Tis' The Season To Be Jolly



Aaa...it's that time of the year again. Festivities and holidays are always are great time to be home, family gathering and catching up with friends you have not seen for a long time. It is also a great time to indulge on food and drinks and giving excuses like "Tidak apa la, setahun sekali aja." when you are over-eating. It is also very common to gain a few kg once the holiday is over. I don't know about you but every time i'm back in hometown, I'll go back 2-3 kg heavier. It must be something in the water...that or the home-cooked food i couldn't find anywhere else. 


Here are some smart eating tips during this Christmas:


1. Drink lots of water


Water helps you flush out all the wastes and keeps your stomach clean and functioning. Water helps in proper absorption and aids digestion. Drink lots of water before meal so you feel a bit full and will not over-eat.


2. Restrict alcohol


smart nutrition during Christmas is to avoid indulging in alcohol. A simple toast raised during the party or a sip here and there will not do much harm. It is harmful when you go on a drinking spree with friends and family. Try to restrict yourself with 2 alcoholic drinks or nominate yourself to be the designated driver.


3. Eat desserts that are fruit based


Fruits make for the best nutrition. It is packed with nutrients and low in calorie. 


4. Avoid a second helping


As much as you would love to take a second helping, restrain yourself and limit your food intake. This is because you would be already eating twice what you normally do and a second helping will contribute to a liberal amount of high calories.


5. Indulge in sweets but wisely!


Christmas time is THE time when you can please yourself once a year by indulging in your favourite cookies and cakes. While there is no need to punish yourself by not eating anything, make sure that you take a small portions of your favourites. This will keep your Christmas spirits alive while giving it a healthy and nutritional touch.


6. Use smaller plates


This is called eating psychology. When your plate is small, you tend not to pile your plate with too much food. Less food means less chance to overeat.


The plate on the right looks like it has more food right? The amount is actually the same.



So, lets eat (smart) and be merry this Christmas.  Blessed Christmas!

Porn Puaka Di Gym

Tajuk mengundang kontroversi Sis ni bukan apa rajin pergi gym, selain nak bersenam, iols juga suka mencuci mata.

Beauty In Its Simplicity

Photo courtesy of Paul I've known Renna from many years ago, back to the days when both of us are still students. Along with few other friends, we were always cramped into 22B on the weekends, doing a lot of foolish crazy things. We shared many memories of trips with the late Dr.Jugah and his family. Oohh those were the days. And then, life happens and most of us parted ways. Usually meeting up again during weddings. Renna and I were the kind of friends who don't talk on a regular basis but when we do, we just pick up where we left off. Of course, as she is friends with my family, she is also a family friend. God sometimes  always works in a mysterious way. Who would have thought that many years down the road from when we were just measly students, Renna would marry my brother's good friend?  The story started when my brother asked his friend/colleague, Corbin to tag along for a lunch meet up with Renna, and then they say, the rest is history. I'm tr...

Pulau Perhentian Travelogue Day 2: Ayuh Snorkelling Mencari Nemo

Pulau Perhentian Travelogue Day 2: Ayuh Snorkelling Mencari Nemo Wow banyaknya anak ikan. Aummm Belum baca cerita Day 1? Klik disini ye. Pagi-pagi buta seawal pukul 7.30 pagi iols dah bangun. Bangun awal sebab semangat nak terjah breakfast buffet hotel. Yang agak mengecewakan, weols semua 10 orang tapi yang hotel bagi complimentary untuk 6 orang sahaja. Jadinya yang 4 orang lagi tu makan megi dan roti dalam bilik jeh. Kalau tak complimentary, the breakfast buffet is RM30 per person. Hmm. I somehow think it's not worth it So weols rotate la. Hari ni iols breakfast kat restoran, besoknya iols breakfast dalam bilik. Our fav spot Restoran Sharila resort ni ada outdoor seating. Favourite spot weols is the gazebo on the cliff, overlooking the sea, serenaded by the sound of the waves. Such a wonderful experience. Aktiviti Di Pulau Perhentian Day 2 weols decide untuk snorkelling.  Ada banyak vendor untuk uols pilih kalau nak snorkelling ni tapi semua lebih kurang sama...
