I am Healthy, Well & Beautiful!

I am healthy, well & beautiful ! If not, then I certainly think so. So perhaps I do have healthy self-esteem. But I know I'm also my own worst critic when it comes to my state of personal health.

So I took time out over the weekend to attend Ayala's annual Health, Wellness & Beauty Fair. Visited the different booths & got to take home a lot of freebies & some information for classes I'm looking at, notably:

* A free Mary Kay facial (will be getting that on Nov22)
* Belly-dancing lessons (1K only for unlimited sessions for a month: hmm..this is interesting)

* Yoga classes (I've always been interested in this & it might be good for my scoliosis, as well as for one's state of mind)

* An offer for a body massage (flirted for an instant with the cute sales guy: "So will you be the one giving the massage?". Of course he said yes!).

* Fitflops (I'd love to have this set from Res-toe-run, though its a bit pricy at almost 3K for a pair of engineered sandals that promises to make you lose weight as you walk!)

* A free body fat analysis from Fitness First (results show that I'm 8% overweight in terms of body fat as the range for my weight,height & age is 17-24% & I'm at 32%. Hmm..I guess they will always say you need to exercise. I would say I don't look that bad at all. Several people in fact reacted when they learned I was trying to lose weight, saying I don't need to (of course that did wonders to my ego!)

* Free front-seat ticket to the Fashion Show (boutiques Guess, Mango & Nike) = realized that it does pay to know the right people! Got this from a friend & loved watching the models strut their stuff on the run way

* Free buffet dinner stub at Teatro Casino (had to decline this though as I had to attend, what else..a Toastmasters meeting! But then one has to get one's priorities straight: Toastmasters always comes first! Plus all that free food would have added to more body fat!)

It was a fun night at the Health, Wellness & Beauty Show. I guess one should always put that as a priority for oneself. Although beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and so, lo & behold, the question to ask would really be: How do you see yourself?
