A little Self Check!

When was the last time you had yourself checked by a medical professional?

How can you say you're healthy enough and there's nothing wrong going on in your body?

How well, do you know your body?

I took a week off from any blogging platforms because I didn't feel well enough and don't have the energy to draft a thing. Flu season as we Pinoys say but no worries! I am better now and going back to my hustling routine.

Thanks to our mareng @Jijisaur for posting her article and it's perfect for a Friday blog.

How many hours of sleep do you get each day? Do think it is enough?

I usually get at least 6 hours of sleep, however, for the past week, I had less because we traveled back to Manila (husband stuff). Since we got back here in Tacloban, I had more than 6 hours of sleep because we had flu, and flu medicine made us very sleepy.

I think I've had enough sleep that I've gained back my energy and we are all back to our normal selves again.

Have you ever joined a gym or fitness club? What did you do there?

I tried to join a gym when my best friend signed up. I told her that I will just try one session and will see how it goes before I decide to sign up too.

What did we do? We smoked and ate a lot after HAHAHAHAH! I remember that we went to the nearest McDonald's and ordered spaghetti, a burger, and more than what we can eat. That's what usually happens when we try to work out, we always end up eating a lot after. The first time we went out to jog, we decided to go to Dampa after and ordered grilled food and lots of rice. Definitely working out is not our thing.

Are you more or less healthy today than you were 5 years ago?

This was me 5 years ago

This is me now

Did I get more or less healthy? Honestly, I am not sure. Gaining weight after giving birth doesn't make me healthy 100%. It was my dream to gain weight but gaining weight more than what I expected made my body hurt. Even after a year of gaining much weight, I am still not used to it.

When was the last time you got a medical check-up?

It was when I had a pap smear 6 months after giving birth.

Are you careful about how much salt and sugar you eat? How?

I try to hahaha! I do not have a sweet tooth but I do love salty and sour food or snacks. I love Coca cola too! I try to be careful by drinking or eating salty or sweet food by always drinking water after. Nothing beats very very cold water as my neutralizer for everything. I feel like it balances my food and liquid intake.

Do you care about your body shape? What can you do to change it?

I don't really care about my body shape in the sense of my appearance but I do care about it because I am not used to having a bigger body. Imagine for 30 years, I've had a petite type of body and suddenly gained about 15kgs more after giving birth. My back hurts a lot, all the time. I can't move the way I used to. I get irritated when I walk or run while something bounces on my chest.

What can I do to change it? I don't know maybe by working out but I can't work out long enough without getting back pains.

Hey, don't forget to get a little me time so you can take care of yourself in any aspect. Health is wealth. Health is life!

Ako sis dahil my rayuma ako at mataas Kaya I already learn to control sa mga food na kinakain ko especially yung salty one. Dati ang hilig ko sa toyo at bagoong now di na ako kumakain nun. About sugar naman mahilig ako sa sweets pero dahil Naka intermittent fasting na ako I learn also na bawasan ang sugar intake ko. Yung tanging sweets Lang na naiintake ko is yung champion Energen na iniinom ko sa Umaga.

For me, the issue of health has been a whole process, viruses always land on me, but I have a strong and healthy body to fight them

I have learned to love my body as it is, today I can say that with my physique there are no longer any insecurities.
