I got this new neat Wii game called EA Sports Active which happens to be the latest craze in town and started with the 30-day challenge yesterday. I was so excited and couldn’t wait to start. From what I’ve been reading from other hot moms who started with the challenge ahead of me, the workouts are really good and made them sore. So the EA Sports Active package ...

Having acne and rosacea at 38 is totally not cool. Though I like looking like a teen, I can do much better without the breakouts that comes with it. My only wish is to find something that would help me clear it up before my two girls become teens themselves. Can you imagine the three of us going through the acne phase all at the same time? That would be awful … and awkward! All ...

I got my Vroom last week, and my bathroom has never been the same. I’ve always been a clean freak. I don’t like feeling crumbs or dirt in my bare feet. That’s why I don’t hire anyone to clean my house. Coz I’m never satisfied with anybody else’s cleaning. Must have gotten it from my mom. Hubby says I have obsessive compulsive disorder, and he might have a point. ...

Weee! I have a new toy! My Omron Pocket Pedometer HJ-112 arrived on Monday and I have been spending my precious mom time with it eversince. My kids thought I got myself my own mom-size tamagotchi since I’ve been banned from playing with theirs. Now that I have a new toy, I am totally sooo over tamagotchis! I love that my pedometer is smart like me. You know what ...

Boy, that was a lot of x’s! And I sure did get your attention with my catchy title, huh. Try enunciating the word with me: F-l-e-x-x-a-t-i-o-n… ten times! See how it “flexxed” your tongue? Well, I sure wished achieving exxtasy was that easy! But it’s not. So what the hell am I talking about? I’m talking about the hottest exercise in the market today, ...

I wear my lip colors depending on my mood. I’m usually happy most of the time so I like to wear light lip colors like pink, nude, and peach. Now, when I feel angry for some reason, like I didn’t get enough sleep, or my husband’s annoying me, I like the bloody red for my lip color. I’d go for the darkest brown I can find when I’m trying to scare my kids, LOL! Because ...

Did you know that? Yep. According to Realge.com, people who sit around too much have their enzymes that breaks down fat, practically turned off. But no worries, you can turn it back on again. How? Well, for one, stop being a couch potato! Their studies on animals show that cutting back on time spent moving around had a big impact on the enzymes that helps break down fat ...

If you’re having unexplained headaches or back pains, brittle nails and hair, frequent allergies, exposure to cleansing solvents, pesticides, diuretics and certain drugs, etc. or having memory problems, it could be a sign that you need to detoxify. Detoxification is the process of eliminating toxic substances in our body caused by environment, our exposure to industrial ...

I was ranting at facebook and twitter about my frustration with mosquitoes this summer. It’s just horrible! Add the fact that they love to feast on me, but won’t bite my husband. Not that I want him bitten, I just think they love me more, and it’s not fair! Spray some insect repellant! There. Problem solved. Uh, no, thanks. Really. I don’t like slathering myself ...

When I was growing up in the Philippines, we didn’t have any water filters. We only drank tap water coz that’s all we had. What my mom did was to filter the tap water using layers of cloths that she would cover the faucet with, when she fills out our glass bottles for the fridge. And I remembered seeing rust like particles on the cloths after filtering out the water. ...
