Karen’s Beauty Post # 6: All Firsts: Sample Room VIP Experience – Part 1

Hello!  It’s been quite a long time since my last post (Yes, 8 days is quite long for me!).  Been crazily busy over the past weeks due to accounting workloads, photoshoots and church activities.  And I’m loving it!  

It was said that you should love your work and your work will love you back… I guess it’s true.  Though tired and exhausted at times, I thank God because He kept me busy and productive.  And what adds more to the happiness is that I did these things with my husband.  It's indeed true that you'll love doing things the more if you're doing it with the one that you love the most. (insert "awwwwwww" here)

Anyway, let me share to you my first experience as a Sample Room VIP member and also my Glamourbox first online shopping story.

Karen’s Journey to 140: Post # 1: Photojog with the Husband at SM By the Bay

I used to live my teenage years and 20s between 110 to 120 lbs.  I play basketball, dance, run, and EAT A LOT. 

My eating habits worsened since I started boarding and reviewing for my CPA Licensure Exam.  I don’t play basketball that much, I don’t dance anymore, I also don’t run that often, but I STILL EAT A LOT.  I munch on anything that I like to munch on while studying.  Brain food, you know. 

But that didn’t stop.  I loved to eat more when I started to write food blogs and restaurant reviews.  I did this as my past time and did this to compensate for the stress that I have at work.  I used to go to places each month, which means more food to discover and explore. 

That went on until now.  Last Sunday I did my weigh in.  The digits that I saw from the scale broke my heart… and I cried, literally.  I now weigh 186 lbs.

Enough with the crying.  I have to do something.
