RANTING AND BEYOND

Here he goes again….

I was surprised when I checked Sprint’s website. Prices of some of their PDA phones when down.

The best selling Blackberry Curve 8330′s new price is now $49.99 after a $100 mail in rebate from $199 (also includes $100 MIR).

Palm Centro’s price went down to $49.99 from $79.99 after a $100 MIR.

International phones like the Samsung ACE and the Blackberry 8830 World Edition’s prices are now made affordable.

This is good news for Sprint customers. For a 2 year agreement, they will be able to avail of these PDA phones and match it with the cheapest and convenient individual and family plans with data.

Are these price changes in preparation for Palm Pre’s launch this June 6? The Pre is a web OS capable PDA phone that everyone is waiting for.

Im returning to work from my 3 days sick leave. Actually It’s more of getting sick with work. Get it?

Everything is the same, shifts, faces, people and all. I hate it. I want something new. I want challenge, new environment, new people. How will I start doing that? Let’s find out in the next few days.

In addition to that I was reprimanded by my boss because I came back to work disoriented, she said I need to get back to my senses..that we have pull up our metrics… yada-yada. The word is not disoriention…it’s ‘exhaustion’.

After I delivered my son Jaiden, I never regained my pre-pregnancy weight. I was around 110 lbs before I got pregnant. I was happy with my body then.

Now Im 132 lbs and that’s pretty heavy. I still have that post pregnancy flab on my midsection that does not really do me any good especially when I want to shop for new clothes. I don’t fit in my old dresses anymore, so instead of getting depressed, I gave ‘em all away.

My statistics blew up to 33″,35″,39″, upper arm circumference to 12″.

I’ve tried dieting, exercising and I also took in Chinese diet pills. But with continuous stress on my job, I couldn’t keep up. I keep on gaining weight.

I went to see a doctor and he recommended Orlistat. It’s a diet pill that doesn’t suppress appetite but instead stops absorption of fat. I take in 3 capsules a day with meals, but I can skip a dose if the meal does not contain too much fat.

The caps are also pretty expensive especially if you will complete the 3 doses. I guess diet pills are made to be expensive. I have been taking it in for 4 days now.

There’s nothing to worry about in terms of side effects. Ive noticed more frequent, oily bowel movements. No diarrhea or pains whatsoever. The doc said I just have to take in my vitamins daily because the pill prevents absorption of fat, hence it will also hinder absorption of fat soluble vitamins.

My target is to lose 2 lbs a week. Starting today, no rice policy, I’ll have bread and bananas instead to reduce my carbo intake. No more fatty foods, but will have lean meat and fish. More on veggies and fruits. No more iced teas and sodas, will take in water instead.

I will update this blog category every Sundays.

Weight: 132lbs

When there are sad endings, we get frustrated and angry. We feel that we cannot move on, and we get stuck to where we are right at that moment.

For me, when you have exhausted all efforts to fight for what you want and still turns out that it’s not for you…then it is not meant to be yours. However, life has to go on. I will still find happiness in other things. Happiness for me dwells on what I have, not on what I can’t have.

There will always be happiness after sad endings. Endings are the beginnings of wonderful things to come.

I am thankful for what I have experienced, may it be happy or sad, but Im moving forward now…

There will be rainbow after the rain…. I will be happy.
