How to lose weight after pregnancy

Hi, Lucy! 

I have always admired your beauty and slim figure. I would like to know how you managed to keep your svelte figure even after your pregnancy. Did you eat certain foods only when you were pregnant?

No, when I was pregnant with Juliana, I ate everything I wanted! I would have been oh so sad had I deprived myself of ice cream, pizza, hotdog, rice, milk, and chicharon bulaklak! If I indulge today, I will make it a point to eat lesser calories the following day. No hard and fast rules, I just basically listen to my body and I make sure I do not put myself in a state of denial when I feel that I am gaining weight. Long before others notice a weight gain, you will know it first because you know your body best. Do not allow things to get out of hand and address it immediately. It is always easier to work on losing two pounds than trying to shave off 20.

Acne Solution
Dear Mary,


I have read testimonies regarding the product Proactiv Solution, which is used by showbiz people like actor Luis Alandy. I want to try it to solve my perennial acne problem. I’m only 19 years old, do you think it will work for me?

I would rather recommend going to a dermatologist than using a cream that has been advertised by personalities. A good derma is Dr. Filomena Montinola who holds clinic at the Makati Medical Center. There’s also Dr. Sylvia Jacinto whose clinic is at 1311 Batangas St., Makati City with telephone number 894-3952,

Fashion Advice To The Short-Waisted
Dear Tingting,


I’m always in a fashion dilemma because of my short waist. What should I wear to hide this flaw?

Melba


Try wearing long jackets or sweaters to make your waist appear long. Or you can tuck your shirt into your skirt or pants and wear a vest or tunic.
