The Sexy Fat

I’m not talking about those body flab. Oh definitely not. I’m not talking about the excess weight caused by un-burnt calories.  No, not that type of fat.  I’m not saying it doesn’t look good on you. It’s a matter of preference and how you carry yourself, I suppose. I’m simply saying I’m not talking about that kind of fat.

I’m talking about this dietary fat that’s making a huge comeback.  I’m talking about the fat that gives 9x of caloric energy for each gram of this amazing substance.  I’m talking about the kind of fat that magically turns every meal into a kitchen hit!

Oh yes. I’m talking about butter.  Yum. I love butter. The smell.  The soft, greasy, sexy feel on my wanting lips that feels like I just put on my lip gloss.  Haha. And the fill it gives my hungry tummy.  This lovely yellow butter.  This lovely yellow low calorie unsalted butter from grass-fed cows that proponents of bulletproof diet go gaga about.  I am not a proponent of bullet-proof diet and I don’t understand that entire concept, but there is one bulletproof diet food that I totally so in-love with.

coffee

Preparing my healthy coffee-butter blend

It’s the coffee con butter blend that’s so yummy and so filling I can totally cut breakfast with it. Or at least, my next food will be 4 hours later during my lunch break. And that’s without craving for any other food.  It naturally feels sexy.

The bullet-proof coffee on the left is fuller and has more body compared the regular coffee on the right

I was always skeptical with this bulletproof coffee.  How would a mix of almost zero calorie black coffee with 72 calorie unsalted butter fuel me for my entire morning? I found the trick that explained the experience. Our body digest fats slower than carbs and protein.  And since butter is fat, medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) kind of fat, a healthy kind of fat (I so love calling it healthy kind of fat because it really is! J), our body digest it slowly making us feel fuller for longer period of time. No wonder this bulletproof coffee is a huge hit among health-conscious sexy humans.  Lol.

Here are some bulletproof coffee recipes you might want to try.

HUMOR IS SEXY!

Coffee is super food packed with loads of antioxidants.  With just 2 calories per 1 mug of 8oz black coffee, I enjoy my fill of coffee everyday. I usually take 2- 3 cups of coffee in a day and no more than that.  I always follow the rule of moderation.

Black coffee on my breakfast.

I’ve found that adding 1 teaspoon of virgin coconut oil or adding 10 g of unsalted butter on my breakfast coffee,  gives this hot drink more flavor,  pleasurable aroma, and better body. Although the fat from butter and virgin coconut oil adds more calories to my coffee, I welcome it still.  It’s because 10 g of Anchor unsalted butter only has about 74 calories  and Cadia Virgin Coconut oil has 120 calories only per 1 tbsp.  These good fat cause your body to feel full and suppress craving for food for a longer period of time.

Coffee keeps me alert…

How I lost 4 kgs in 5 weeks

HUMOR IS SEXY!

Yes. I did it again.  I lost 4 kgs in 5 weeks.   I was 65 kgs back in February 17, 2015.  I am now down to 61.2 kgs.

I have now shed off a total of 46 lbs, almost 21 kgs already since I started my healthy weight loss journey. From 180 lbs in June 2014, I am now down to 134.64 lbs.

running

Here I am during my after-work one hour walk and run.

I didn’t think I could lose weight this fast as I only lost a little over 1 kg the month before that. Thanks to the new breakfast technique my boss and friend taught me a week after I joined our Exciting team.  The healthy weight loss is pretty amazing.

So how did I lose 4 kgs in 5 weeks?

1.  My breakfast technique.  I love coffee.  The bittersweet flavor of black coffee keeps me awake and active all…

Over scone and latte

HUMOR IS SEXY!

I have this fascination with scones since I had my first taste of this biscuit in Turbool, Brisbane City, Queensland, Australia.  Scone was one of the desserts that our picnic hosts, Liz and Colin Tune, served.  Since my first fill of this delicious flour-based dessert, I promised myself to find it in my home country and experience it again.

Staying at Paddington, this is the bus stop at Gilday Street where we waited for the bus daily going to work during my almost 1 month visit in the laid back, peaceful, and beautiful city of Brisbane.

The Coffee Bean in Burgos Circle at the Bonifacio Global City in Taguig didn’t disappoint me today.  They have this last piece of raisin scone for the day.  Haha.  With a cup of latte and 10 g of butter, the scone was pure bliss.

Where does your happiness lie?

HUMOR IS SEXY!

Everyday we look for happiness. Some of us look for happiness from someone else, from somewhere else.  The elusive pursuit of happiness has become the daily purpose of almost all of us.

kids play

Kids find happiness in every little thing they have.  My nephews playing with their puppy are happy.  My niece hugging her stuff toy dog is happy.    The boys played with a real dog.  The girl played with a stuff toy. They share the same excitement. The same happiness.

Yet adults gloat over events that happened in the past they can’t change and about the future they haven’t been.

I had my fair share of gloating too.  Ha ha. I gloat over the past and feel wary about the future.  I became depressed and hopeless. I grew to be obese and didn’t feel good about myself yet I continue feasting on unhealthy food, no-holds barred.  I would cry over a funny movie…
