How I Lost Weight During My Singapore Vacation

No, it's not this ice cream sandwich! Haha, my apologies for the click bait photo. I went to Singapore for Holy Week break, and also to check out the Friend's inspired Central Perk Cafe but dundundun~ totally forgot to do just that, and only remembered when I got back home!!! How frustrating is that? Oh well, I can always go back another time, but I digress, if I still have your attention, click after the jump to find out how I kept my weight at bay.

Easy Peasy Tomato Basil Quinoa with Veggies

"A moment on the lips, forever on the hips!" A line delivered by my favorite, Joey Tribbiani of Friends. Funny as it is, it is also painfully true. The past weeks have been stressful for me, staying out late in the office, eating too much fast food and being sleep deprived. It took its toll on me, and by the end of it, I felt bloated, cranky and ugly. Something had to change, and it starts with me.

Creamy Sweet Potato Soup #HealthyEats

I've been bitten by the cooking bug lately, partly because dining out is costly but more so because I'm struggling with to keep my weight at an appropriate level. Well, what was I supposed to expect really? All that stress eating, add my sleeplessness and factor in my lack of physical activity and you have got a recipe for disaster! So, I've resorted to eating sweet potato to limit my rice and junk food intake. Sweet potato is good, but sometimes the good old boiling method gets a little too boring. So, I took it up a notch and made a hearty sweet potato soup and I swear, this soup's never boring.

Healthy Office Lunches Made Possible by Salad Mamas!

As we bid #NoDietDecember adieu, the consequences of our binge eating and cheat "month" comes crawling up our hips and thighs. It's the ugly truth, and it shows when we walk and feel our legs jiggling together or when we smile and our face transforms into a perfect full moon. It's so easy to get carried away with the convenience of fast-food since it's too accessible, sometimes cheaper and requires less effort on our part. Unhealthy eating and sedentary lifestyle can make one ugly aftermath, I tell you. That's why I'm so glad that I've found a way to watch my diet yet still enjoy my meals with @SaladMamas.

The Salad Project

I have always loved eating my veggies (except bitter gourd) ever since I was a kid, and it's a good thing I still do, now that I'm an adult. Nowadays, people can easily fall and stick into the bad habit of unhealthy eating. I do know how hard it is to succumb to your hot fudge sundae craving, or your weekly milk tea fix, or a serving of those crisp golden fries or even letting your guard fall down for those sinful donuts you keep on seeing everyday on your way to work. I should know, I work near SM Mall of Asia. Imagine the temptations I fight everyday. *shudders*
