Re:New Me By Cohen Lifestyle Center

By | Great Achievements, Health and Fitness | 6 Comments

The fist time I heard about the Cohen diet was when I saw photos of my friend in facebook.  It was amazing!!  Mecca looks even younger than when I knew her about 15 years ago!

Then I heard more about it from our friend, Dette who would not eat anything when we would have our lunches!!  She was really very strict about what she was eating….no wonder these girls get such good results!!!

And then I also found out that my batchmate Rowena sent her daughter who is 18 years old  and she looks really great too!! Rowena told me that not only does she look great but it has changed her daughter’s life.  She has higher self esteem now and continues to work towards her desired goal

 So I asked Rowena to take me to the event with her because I wanted to know more about it and of course to see her daughter model 🙂

The owners themselves are living proof of the program because they themselves have lost so many pounds!  After seeing many testimonials, the average weight loss is around 10 pounds per month.  The beauty of it is that it is supervised and they take your blood pressure every month when you visit the clinic to have a check up

Dr. Bandola literally lost a whole person by losing 110 pounds!  AMAZING!!

I bumped into a few people who I knew- Batchmates – Anton Turalba- Abdon and Adiel Ty Cruz, Tita Evelyn, friends and relatives of people under the program,  some are undergoing already and some still planning to RENEW their lifestyle 🙂

I wish all events would serve healthy food 🙂  Even our food that evening was healthy and based on recipes from Dr. Cohen

Take note, they only give you a fork to eat 🙂  I don’t know if that is intentional but to me, it’s a good technique to lessen your eating

The event ended with a fashion show of some of the living testimonials and every one of them looked really good, healthy and happy!

And here is Isabella, Rowena’s daughter.  Rowena told me she was crying when her daughter was walking down the ramp….I would probably too.  Way to go Isabella!

Francisfest Charity Religious Auction

By | Arts and Culture, Giving Back | One Comment

Last October 20, Thursday, was the Francisfest Charity Auction organized by Tito Joey Soriano, President of the Parish Pastoral Council of the Sanctuario de San Antonio Parish Church.   His goal was to raise P 11m and by that evening he was already halfway without even selling yet all the auction items.

Inagiku Buffet

By | Foodie, Hearty Deals | 4 Comments

On November 1,  most restaurants were closed since it was a holiday.  So you can rely on hotel restaurants to be opened on holidays and Heart2Heart is so happy that Mom chose Inagiku in Shangri-la Hotel Makati!  They had a Japanese buffet which is only during holidays and weekend lunches.  I have been hearing about this from my son, Jaime, who goes with his friends, but this is our first time to try it.  It has been ongoing for a little more than a year they said.  My Mom and I were talking and we came to a conclusion that a person can only eat a certain amount of food, so no matter how much ” ALL YOU CAN EAT” there is, you can only take what your stomach will accommodate.  This is really value for money for those who can eat a lot!! 🙂  

I am posting this now so in case you have not tried it, you can try it already over the weekend!!! 

 Inagiku Buffet Lunch

Weekends and Holidays from 11:30am to 2:30pm

Price – P1,953.00 net

 

With the Shangri-la  Senses card

2 to 3 person – less 33%

4 person – less 25%

5 to 17 person – less 20%

Midas Hotel and Casino

By | Accomodations | One Comment

On our way home from the National Museum we saw the new Midas Hotel and we were curious to see how it looked, so we stopped by

midas-hotel-01.jpg

Very modern

midas-hotel-04.jpg

And wow!! I loved the lobby wall!! I only realized later on that those were Hermes bag boxes!!! It must be the boxes of the bags of the owner?  I don’t think you can buy just boxes to display! 🙂

midas-hotel-02.jpg

There was a display near the elevator of an Hermes bag which was for sale.  The guard told us that there used to be three and the other two were sold already. Hmmm…

midas-hotel-07.jpgmidas-hotel-03.jpg

The lobby from the back

midas-hotel-05.jpg

We went to see their restaurants, they apparently only have a coffeeshop and they were having a buffet at that time. I wish they had more boutique hotel type restaurants

midas-hotel-06.jpg

Photos of the room from their website, Best to try hotel rooms when they are still new 🙂
