Hello my Dears!

I haven’t written here for several weeks because I have been very busy these days. I am so happy because I have found a new job! Well I work in the library again, but this one is better for me. New friends, new people, new place, new experience… Great I think! I was so busy with my job that I didn’t have time to think about other things like calories. Until now. Yesterday I had an appointment with a new nutritionist. We have been talking a little bit about my eating habits, weight and about new diet… The second appointment will be on the next Wednesday. Next time I will write more about this meeting. Take care and see you soon!

Hello!

I have been surfing through the Internet for a while trying to find meaningful information about companies and the jobs that they offer… Accidentally I have found very interesting Calorie Calculator! It shows how many calories you burned while participating in some type of exercise or activity. For example, I have never thought that brushing teeth burns 13.68 calories per 3 minutes for a 240-pound person… Yes, dears, it is really difficult to admit that I have gained weight! I hate this!!! I have never been over around 240. I need to burn calories immediately… And I will do it.

Well, I was talking about the calorie calculator. I want to show you some interesting statistics:

• Watching TV (10 minutes) – 19.2 calories
• Washing the dishes (10 minutes) – 40.8 calories
• Taking a stroll (10 minutes) – 55.2 calories
• Ironing (10 minutes) – 40.8 calories
• Playing cards ( 10 minutes) – 31.2 calories
• Aerobics (10 minutes) – 108 calories
• Brisk walking, with the dog (10 minutes) – 79.2 calories
• Dancing (10 minutes) – 91.2 calories.

Gosh, if I took these all activities, then I would burn 466 calories! Amazing! All I need to do is to live more active life. That’s all for today! Goodbye!

Hello! First thing I want to say is that I decided to quit the gym and BURN CALORIES AT HOME NOW! You may ask me, why I decided to do it? Well, I have been there two times this week… I can’t tolerate when all people are staring at me in the gym… It’s really annoying and I feel very confused. That’s why I came to this decision. I think I can find another effective way to lose my weight.

So what I’m going to do now? I thought about it a lot. Well, I need to find more information about various methods of burning calories… I think I should read more about different weight loss programs. That’s my plan for today Well, I must go now Dear Readers. See you next time!

Good evening… I’m so disappointed in myself… Today I bought a new scale (the old one has broken down…). Dear Readers, I feel very shame.  I have put on almost 3 pounds! Gosh, all my efforts have failed after one week! It can’t be worse, than this… Everything I need to start from the beginning. Well, I can’t give up, because I have promised to myself. I must be a strong woman. I need to think about everything right now.

It’s been a month since I started to write my blog. What have I done since then?

1. I haven’t eaten any hamburger (I am very proud of myself for this).

2. I have joined the gym (Well, I have been there only three times…).

3. I have gone on the Watermelon diet (…For the three days. What a shame…).

To sum up, the results aren’t very good. I think I put too little efforts in burning calories. Dear Readers, I need to change something radically in my life! But how to do it?

The first thing I can do is to go to the gym tomorrow. Then I need to continue my Watermelon diet. Or I could find more information about burning calories and choose another diet plan… Well, I’m too tired to think about it now. I need to relax… Goodnight Everyone! See you next time!

Dear Readers, as I promised to You, today my post will be about Italian methods of burning calories and a variety of Italian traditional meals.

As you know, Italian food is unique amongst world cuisines because it has birthed two international meals – pasta and pizza.

First of all, let’s talk a bit about pasta – one of the traditional Italian foods. Dear Readers, did you know that Italian pasta has about 600 different varieties and shapes? Well, I have the opportunity to taste some different Italian pastas and it was so delicious! Moreover, Italian pasta doesn’t contain any fat, sugar and starch! I think it’s a good choice to eat this meal when you are burning calories. When I have the time, I will try to make it myself!

Well, I have to admit that Italian pizzas look so delicious… Margherita, Capricciosa, Verrazano, Urbana… I have never eaten so good and tasty pizzas in all my life!!! But my friend said that pizza has a lot of calories and isn’t very healthy… After these words I am afraid of my weight situation … Maybe I have put on weight after this wonderful trip?

Finally I want to say that during my trip I haven’t seen any obese Italian. Maybe different culture and traditions play a big role in our life…

Hello my Dear Readers! I had a wonderful week in Italy!!! This country absolutely entranced me! I saw so many amazing and interesting places which have left an indelible impression on my mind… I am very satisfied with my journey so I’m going to tell you about Italy in detail.

Dear Readers, Did you know that Rome is the most visited city in the world? Well, last week I had the opportunity to see it for myself! So many tourists from all over the world come there to see historical monuments, buildings, and sculptures.

Together with my friend, I visited Colosseum (the Flavian Amphitheater), one of the most impressive historical buildings of the Roman Empire, built by Emperor Vespasian and his son Titus in 80 A.D. This architectural monument is so huge… I can’t even imagine how it was built? Colosseum you can see in the first photo.

I saw so many impressive monuments and places in Italy that I could write about it all day. The most beautiful place for me was The Cupola of St Peter’s Basilica. My Dears, can you imagine that I climbed 300 stairs up to The Cupola? After that I was so exhausted! I think that climbing the stairs is one of the effective ways in burning calories…

Two days we spent in Venice, one of the romantic cities in all over the world. Dear Readers, Venice is really beautiful city! We were so enchanted by this place… Riding in a gondola at evening, walking the beautiful streets – I will never forget these wonderful days…

The next time I will talk a little bit about Italian methods of burning calories and a variety of Italian traditional meals.

P.S. Here are some beautiful photos from Italy.
