Oh my, weekend has come and gone away without me visiting the Post Office. The car is still under repair, and I didn't want to bug my husband, hence, no postie update yesterday and today. So let me just share these mini-updates. I know this is all about me, which you might find boring or you don't have the time, but please, indulge me.
I have shamelessly mentioned here many times before about my quest to lose weight. Well, three months on and I already lost 7kgs - that's more than 10lbs!!! I didn't really follow any particular weight loss diets. I merely stayed away from unfriendly carbohydrates and sinful sweets, packed my meals with lots of vegetables, made sure I have breakfast, and took on the chore of walking my dogs two times a day. Three months after and I'm lighter and I feel healthier. The last time I checked is that with my current weight, I am just a few points away from a healthy BMIi! Awesome. All I have to do is continue what I am doing now and hopefully before 2010 ends, I'll finally achieve my goal of a healthy BMI..
Okay, so changing the topic to... my mini-contest. Previously, I posted a maxi-card from Italy (pic, right) and asked readers to identify the countries that the emblem represent. I am happy to say that two readers have answered correctly - Sheila, from A Postcard A Day; and Abishek Duggal, from Hawaii - and I will be sending a postcard to them this weekend, as I had promised. The correct answers are, in no particular order, Italy, Wales, England, Ireland, France, and Scotland. I'd like to shout out to Abishek Duggal: please email me as soon as you can. My message to you bounced back so please get in touch.
In addition, I also would like to thank my dear friend, Ana, of My World of Postcards, for offering to send my younger sister a football-FDC for her birthday. I am sure she'd absolutely go bonkers when she receives it. Многу ти благодарам, драг пријател. Сте биле многу прекрасни со мене.
Have a happy Monday, everyone. May we have a fruitful and happy week ahead of us.















Football? Oh, you mean soccer. :P
Hi Chris! What's up?
Went to your blog earlier but couldn't leave a message.
Yes, it's soccer to us, Filipinos, too.
you lost 7kgs already! congrats Z. samantalang ako, i have gained probably more than 7kgs in two month's time. ugh!
Mumsified, ang bagal nga e. The last time I posted, isang kilogram lang ang binaba. But anyway, a kilogram loss is a loss pa rin! I would like to say hinay-hinay ka lang dyan but on secondthought, ayos lang yan. I know you have the discipline to lose these extra kilos when you get back to your normal routine naman e :)
