New Year and a New Route

I am on my second cycle on the pill. The period was light and short but was on time. Light cramps struck me but still was manageable.


But I am not gonna be on the pill for too long, two month would do (who knows). I like the effect of the pill that I am on. Hunger pangs visits me less frequently. There is an obvious decline with my waistline. What I could not understand is my weight stayed the same. I have been on a low carb diet and that means almost no rice, white bread and white pasta for a month. I only had 3 cups of rice for the whole month ( i could only surmise).


So I did a little research about water retention. I maybe losing fat but not water. I stumbled upon Dandelion tea. Madonna and Gwyneth drink this for faster metabolism and to prevent water retention. It is very good for the liver too.


The decision of living a healthier lifestlye came to me when I realized last month that I was not able to get my period without any meds. Since I've got PCOS, it is important to lower may sugar intake. Difficult as it may sound, I was able to conquer my chocolate addiction. As a matter of fact, a bar of Snickers has been sitting in my fridge for a month now. The rice part was so difficult over the holidays. Parties were all over and I had managed it. But one SINIGANG na BABOY ruined it. Anyway, that was the last time I could remember myself eating one full meal.

Short Short Hair

Someone said I had finally made the best decision of my life: to get a short hair cut. I finally did something with my hair after months of decision making. It was only my mom who didn't like it. Since I was young kid, I have had long hair and this was the first time she saw me with a hair like this. Nonetheless, everybody adored me with my new hair saying I was like 5 years younger. Which is true.

I hope I could find a way to post it here. The heck to my sync cable for phone, I could not find it. I hope I can when I get home.

Holidays are Just Around the Corner

Wheww!!! It is getting colder and colder each morning and waking up is a hard thing to do. 19 more days and it is the big day. Time flies so fast and one morning all these preps for Xmas are over. I like anticipating the holidays not the days themselves because I know on that day, it is gonna be a long wait again. But I couldn't agree more with hubby, he was so right when he told me last January that "it is gonna be Xmas again soon".

What has Tilted Uterus got to do with it?

The answer is NADA. Tilted uterus is also locally termed us "mababang matris."

Having a tilted or retroverted uterus has nothing do with difficulty in becoming pregnant or miscarrying. In the Philippines, we have what we call "batak" or some kind of an upward massage on a woman's tummy. When I had it, it was painful. I could feel the that the old woman who did it was actually touching my ovary from the outside. Imagine the pressure she was putting on my tummy. This "hilot" should lift the uterus for high chances of conception.

It took several months before I got pregnant which I ended up miscarrying and my tilted uterus is still a tilted uterus.
