Fitness is this thing that I’ve wanted to really put in my system for a very long time. Friends usually ask me if I hit the gym regularly, but honestly, no. I guess I’m just one of those lucky guys who does have the capacity to burn fats faster, and I am very thankful for that. As I recall the last time I hit the gym was two or three weeks ago. But now that I’m in my 30s, I know I have to be more conscious about my health and fitness.

With my kind of lifestyle, committing to being and staying fit is somehow difficult. But with the right determination and will power, very achievable. It is not just about proper scheduling and time management, but food also plays an important role in whatever kind of fitness journey I’ll be taking.

I have been a potato lover ever since I was a kid. I remember when mom used to ask us what we want for our next meal, grind pork with potatoes or a pork and potato omelet would always be on top of my list.

My mom did not have a hard time making me eat vegetables and root crops. That is why growing up, I have learned to cook dishes that include my favorite veggies.

Though potatoes have always been a staple in our house, and I have been acquainted with them ever since I was a kid, I never understood the benefits they provide for my body. I remember the saying, “Sometimes we neglect the things we already have…” when things become too frequent in our life, we tend to not even bother.
