A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
Lately I am a sucker for ice-creams, especially Magnum Almond! I would crave for it after lunch everyday. I used to gorge on ice-creams very often but have since kicked off the addiction. But lately, the addiction is back! But no way am I going to chomp down the whole Magnum ice-cream all by myself….
After delivering Sherilyn my #2, I found it hard to shed the last 2 kilos. For a few months, I drank a kind of flavored protein powder in the morning. That was supposed to be a meal replacement drink and works something like the best weight loss products but that did not help me much…
Whenever my 3 kids drive me up the wall to the point that I feel like throwing in the towel, I stop for a moment, take a deep breath and reminisce what I had gone through years ago. 9 years ago, I told God that if only he could give me one child, I will…
Several months ago, my mum gave me a scare of my life. She told me that she had slipped on the wet bathroom floor and fell, landing on her back. God must have been watching over her as she didn’t break any bone, albeit the fall caused a huge patch of blue black bruise on…
Some of the jobs that I know I will never excel in are jobs in sales. I don’t really have a gift of gab and I don’t fancy traveling. I prefer a job that allows me to work at the comforts of my own home in my pjs! I like what I’m doing now –…
Baby C will be 2 years old tomorrow. My tough little cookie survived all the ordeals that happened to her during the past two years of her life. I pray to God that she never has to go through those unpleasant events again, ever. She really deserves a celebration of a brand new life tomorrow….
Our electricity bills for the past 3 months have been soaring high. This is usually the case during the hot season when the air conditioner will be turned on throughout the night in the girls’ room and ours. While hubby isn’t really complaining yet, I find that paying over RM400 a month just on electricity…
When we were at the specialist eye centre yesterday for Baby’s eye surgery to remove the pus from a Chalazion on her lower eyelid, there were many patients there who had undergone a lazer surgery to fix their Cataract problem. A lazer surgery to fix a Cataract costs between RM3,000 – RM4,000. I wonder if…
Last week, the hubs submitted our claims to the insurer for Baby’s hospitalization stay for a urinary tract infection incurred in January 2010. I hope that this time the insurer will approve our claims. Since Baby’s kidney reflux problem is already fixed, the UTI that she had recently should not be classified as congenital. Anything…
I almost bought a treadmill a few years ago but the hubs prevented me from doing so. His reasoning was that there ain’t much space in the house to place the bulky treadmill. Fortunately I listened to him because we soon moved to a condominium that has a gym. The gym at our condo has…
