, vegetables, fruits and whole grains. I'll try my best to buy gluten free products, too. I won't be buying junk food anymore, either. Then since I'll be working nights every day, I'll go to the gym in the morning after dropping off the kids. On some days, I'll workout using The biggest Loser DVD called cardio max. I'm just hoping and praying this will work out for me.... wish me luck!

yummy grilled pork chops

While I'm typing this, I am so craving hubby's grilled pork chops. He made some BBQ pork chops last night, we went grocery shopping over at Sea food city by National City. It was just Delish. Yummy! My gosh, my stomach is just growling non-stop just thinking about it. Sue me for not eating when we went to Taco Bell today, I was full at the time and I only ordered a sparkling Limeade. I just want to go downstairs right now and heat up a piece of pork chop. But it's just totally wrong! The time is now 10:43 in the evening and eating at this late hour is a total NO-NO.
I received The biggest loser DVD from the mail a few days ago, I got it as a reward from my GYM points. You see, I wasn't expecting this at all - we thought we'll be having a bodybugg when we reach 24 medals. We were so upset, it was only 6 months! I had a notice from my email that we needed to choose a reward before it gets forfeited. Boo!
But anyways, I'm on round 2 so I'll try my best to answer more surveys and earn more points so when I reach the 6 month I'll have enough points for a bodybugg. YAY! Anyhoo, back to those lip smacking chops - I'll keep myself busy so I can totally forget about my hunger right now. The wolf in my stomach is hungry and needs to be stopped! (LOL)

sweaters

So hubby will be leaving on November for Basic training, but he'll be back in December for vacation that's why I'm not too sad about him leaving because in a short time we'll be seeing him again and we'll all be together for Christmas and new year! isn't that great? When we were in Vegas, we dropped by Ralph Lauren and checked out some sweaters, The lady smiled at us and asked if we were OK and if we needed anything, hubby replied that we were fine and we were just looking around. He told the lady that he is just giving me hints on what to buy him for Christmas. Funny guy! Anyways, hubby won't be shopping for new clothes right now because if he does All his clothes are going to be so loose on him it won't be as nice, right? So he vowed no clothes yet until he graduates from basic training. I have to do the same thing myself, believe me I don't want to waste all my clothes now.

vacay, vacay, vacay!

For the past few days it has been raining, and I can say the weather turned cooler now, thank God. The past few weeks has been so hot I couldn't stand it, I felt like my head would explode. I hate the heat, and the sweat forming in areas I don't want them to.. ugh, terrible. Especially when I go to work, I have to put the AC on full blast. We canceled our Disneyland trip today, and we were suppose to go tomorrow, but that got canceled, too. Earlier today at four thirty AM, as I woke up I looked outside to see if it was raining. It wasn't. But the rustling of the leaves and the damp breeze sent a shiver to my spine. I told hubby we shouldn't go anymore, it might rain while were at Disneyland, it would be a waste. He agreed. Around seven thirty AM, he woke me up to a rainy morning, he was laughing. All giddy, he went back to bed and told me Mother sure knows best. He also felt that if we did continue our trip we might get into an accident. It's just an intuition. You gotta trust your Intuition. It always helps and it's not bad to follow your senses. Anyways, we just went shopping today and we had a great time driving around. Hubby dropped by his recruiter to have his weight checked, he had lost a lot of weight since he had gained weight the last 2 weeks he just went back to the gym for a few days and dropped it just like that. Amazing! Hubby is planning that we go for vacation in Florida maybe next year or maybe when the next baby comes out. I am soooo excited for sure. Maybe one day, I'm thinking about Branson Missouri vacation packages, I might have to convince hubby about this one since It will be a little pricey. I want something different for a change. I'll wait until our next child will be a little older so he/she can appreciate that vacation, I think that would be a great idea.
