Trying to calorie deficit diet today

A balanced diet is necessary for both good nutrition and health. You are shielded from a variety of degenerative, non-communicable diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and heart disease. A healthy diet must include a variety of foods and be low in salt, sugar, saturated fats, and trans fats made in factories. As part of a balanced diet, experts from all around the world urge people to eat a range of foods. A well-balanced diet gives your body the energy it needs to function properly. Without a healthy diet, your body is more vulnerable to conditions like cancer, diabetes, and heart disease.

Here are some foods that are low in calories and can help you maintain a calorie deficit:

• Apples
• Arugula
• Asparagus
• Bell peppers
• Broccoli
• Brussels sprouts
• Cabbage
• Carrots
• Cauliflower
• Celery
• Cucumber
• Grapefruit
• Green beans
• Kale
• Leeks
• Lettuce
• Mushrooms
• Onions
• Oranges
• Papaya
• Pineapple
• Radishes
• Spinach
• Strawberries
• Tomatoes

A nutritious diet helps reduce the chance of developing chronic and dangerous conditions like heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and some types of cancer. Additionally, it can help the immune system, digestive system, bones and teeth, muscles, and even the brain. Maintaining a healthy weight and avoiding obesity are both possible with a good diet. By experimenting with new foods, a healthy diet can also increase energy and enhance life. Infants should nurse as part of a nutritious diet that begins early in life.

I have some colleagues who died just because they don't do diet.

Just trying to get connected with old bosses

Last month, I did search for old bosses and colleagues through social media. I messaged them through Facebook. It's really good to know how a former employee like me reaching out to them.

Before I proceed, let me tell you something about this:

• Verify the contract information first;
• Make sure to keep your tone professional and friendly during the interaction;
• Remind them of your past work history. Doing so, will rekindle new opportunities'
• I am sure you did some accomplishments, mention it anyway since you work together;
• Make it personal;
• If you can, setup a meeting.

I did reach out to Bernard Piedad and Nestor Antonio via Facebook. There were my bosses during my first job at STI Ilagan from 2003 until 2008.

Trying to add friend request to Piedad on Facebook, a couple for christ member, but the latter declined. For some reason, I do not know. There may be something but I don't want to speculate.

I added Antonio as well, luckily he accepted it. Last time I heard about Antonio, he was listening to the program Ang Dating Daan in 2005.

I did reach out as well to Epigemio Roxas but no response at all. Good thing he accepted my friend request. But I am happy that Elmer Cadiz is a good one.

Also, I reached out to Dolly Aguilar on Facebook but still got no reply as of this writing. Dolly was my teacher in Database Management subject during my college days. She is now a school principal.

Just call me by my name

As I embarked on my new journey in the recruitment processing industry, I had the pleasure of meeting individuals who shared my passion for speaking Spanish. Among them were two young ladies who, like myself, were newcomers to the industry.

In Filipino work culture, there's a sense of familial camaraderie where colleagues often address each other with affectionate titles rather than by their names. For instance, older women may be called "mother," older men "father," and so on.

During my time in Ortigas Center, we affectionately referred to one of our colleagues as "daddy." May he rest in peace. Now, in my current workplace in Eastwood, these two young ladies affectionately call me "mama," despite my insistence otherwise.

Personally, I prefer to be addressed by my name alone—simply Gerry. Being called "mama" is something I cannot embrace, as it holds a sacred place reserved for one person—my mother. On this note, I extend warm wishes to all mothers across the universe on this Mother's Day.

Yes to charter change: wakasan ang kahirapan at kurapsiyon

GUSTO mo bang MAKATULONG na WAKASAN na ang KAHIRAPAN at KORUPSYON bilang ORDINARYONG MAMAMAYAN?

As a concerned citizen, do you aspire to contribute to the alleviation or reduction of poverty and corruption within our nation?

If your answer is affirmative, we invite you to join us in advocating for constitutional reforms through the three-point agenda proposed by the CoRRECT Movement. Let's work together to spread awareness of the imperative need for these reforms.

1. REMOVAL of ECONOMIC PROVISIONS in the CONSTITUTION. Put the regulations, provisions, restrictions and other policies needed out of the Constitution into the REGIONAL PARLIAMENT LEGISLATION.

Ito ang unang susi sa pagwakas ng KAHIRAPAN at KAWALAN ng TRABAHO.
Ang pagiging bukas na ekonomiya ang syang ginawa ng SINGAPORE, CHINA, TAIWAN, at VIETNAM, MALAYSIA para mapaunlad ang kanilang bansa.

2. SHIFT to PARLIAMENTARY government system at levels of government (national, regional, local) with reference to Germany, Switzerland, Singapore, Canada and Australia.

Ito ang unang susi para wakasan ang KORUPSYON at kung paano naging mas MAY DISIPLINA ang mga tao at sumusunod sila sa batas...

3. ADAPT EVOLVING FEDERALISM again with reference to Germany, Switzerland, Canada and Australia and UK.

Ito ang unang hakbang para mapalago ang mga PROBINSYA at ibalik ang METRO MANILA sa dati nitong ganda at kawalan ng trapiko.

Ating hikayatin lahat ng nga mga tao sa PILIPINAS na magingay, pagusapan ang CONSTITUTIONAL REFORMS at ang THREE POINT AGENDA ng CoRRECT Movement para magkaroon na ng TUNAY na PAGBABAGO sa PILIPINAS.

It's time to verify

When it comes to social media, we are constantly bombarded with news and information. But not all of it is true! To verify the accuracy of news on social media, there are a few things you can do.

Is it credible?

Firstly, when evaluating an article, it's essential to check the credibility of the source. Reliable sources typically have a track record of accuracy and integrity, so it's wise to verify the reputation of the publication or author. If there are doubts about the source's reliability, it's advisable to cross-check the information with other reputable sources to ensure its accuracy and credibility.

Look for supporting evidence

Secondly, look for supporting evidence or quotes within the article that corroborate its claims. Reliable articles often include references to studies, expert opinions, or official statements that lend credibility to the information presented. By examining the supporting evidence, readers can better assess the validity of the article's claims and make informed judgments about its accuracy.

Your analytical skills

Thirdly, analyze the writing style of the article. Sensational phrases, extreme viewpoints, or overly biased language may indicate that the article is more focused on eliciting an emotional response than presenting factual information. It's essential to approach such articles with caution and critically evaluate the content to separate fact from opinion or speculation.

Verify its acuracy

Lastly, before sharing an article on social media or other platforms, take the time to conduct additional research to verify its accuracy. By independently verifying the information through reputable sources or fact-checking websites, you can help prevent the spread of misinformation and promote authentic and genuine news stories to your audience. Taking these steps can contribute to a more informed and discerning online community.

Yes to charter change: Parliamentary System

Article 6 & 7 - Form of Government

 

REFORM the current lousy PRESIDENTIAL Structure to the superior PARLIAMENTARY System
WHY PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM?

• MUCH LESSER CORRUPTION - Top 10 for the LEAST CORRUPT in the Global Corruption index all operate under PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM;
• SAVINGS of 400 to 500 BILLION PESOS ANNUALLY potentially due to REDUCTION in CORRUPTION;
• CHEAPER elections: for the candidates and the electorate, less elections being bought by oligarchs;
• YEARLY SAVINGS of 30 BILLION PESOS potentially due to cheaper and less elections;
• COST of RUNNING a GOVERNMENT is very much(maybe 50%) lower in PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM since the EXECUTIVE and LEGISLATIVE branches are fused;
• VOTE on IDEAS not personalities: LESS DYNASTIES;
• COMPETITION based on POLICIES : LESS POPULARITY contests / electorate forced to think and prioritize when voting;
• FASTER ELECTIONS: leads to cheaper elections which again reduces the risk of elections being bought by monopoly seekers / rent seekers/ oligarchs;
• MINORITY IDEAS get a turn in the spotlight : in a presidential system, mostly ideas backed by the political elite or pushed for by deep pockets get discussed;
• No more "OUST (INSERT NAME HERE)" shenanigans: if the leader you don't like has truly lost favor with the electorate, a simple NO CONFIDENCE VOTE can oust that person;
• LESS EXTREMISM: In parliamentary systems, oftentimes no one single party gets to rule outright. This pushes them to form coalitions. This usually ensures that extremist parties don't dominate;
• INTRAPARTY DISCIPLINE: there are competing egos in every party and this ensures the ones who lead parties truly know their stuff and have internal fortitude;
• EASE OF DOING BUSINESS will greatly improve especially if handled by REGIONAL PARLIAMENTS;
• TERM LIMITS and POLITICAL DYNASTIES will be IRRELEVANT;
• PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM ang sagot natin sa KORUPSYON, POLITICAL DYNASTIES, BALIMBINGAN, WEAK POLITICAL PARTIES, MAHAL NA ELEKSYON, VOTE BUYING, POLITICAL GRANDSTANDING at PERSONALITY BASED POLITICS;
• PHILIPPINES should shift to PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM using these countries as references (GERMANY, SWITZERLAND, UK, SINGAPORE, JAPAN, AUSTRALIA, CANADA, MALAYSIA) NOW na!

#YEStoConstitutionalConvention
#YEStoConstituentAssembly

SHIFTING to FEDERAL PARLIAMENTARY POLITICAL SYSTEM (now unitary presidential)
and ADAPTING a MORE OPEN MARKET ECONOMY by REMOVING all ECONOMIC PROVISIONS in the Constitution (now top 3 most restrictive economy in the world)
are the KEY INITIAL STEPS in UNTANGLING the BUREAUCRATIC MESS from the top to bottom, left and right, that has burdened our COUNTRY for a very long time now.

Yes to charter change: evolving federalism

EVOLVING FEDERALISM

ARTICLE 10: Structure of TERRITORIAL Administration - National and Local Government

REFORM to or adapt EVOLVING FEDERALISM or REGION BASED DECENTRALIZATION from the current CENTRALIZED and UNITARY STRUCTURE.

For FEDERALISM to work in the Philippines, we need it to be EVOLVING and we need to first REMOVE ALL ECONOMIC PROVISIONS in the CONSTITUTION and setup a PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM of government at all levels.

WHY EVOLVING FEDERALISM?
Evolving federalism refers to the decentralization of power and decision-making from the central government to regional or local authorities.
Read more: https://correctphilippines.org/evolving_federalism/

DECONGESTION of MAJOR URBAN CENTERS:
Decentralization can lead to the development of new urban centers and the growth of smaller towns and cities, reducing the burden on major urban centers. This can help to ease congestion, reduce pollution, and improve the quality of life in these areas.

REGIONAL RESPONSIBILITY: Decentralization can also empower regional or local authorities to take greater responsibility for their own development, including infrastructure, education, health, and social services. This can help to ensure that resources are distributed more equitably across different regions, reducing disparities and promoting social cohesion.

REGIONAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT: Decentralization can also lead to the development of regional economies, with local authorities able to tailor policies and programs to the specific needs of their regions. This can promote entrepreneurship, innovation, and competitiveness, driving economic growth and job creation.

REGIONAL CULTURE and LANGUAGE ENRICHMENT: Decentralization can also help to preserve and promote regional cultures and languages, which may be threatened by globalization and centralization. By empowering regional authorities to take greater responsibility for cultural and linguistic policies, decentralization can help to ensure that diverse cultural and linguistic traditions are valued and celebrated.

Setting up "Evolving Federalism" means that right upon RATIFICATION of such a change, the Philippines will, at that point, STILL BE UNITARY.

Yup, we will still be unitary ON DAY ONE after ratification.

All that will happen is that the configuration parameters of the structure of territorial administration will be altered so that our territorial administration will mimic the situation of Spain right after their adoption of the 1978 Constitution, which is:

1. adjacent provinces are to group themselves together based on similar language/ethnicity/culture.
2. the concept of "independent cities" will be removed so that rich and highly urbanized cities will essentially be contributing to their province and region in general.
3. the regions (formed by the joining of similar provinces) will be given the ability to form their own governing bodies based on the parliamentary system.

Peculiar to the Philippines, this will also be adopted:

• All regions who are economically self-sufficient can become Federated Regions, and will help contribute funds to the Federal Government, part of which will also help the less-developed regions.
• All regions who are NOT YET economically self-sufficient will automatically become Federal Territories, essentially under Federal Government supervision and assistance.
• The National Capital Region will NOT become an autonomous community but will instead be directly under the Federal Government. It will be called the Federal Capital Territory of Metropolitan Manila. This "territory" will be the key "funding source" of the National Government.
