My Intermittent Fasting Update


After watching "Hungy for Change", it reminded me of how I had that 'click' moment that I had to take care of my body. They talk of "Visualization" where you see yourself as how you want to be. The opposite kinda happened to me when I really saw the picture on the left around 2009. I said the two words that has driven me to change: "Never Again!"
Since then I've been reading up and trying out strategies to change my lifestyle. The recent ones that seemed to work well are: Blood type diet, Brown Rice and the best so far 'Intermittent Fasting'. Although IF is working wonders, I'd like to take the next step and go for juicing veg&fruits :D

Healthy and Fun Gulaman

I recently encountered Super Gulaman(Agar) while doing my grocery at Parco. It makes 1.4Liters and costs under 11php. I didn't think much of it until I started reading about it and its health benefits.

It is easy to prepare and fun to eat. It is 80% fiber and absorbs lots of water so it is filling and aids digestion.

The only drawback I found with this brand is Pulverized Sugar which accounts for the 80 Calories per serving. I might look in to the pure Gulaman Bars sold in wet markets, as those are unsweetened. But in terms of its compact/powdered nature, this one might become a mainstay in my diet and can supplement my IF(Intermittent Fasting).
