Diet Sotanghon

This sotanghon was cooked with no oil, chicken with no skin, and had lots of garlic and Chinese onions. Simple as it may look, it was really delicious. And if one is on a diet, this is highly recommended.

He was taken away by a woman who pretended to be an aunt. The yaya said the said 'aunt' befriended her and told her that she is the sister of her amo. She also said that the 'aunt' said they were just going to buy something at the nearby store so the yaya allowed ramram to go. Still missing for 3 days I think.

Oxidative Stress

Have you tried using anti aging solutions? It is said that if we take in food that are known antioxidants, or use beauty products with glutathione, we free ourselves with free radicals. But oxidative stress also exists when one has a disease like Cancer and Alzheimer's. The more stressful the illness, the more it gives way for our skin to look old. 
That is why Oxis International have just the right products for all of us to try. If you wanna read about that simply go to www.oxis.com. You can also follow Oxis on Twitter or LIKE the page of Oxis on facebook.

Finding the Right Wedding Dress

A friend of mine in the US actually shared a bad experience over YM. She was looking for her wedding dress at a shop somewhere in New York and the people in a certain shop gave her the eye.. Instead of feeling good about finding her dress at that shop, she felt awful and did not pursue the purchase. Hmm.. that actually tipped me off my seat and well, I told her she should not be bothered by people's stares.. And recommended buying her wedding dress online.. Huh! Advice from someone who is also conscious of the perfect fitting, lol..

Anyway, below is what I shared with her:

1) There are many shops online. All we can actually do is do a little more research, research and more research!!!

2) Should a wedding dress require fitting, we should make mid week appointments, so there will be less crowd at certain shops. 

3) Of course, we have to call the shop, and let them know our TRUE size. It is a must to tell them what we wear, what  x dress size because most wedding dresses on display, and perhaps all wedding dresses are cut on the small side. After all, we live in a society that never believed in happy endings for BIG BEAUTIFUL Women! Besides, there is nothing worse than going into the bridal shop to try on a dress 3-4 sizes smaller. It is discouraging, albeit, frustrating!

4) It is often recommended that BIG WOMEN go for a corsetted back for a more secure feel, at the same time get a gorgeous hour glass figure.

5) Go shopping with someone who will be honest, but not brutally frank as to ruin your mood.

6) Of course, this one is applicable to all bride to be.. Don't leave such wedding preparation until the last minute. The more time intended to finding the perfect wedding dress yourself, the more relaxing it will be later on. Most importantly, have a good time and more choices in the process.. 

7) Of course, one must be prepared to travel and move around the city and beyond.. 

8) Lastly, go in with a positive attitude. Know that you are beautiful, and that your fiancĂ© loves you. The women who sneer at you, dont know who you are. Hell, they are even  missing out for not knowing you and your good heart. Who cares if you are a size 8 or 30? It is what is inside what counts.

Most importantly, let this be your shout out:

Fat girls get married
and most of the time we look better than the sneering walking sticks(insects) in gowns!
