Many a time have I been in relationships where fitness was never a part of the equation. In fact, the biggest reasons why I gained a ton of weight in the past is because of the relationships I was in.
In one particular relationship, the guy I was dating resented me for spending so much time at the gym… so I stopped. Looking back, it is one of the worst decisions of my life. I ended up gaining a whopping 35 pounds after that and the next guy I dated also didn't like it when I spent time in the gym than with him.
Fortunately, I discovered MySlim and ended up losing a ton of weight and then I discovered pole dancing, kettle bells and aerial hoops and was able to maintain my weight since then. During that journey, I also met an amazing man who is very supportive of my current gym-going habits - so much so that he waits for me at the gym sometimes and continues to support me even when I leave the gym covered in insane bruises sometimes.
And I think that's important: to have someone by your side who supports you in your fitness endeavours. After all, why should someone try to hinder you from staying fit?
This married couple takes things up a notch higher by working out together to spice up their relationship. Watch their story here:
Cute, huh? Do you have any fitness routines of your own with or without a partner? Share our stories with me. I love inspiring fitness stories! :)

WATCH: This Disabled National Athlete Proves Na #WalangImposible
Before I started my weight loss journey, I weighed a whole lot and didn't really have any time to work out. I truly felt like there was no hope left for me and had even begun to throw out all of the 'skinny clothes' I had been saving for 'when I got skinny again'.
Although I no longer weigh as much as I used to (huge thanks to MySlim for the help in the weight loss department!), I now have a hard time finding motivation to stay fit and keep going to the gym.
I always find myself coming up with excuses not to go, like menstrual cramps, a busy schedule, a headache or a fever… and then I watched this video, and all that changed:
Raul is the ultimate inspiration to motivate anyone to get moving and keep going. Although disabled, Raul works hard to make his dreams a reality and while weight loss and staying fit may seem like such small and meaningless goals compared to his, it doesn't change the fact that they may feel impossible every once in a while.
Raul is the epitome of MySlim's hashtag na #WalangImposible and thanks to him, I feel more motivated now than ever to reach and eventually maintain my dream weight. I can't wait to see more inspiring MySlim videos in the days to come.

MySlim: My Companion on the Road to Looking Good This Summer
When I first started taking MySlim, I lost 9 pounds in 1 month. What I haven't told you yet is that I continued taking MySlim for 2 more months after that first month. I'm not sure how many pounds I have lost anymore, but I went from a size 34 waist to a size 24 waist. Don't believe me? Here's some proof:
My face was noticeably much rounder before compared to now.
No more rolls and bilbil all over my body.
July 2015 vs October 2015
And for the first time in my life, I actually feel okay wearing a bikini.
August 2015, size 14 vs January 2016, size 2
I had already taken MySlim for three months (without exercise) when somebody pointed out that it was scary because I might gain weight again if I stop taking MySlim. Since I wanted to know the answer to that, I stopped taking it altogether.
Well, despite the holiday season, and without any diet or exercise, I am happy to announce that I didn't gain any crazy amount of weight; so you don't have to worry about gaining your weight back if you stop taking MySlim after you reach your dream weight goals.
I have been eating quite an extraordinary lot recently, though. Because I met someone… hihi :"> …and you know what they say: when you're in love like, you spend more time together and, in turn, eat more and gain weight as a result.
Sadly, I noticed one of my pairs of shorts was a bit snug yesterday, so I decided to get back on the MySlim wagon today. Since I work out now to get toned, I'm hoping the results will be good just in time for the summer season.
Will try and keep better track of my weight and measurements this time, so you can have a more accurate idea on how MySlim helped me reach my summer body goals (if it does - which I am confident it will). :)

MySlim: My Miracle - I Lost 9 Pounds in 1 Month Without Exercise!
I am pretty excited to share my latest weight loss find with you because get this: it actually works. Yup. I lost nine pounds in one month without any exercise.
Now, let me share a bit of my backstory before I introduce you to the product. I was pregnant at the beginning of this year, but then I lost my baby on February 6. Since then, I wallowed in a sea of depression and ate my feelings. And I had a lot of feelings. A few months later, I enrolled at Gold's Gym as per usual only to get sick various times making it practically impossible for me to hit the gym, no matter how badly I wanted to.
Enter the miracle worker that is MySlim. I heard about MySlim from a colleague who had written about it on WhenInManila.com. While I knew I would have no trouble drinking the capsules twice a day, the thought of LBM from the strawberry drink scared me a little... but not enough to scare me off completely.
Armed with two bottles of 30 capsules each and four bottles of the complementing strawberry drink, I began my journey to *fingers crossed* weight loss. Keep in mind that I could not work out during this entire time, so all I did was a bit of light exercise (aka walking around the mall, and to and from work).
As directed, I took the capsules twice a day. I wasn't too strict as to when I took them, though. After all, there were days when I'd skip breakfast to sleep and other days when I'd forget to take them completely. Unlike with other caffeinated fat burners I had tried in the past, I didn't feel anything different after taking MySlim. My heart didn't palpitate. I didn't feel crazily alert. And I wasn't scared to drink coffee in fear that I'd be bouncing off the walls. I'd just go about my day as normal.
Now, for the strawberry drink, it has to be said that I'm not much of a pooper. I don't know how else to put it. I just don't go to the bathroom much. At most, I'd say I do a deuce about three to five times a month. Yeah, I know. I'm a freak. As such, I was pretty excited yet scared to drink the MySlim drink because I heard I'd be spending the whole day on the toilet after drinking it.
As such, I made sure that I'd be home the whole day after I drank my first MySlim drink. Unfortunately, while I woke up pretty excited about the whole debacle, I didn't feel a thing. Yeah, nothing happened. Still, I hoped that the drink was still doing its business in my belly despite its lack of showmanship.
So, the following week, I decided to drink it again, but worried far less about it. Okay, fine, so I wasn't worried at all. In fact, I drank it the night before a big date with my boyfriend. That night, before I even slept, I hit the bathroom twice. And the following morning, I went three more times. I got a bit freaked out every time I ate that day and prayed nothing would happen, and voila! God was on my side and ensured I didn't dash to the bathroom anymore that day.
The third time I took it, I went three times in the morning, but that was about it.
The third time I took it, I went three times in the morning, but that was about it.
It is recommended to drink this drink twice a week. However, if you have a busy schedule like I do, I guess anytime you can is better than never at all.
Now, for the results... I didn't really think about the weight loss all that much. I just lived life and ate as usual. And then two weeks later, I noticed that I could slip off my formerly-tight shorts without unbuttoning them. That's when I learned I had lost six pounds. Another two weeks later, I had lost three more.
While I didn't go on a diet or exercise, it was pretty evident that the capsules had an appetite suppressant effect. As such, I definitely cut down on snacking since I didn't have any weird cravings to satisfy. If there was anything that I did crave, it was water. Stay hydrated. Doing so will also ensure that your tummy is full at all times, so you won't each a lot.
Aside from that, these babies will burn your fat with minimal exercise, so now that I'm better and sickness-less, I can't wait to buy some more and see how they will fare when matched with a solid workout routine. Hello, road to sexy. I am officially back. Thank you, MySlim. You're the bomb.
