Before I start this post, here’s Day6 with an apt song – Congratulations. I am happy I made it through the past two days. It hasn’t been easy, but the fight continues! Tired of fat The sight and smell of oil and butter makes me want to vomit, so I went out and looked for […]
Is this the Keto flu? I don’t really know. Despite feeling like sh*t the day before, I still woke up early (around 7 am), but still not feeling well. Since I didn’t have anything planned for this Saturday, I decided to skip on my bulletproof coffee and just spend the day recovering, in bed. It […]
My first 3 days of Keto diet was smooth-sailing. I barely had anything to complain about, so I was positive that this would really work for me. My fourth day, however, was a totally different story. It started in the morning. I woke up at 7, but I felt so tired, so I went back […]
How do you know when your Keto diet is working? According to a post from healthline.com, there are at least 10 common symptoms, both positive and negative, that will signify Ketosis. I’m just on my third day but I can already relate to some of these. As early as the 2nd day, I have already […]
Some people think that with Keto, as long as you avoid carbs and sweets, you can eat as much as you want. If you’re really after losing weight, I don’t think that will help. Depending on your goal, you need to adjust the total calories you take in daily. There’s a Keto calculator which I […]
So, Day 1 started with me taking my baseline weight measurement. I’m starting at 80.3 kg (177 lbs), which is within my average for the past year (I fluctuate from 170-179 lbs). My goal is to bring my weight down to my ideal weight of around 130 lbs (for my height) – and that’s a […]
One of my goals this year is to lose weight and improve my overall health. There are many ways to do this – but I’ve always had difficulty in sustaining diets or exercise. Enter Keto. A friend introduced me to Keto (short for Ketogenic) over lunch (we had eat-all-you-can samgyeopsal) and she managed to convince […]
The year 2017 was for me, a year of moving on. When my dad passed away last December of 2016, I realized that life is indeed very short and fleeting. I felt a kind of pain that I’ve never felt before – one mixed with regrets, what-ifs, and feeling sorry for myself and the family. […]
It’s only recently that I’ve discovered the minimalist lifestyle. I’m still far from calling myself a minimalist, but I’m slowly trying to get there. You may ask, why this lifestyle? I have one answer – I want to focus on the important things in life. The ones that make me feel like life is good. These […]
I’ve seen these Tiny Houses before on cable TV, but that was prior to my interest in living a life of minimalism. A lot of my friends have already bought their own condominium units, built their houses in the suburbs – and here I am, still renting a two-bedroom apartment with my brother. My future […]
