I have to admit I sometimes lose motivation - 10lbs in a month? That’s too slow. I was targeting at least 20. I just have to compete with my perfectionist self and remind myself that 10lbs in a month until November will be 40lbs - and I can finally be nice in Christmas family portraits.

So there.
Aggie, don’t reach out for the coke.
Aggie, as Dora would say, just keep swimming.

My mother used all Johnson’s baby products on her four kids and honestly, up to now, I still use their powder and cologne. I love their Sleep Care line - the lavender lotion and powder. Their consumer products are very gentle on my skin - I have sensitive skin, one that breaks out, reddens and tightens almost easily when exposed to harsh chemicals so J&J baby products are perfect for me.

Naturally, when I had my own kids, I used the same products too. I just automatically associate the J&J smell with newborn babies and clean kids Matthew is very very used to J&J products, if he uses another cologne, I feel it’s not him anymore.

Martha’s skin chemistry is not really compatible with J&J bath products. Since it is mild and Martha needs strong antibacterial shampoo and soap to control her odor and sweat, I switched brands. I still use the powder and cologne on her though.

I love J&J.
I cant imagine my life without it.

My kids are not really big eaters but they have voracious appetites - they eat all the time, but are like goats, they graze a lot So meal planning is hard. I want to make sure we maximize our food intake health-wise but do not spoil food (Last week, we always had some rice spoiled. Isat kalahating gatang lang un ha ~ for the whole day!)

The tricky part here is, what to cook for all of us? I love eggplants and veggies but the kids are not that enthusiastic on this. Martha loves tomato-based dishes (afritada and menudo) while Matthew loves anything with soup (sinigang, tinola, crab and corn). Since we have cut back so much on grocery I can now afford to get some pork twice or thrice a week for us.

Im going to play around a little this week and test the waters if this will work for us.

Monday: Menudo
Tuesday: Chicken Sopas, Porksteak
Wednesday: LEFTOVERS day (Eat what was leftover food from the previous days), have Fried Chicken on hand for backup
Thursday: Lumpiang Shanghai, Crab and Corn Soup
Friday: Carry over food from Thursday, Porkchop (Leftover from Porksteak)

Let us see if I can get pictures of the food we have, our dining area is a bit dim I would need compact flash for the SLR.

A Custom Trade Show Exhibit like the one I went to takes a lot of time, money and investment for suppliers. You need to make sure the trade show booths you have showcase your products very well and really make an awesome presentation that can best other booths. That is why there are customized trade show booth designs for food products!
