Before we talk about lechon, I have a question. Does the word business come from the state of being busy (e.g., busy-ness)? It has been a very busy week at work for me, but I don’t really feel tired or stressed. It’s the good kind of hustle that I have been missing coming from a […]
Three months into the Keto Way of Eating (WOE) and I thought that it’s about time that I start expanding my menu. I saw a video on Facebook about creating Keto bread so I decided to give it a try. Ingredients The ingredients are simple: 7 medium sized eggs 1/2 cup butter (melted) 2 tbsp. […]
Coming from an almost 10-lb weight loss on the first week, my second week of doing Keto showed underwhelming results. I only managed to lose 1.7 lbs, after hoping for another miracle week. This made me decide to stop taking my weight measurement on a weekly basis, rather, just get my measurements monthly instead. What […]
HURRAY! I made it through supposedly the worst week of Keto – the first one! I normally work from home on Mondays, so here’s a rundown of my meals for the day: Breakfast and no Lunch For breakfast, my brother cooked Delimondo Ranch Style Corned Beef and sunny side up eggs. I don’t think I’ll […]
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 […]
It’s my first day of following the daily themes I’ve set for myself. So, even if I’m quite drunk and that it’s quite late (it’s already Saturday early morning, to be exact), I am forcing myself to write this post so that I don’t feel like such a loser on my first day. Crying Tiger. […]
I’m not a big fan of desserts, so when I stumbled upon Crepe Amelie’s Dulce de Leche, it felt like love at first sight (or taste, rather). Just cutting through this masterpiece, cream oozing out of each layer of crepe – looks and feels so good. And the moment you take a bite – bursts […]
