Hands up if you’ve ever experienced the “this tastes so good but I am so full” feeling and yet proceeded to wipe your plate clean? With both my hands in the air, I’m guessing I’m not alone on this. Especially at restaurants, I would almost always eat my entire order, massive or not. I’m guessing …
Despite our food preferences, one thing we all share is cravings. Pregnant or not, we’ve all experienced them and on many occasions given in…or maybe that’s just me ;). Unlike hunger, cravings are more specific and involve a certain food being cooked/ served in a certain way. The other day, for example, I had the …
…of feeling sick and tired. During the last few days, I’ve been feeling slightly under the weather due the unexpected change in weather (I thought we were done with rains for the year!!!). I actually detest being ill as I find that it just throws my whole routine out of whack. Rest and recuperation seem …
For the longest time, I tried to convince myself that I didn’t like cheese. Call me crazy but avoiding it completely seemed a lot easier than limiting myself to a miniscule portion.

So my post on coconut water got me curious about electrolyte levels. I typically work out right before a meal so try to include a good balance of nutrients. What can I say: you gotta do what you gotta do to avoid the post-workout fatigue and muscle cramping ;). With sweat goes the electrolytes. Sorry …
Where food is concerned, I’ve never been one of those ‘take it or leave it’ people. I do put a lot of thought into what I eat, and try to eat food that either tastes good or is good for me. Over the last few years, my emphasis on food has shifted from being purely …
Coconut- I’ve always been a fan. Whether it’s the scent of my moisturiser, my selected flavour at Pinkberry, alcoholic drink (Yes, I actually enjoy Malibu and No, I’m not hardcore), or filled in my M&Ms (best flavour yet!), I can’t resist coconut. Ironically enough, I’ve never been a fan of coconut water. Although today my …
There is none! And if there was, I would be out there making millions on it rather than revealing it on my blog for free ;)!
