Healthy tips

  • Drink plenty of water daily (2 litres +) to keep you hydrated, and so your body can drain out all the impurities out of your body properly.
  •  Eat lot of fruits and veggies (I can't stop focusing on their benefits)- they help improve your immune system and keep you away from lot of diseases.
  •  Limit saturated fats (in potato chips, fast foods....)
  •  Eat cereals, preferably whole grain because they are low in fat, rich in fibre and slower food absorption which keep you full without eating a lot and good for weight control
  •  Moderate your sugar intake (to protect against diabetes of course)
  •  Eat nuts (almond, brazil nuts, walnuts, pecan, and macademia)- all contains good cholesterol and fats.
  • Be active (Do a lot of movement daily, either walking, running, dancing, do something which will help you move)
Now I believe that if you follow those tips, it will be the start of a new heatlthy lifestyle. Sometimes, you might  not feel like it and go pass the rules. It's okay to give up once but so long it does not become a habit, it's  alright. Everything has to be taken slowly.

I saw this from a page: 'Your happiness is the reflection of your health' To bear in mind ;)

Wanna make your own Subway® at home

Okay, so why spending how many $ on buying when you can have your own healthy version at home. Yesterday, for lunch we had bread (baguette) with turkey ham, cranberry sauce (did I mentioned that cranberry sauce goes so well with turkey yumm), cucumber, spinach leaves, grape tomatoes, and carrots. As desserts, we had white and red grapes. A healthy and nourishing lunch.
I didn't take any pictures because I was obviously too hungry aye. Until next time xx

Steamboat



My brothers and I usually do steamboat at home. It's one of my favourite meals. I like soups in general and this is yummy. Alright, I'm unusually lack of words today, but like the saying goes a picture is worth a thousand words. So I'll be generous with the photos.


These are definitely cute stars
I like the mushroom balls, their shape is like mushroom and they have mushroom filling. Okay it's official now, I feel hungry, despite having dinner just recently :O

I love the tofu and the 'enokitake' or 'golden needle mushroom' as well -->the long one
So delicious

With green veggies of course :p


Ooooh mushroom fish ball, one of the best fish balls everrrrrr

Guacamole

Okay like I mentioned, avocado is my revelation of last year. This fruit (I actually just google whether it is a fruit or veggie haha) just taste amazingly good and is so rich in goodness. It is good for your skin, health, blood circulation. Well see for yourself ;) So like I was saying this is a gorgeous fruit.

Now the dish that I like the most is guacamole. I mean this is just perfect. It's so healthy. It is one of the most healthy meal ever. It's creamy, delicious, I could go on like that actually. More praise for this dish hehe.

My guacamole is simple, so avocado, tomato, and lemon juice. Well if you have a lil more time, add a clove of crushed garlic. Some of the recipe I saw ask to add salt and pepper- I think it's not necessary as the flavours are already amazing and in my opinion it will just affect the taste. I'm not a great salt lover anyway- I try to avoid them the most if possible. Well, this is simply a perfect dip or meal to eat like that.

The other day, I did not have tomato with me, but cherry tomatoes. Oh my goodness, it was way better than normal tomatoes; the sweetness that came from the mix was a delight to the mouth. I want more!







This one is the first time I made it:
