Eating Habits to Avoid!!

YO-YO DIETING
Constantly swinging between starving yourself on a fad diet, then gorging yourself when you can't keep it up any longer, wreaks havoc on your blood-sugar levels and digestion. just take it easy and keep your eating lean and steady. the weight will then fall off and stay off.

LONG PERIODS BETWEEN MEALS
if you go for more than 4 or 5 hours without eating anything, your body starts to think that it's being starved, so cortisol floods your system to prepare for what it thinks is a famine. plus, when you do finally eat, you're more likely to overeat or pick the wrong things because you're so hungry.

SKIPPING BREAKFAST
Always eat withing an hour of waking up!! otherwise your body will become stressed. if you don't have time for breakfast, just grab a piece of fruit or something. never, ever leave it longer than an hour.

DRINKING AT MEALTIMES
Drinking at mealtimes slows down your digestion, which can lead to bloating and gas. aways drink atleast 15 minutes before or after eating meal, but not during it.

EATING TOO QUICKLY
For optimum digestion, you must eat every mouthful slowly, chewing it at least 20 times. don't eat when you're stressed, rushed or anxious, otherwise you'll stress out your digestion, which causes bloating. if you want a flat tummy, take it slowly and relax while you eat.

KICK-STARTING YOUR DAY WITH CAFFEINE
One cup of coffee is OK in the morning, but keep it to one and drink it only after you've eaten most of your breakfast. never drink coffee on an empty stomach.

NOT EATING ENOUGH FIBER
insufficient fiber leads to stress and inflammation of the bowels, and this will make your tummy look bigger.

5 star hotel with 3 star price

Just went home from Bandung a couple days ago. Busy area... traffic everywhere.. food usually too sweet, even the chilli are sweet.. gross! BUT.. i found a really comfortable hotel for a really cheap price.
The first night in Bandung, I stayed @ Novotel. the room cost me +/- Rp.900.000++ and the hotel was pretty dodgy. can't sleep.. room was too humid and not cold enough. So the next day i moved to Hilton Hotel. it's new.. it hasn't been a year yet, and it's pretty damn cheap for the price i pay. The Room cost me Rp. 1.100.000 nett, including breakfast.
Look at these room pictures that i got.. you will need to pay at least 3 or 4 million rupiah to get this kind of room in Bali.
i had 2 rooms with connecting door. one with king bed, one with twin bed (queen size)

What made guys a MAN

On one episode of “My Boys,” the character of Bobby got a little obsessed with what actually makes a “real man” and he enlisted all his friends to undertake 100 tasks that a man should be able to do. An interest in Nascar is not really my idea of manliness, but there are some qualities and abilities that are. Here are 20 things that make a man, according to "US Frisky" editors.
http://www.thefrisky.com/post/246-20-things-that-make-a-man/

1. He’s always polite to your parents to their faces, but just with you he agrees they’re bonkers.
2. He kills the spider ... or at least catches it and puts it outside. (my man do this for me ALL THE TIME :D)

11. He knows his way around the kitchen and doesn’t mind cooking 90 percent of the meals.
12. He has the ability to spot a cool car when all you can see is the city bus and a minivan.

Things Men Don't Know about Women

Women aren't as funny as men. We're often cleverer, frequently wittier, but to be really funny demands a certain clownishness that our grace just does not allow. It's fine, really it is.
Women love to be taken out to eat. It makes our day.
A clean apartment will get you more tail than you'd think.
Given the chance, women will smell and re-smell the scented-candle display at the store. We really can do this for ages.
Our clothes are complicated, our shoes unforgiving, and our constitutions delicate, so please, valet park.
Every living woman likes wedding crap. Even lesbians.
"Girls night out" is usually some other woman's idea.
Oftentimes, women simply want to lie back and get laid.
One orgasm is usually enough.
Women would rather be with you. We like you. Honestly, we talk about you all the time.
