Weight Loss Day 1

-



Filipino Food on the Whole30 program is easy peasy. Well, I'm not sure if I'm doing it right but based on the list I guess this is all allowed.



I had cauliflower rice, tortang talong and pork steak with onions for lunch and dinner. Soy sauce is not allowed so I used Bragg's Liquid Aminos in place of the soy sauce needed to make pork steak. How is it different from our regualr soy sauce? Bragg Liquid Aminos is not fermented, is Gluten-Free and made from non-GMO soybeans and purified water. It is an excellent alternative for Tamari and Soy Sauce. Bragg Liquid Aminos contains 320mg of sodium per teaspoon serving.

And then since I didn't get any email when I signed up for the 28 to Great Program, I just went on ahead and had a 30min workout. 😁 I really love Barre3 and I can't stop raving about it. When I went back to it, I wanted to go gradually into it so started with a 10 min workout but my abs already had some muscle pain the day after and I was pouring sweat! The 30 min workout I had this morning was a wonderful way to start the day. I am able to concentrate further into my tasks and I feel well balanced. I feel that my triceps have started to work again hehe and I didn't even use props.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow's workout hoping I could do 40mins. But tonight I am going to squeeze in 10mins before I take a shower. :)

Looking specifically for places where the kids can run and play? See our updated guide (2026) to the best playgrounds in Quezon City. Read here: Best Playgrounds in Quezon City. Ever since the twins were allowed to enter play floors, we have been bringing them over to such places to let them interact with other kids to improve their socialization skills. This and to let them have a bit of physical activities. It's such a shame though, that we do not have enough public playgrounds for the little ones, and the ones that are existing are not well maintained. Now this generations play areas are in malls and we have to pay a fee so they can have fun. We have been frequenting Trinoma lately since it's near our place and we love this mall because it isn't very crowded and even if the airconditioning is bad most of the time. There are some playfloors that my kids love to visit and everytime we are at the mall my twins would pester us to let them in and play.  Here are the play ar...
