Kadalasan na naitatanong sa
akin ay bakit daw hindi ako tumataba? First of all, I used to have good
body metabolism during my teen years up to 20’s, even to early 30’s. Ang
bilis ko mag-burn ng calories, I easily produced sweats in simple work out or
just by being in a continued active minutes. Towards to my mid-30’s, I
accustomed myself to natural diet thru eating less fats, red meats, processed
foods and more fiber from veggies and bread. I don’t diet religiously or
by the book, I just make myself active and do not eat excessively. It’s
like I’m not a fan of sweet not because I am diabetic but it’s because I don’t
like to become. Today I practice “less quantity-more quality”
foods.
To top it all,
it is really the excess amount of the foods we eat that makes our size. When taking meals, maybe you don’t really
need to have another plate – you can start from here. Then later, maybe you don’t need to take rice
three meals a day, or make it less rice-more dish. And then consider the quality really
matters. Totoo, ang sarap kumain especially
in the fine-dine in restaurants, the taste of the foods validates our taste
bud, it makes our craving completed and this tempts us. What did I do to get rid of the temps? By putting on my mind that I don’t need to
eat all these foods once I tasted. I
always stick to my vocabulary that once means once.

Another most
frequent question that I receive is why I do not get crazy over the modern and
high tech gadgets. Bakit daw ayaw ko sumunod sa uso, bakit hind ako
naeenganya? For one thing, it is not my choice, I am not interested on
it. How I keep to stick on my choice is because I am not techie on the
first place, I find it difficult to learn different apps and enjoy the
games. I am a bit old school. Basic features of mobile are enough
for me – that’s all and I appreciate this. I am very simple person. It’s not only in gadgets, I am not fan of
things that I consider lavishness. I don’t
wear perfume, signature shirts and shoes are not big thing for me, vehicle is
not my thing. Why I can do these, it’s
simply I chose to be simple.

Natanong din ako
na bakit daw hindi ako nape-pressure sa pagpo-provide sa family. When my mother was still living, I made her
understand how much I can send from my earnings in a month, and I think this
made my family back home to budget to make ends meet. Bihirang nangyari, mabibilang sa daliri, yung
nakatanggap ako ng message that telling me I need send again, the rest I send
remittance once in a month on a regular basis.
I am a person
who follow budget. I don’t go beyond my
means. If I need something, I have to
save for it and when I have the enough amount, then I will buy it. Sometimes kinakapos din ako na need ko
manghiram., sometime I do have bad purchases, nagiging magastos din ako peroI
make sure na babawiin ko on my next earning whatever lost I made.

Bakit daw palagi
o kadalasan ok lang sa akin ang mga bagay-bagay? This question has been
asked to me more than enough to say many times. Whenever I was asked
about something not so good that happened to me, my responses are “it’s ok”,
“I’m fine“, “no problem”, “not big deal”, “never mind”. Instances like
someone disappointed me, I did not receive what I wanted, an important thing is
lost; in all these circumstances, I will say my answer “it’s ok”.
It is easy for me to let them
go. Ang bilis ko ma-convince, ma-accept at baliwalaain na lang, not
necessarily forget them. There are things that take me quite long to get
over but it will not take me more times to move on. Why is that so easy
for me is because I don’t like to keep extra baggage. I am a believer of
a dictum that says everything is happening for reasons. If it is not meant for
me, so be it. Kung hindi ukol hindi bubukol as the saying says. If I did not get what I want, maybe it is a
blessing in disguise to not make it happen.
If someone does something bad to me, I will just think it’s not my fault
and it’s not me who has the burden.
