I am constantly reminding myself that having a wedding is not the end of a big project, it is a beginning of a much bigger plan for our future. As a wife and a mother I have to think of being healthy, getting healthy and staying healthy; not only for myself but for my “new” family and our life together.
As far as I begin to understand things, my mother and my grandmother had taught me that natural healing or herbal healing is the best way to go. Unlike the western medications, the Chinese believe that natural healing or natural supplements work best and do well for the body without harming the body or removing the good stuff that the body needs.

When one is younger they don’t notice how smooth and taut their skin is, but when they are getting older, like I am, well lets just say I wish I could have done more for my skin. Of course some people choose certain specific brands but for myself after many years of trying different things, I prefer the au natural ingredients.
It is pretty simple why I choose au natural moisturizing body lotions or soaps and it’s because they use the finest ingredients with practically no side effects that I have ever encountered. Simple Scents is for every bride who wants to look radiant with skin they can be proud of. After all, your bridal gown is going to be showing some skin and you definitely don’t want hydrated or rough looking skin.
For someone who lives with wicked winter and humid summer, i need a body lotion that not only moisturizes but really hydrate my skin. You will understand what I mean, if you ever see my knees - they are so rough without good body lotion, that touching it may even cut your skin. Smelling good is what all brides/women wantm but looking absolutely smooth and silky in your wedding gown is also a must. Don’t deprive your skin of this wonderful and luxurious body lotion that comes in many scents for you to choose from. Whether you want to smell like the Ocean Beach or lavender or just want to smell fresh and sweet, check out Australia’s Simple Scents - they are not expensive either.

I don’t know about other women out there but I became really complacent lately, even to the extent of being lazy, and would eat just about anything and not worry about how much weight I put on or how I looked once the spouse and I became comfortable with each other. My only consolation is that I don’t like fried food or sweets, so desserts or junk food is pretty much out. But we all know that a lot of us are so used to fried food, and the greasier the better.
You and I want to fit into our wedding dresses though right? Yes, you do! So where does one start? A no food diet? A vegetable diet? Or a fruit diet? Or some even go for the carb diet? Yes, everyone swears up and down and high and low that their diet works. But a diet that works for someone else may not work for you, so a little research is necessary, that is where Diet Review comes in, it’s the place to go to for honest reviews to help you decide whether Food Network Chef Ellie Krieger’s healthy living, customized plans are suitable for you. Or maybe exercising the way Denise Austin believes in is your way of fitting into that dream wedding dress of yours. Don’t forget the Duke Diet that helps you to think positively and encourages only a healthy approach towards weight loss. Free diet evaluation and information at your finger tips. So if you wanna get into your wedding dress you now know where to find the right diet.

Who doesn’t want to look their best on their wedding day? After all, you only have 1 wedding in your lifetime (that is what we all hope). I’m no different from any other woman in the world and even though I’m having my wedding after having a child, it is still one of the most important days in my life. Besides the photography and the wedding ceremony and the reception that must turn out perfect, the bride (yours truly) must also look vibrant and confident.
What could be better than to check out a Los Angeles non surgical face lifts, right? I know, I know, the man is gonna say I love you just the way you are, but you have to take charge this moment because this is YOUR day after all. No one looks at the groom, everyone’s eyes are on the bride. So as a bride-to-be you can imagine the stress I am facing and to be able to deliver, why not choose an affordable and absolutely painless (in my humble opinion) procedure to boost that already worn and stressed out brides confidence. It reduces fine lines and wrinkles and makes you look absolutely radiant for your big day and all those wonderful photos you will want to hand down for the rest of your life. Take charge of your life, take charge of that special day.

Look what i found..?? more gowns to choose from..! awesome..!! more choices.. before i finally decide what i want to wear. Prices are really cool too. At $500 .. i don’t think anywhere is cheaper than this. Actually, i find it amazing.. that i have so many choices… back home.. the bridal shops get upset with you .. if you so much as decide to rent instead of buying. I’m gonna check out Tan Yoong from back home, and compare prices for you to see .. in my next stop. In the meantime, I also found these awesome wigs for my bachelorette party.

Can you imagine everyone wearing a wig like that for your bachelorette party.. ?? how fun is that..??

The clock is ticking.. and I know i don’t really have much time left before the final fitting for the wedding dress. Are you in a panic mode like I am now..?? Stressed..?? well.. don’t be .. you already have a lot on your plate.. and your mind.. i know. The man is a YES man currently.. and everything you ask him.. he just say “Yes, dear” and I know that can be really frustrating.
So yes.. you wanna make sure you can fit into your wedding dress. Afterall, you want the dress and the wedding to be perfect right..? So now is the time.. where we have to watch what we eat right..? Yes..!! right now..!! not tomorrow.. nor after this weekend.. but right now. Well.. don’t starve yourself though… get into a routine.. on a food plan .. that works well with you .. afterall, eating health is always the way to go right.
If you are anything like me, you need a gym to do your workout at least twice a week. Working those flabby arms.. or flabby thighs.. and keeping fit and working on those stamina is important. For the wedding takes a few days.. and a whole day of activities. Ok.. I better start working on getting into my wedding dress now.

What a pretty evening gown eh..? This color is really pretty.. not red or pink.. but light maroon in color. Plus look at all the sequins, they are really nice .. not too much .. and not too little. I will try and take a picture of it .. from the front. It was much too windy yesterday.. i didn’t wanna go out.. and take a picture in the wind. The evening gown is good even for prom dresses.. and not just weddings. At $500 .. i think it is definitely a lot cheaper than in Asia.
