Green Smoothie?

At first, I didn't like how it tasted. It tasted bitter until I found a recipe that made it taste way better. Wheat grass smoothie helps clean your liver and kidneys. The most amazing part is that it also helps in clearing your skin.  Here's the recipe:

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 medium orange, peeled and halved
  • 1 medium apple, quartered
  • 4 strawberries, fresh or frozen
  • 1 scoop of wheat grass
  • 1 cup ice cubes

You can get wheat grass powder from GNC or any other supplement shop.



Have a peaceful weekend

Happy weekend everyone! Take a break from everything, relax after a long week, and try some yoga poses. This weekend "challenge yourself a bit"!

Fendi - Spring 2013 Bags

We loveed Fendi's most recent show. The entire collection was very different and unexpected from the 87 year-old fashion house especially the bags. The line had a futuristic spin to it and carried many fun colors and modern shapes.

Nike+ FuelBand Review

I have been using Nike+ FuelBand for almost a month now and I really found out that it is one of the best pedometers I have ever used. I have noticed that it is more accurate than other pedometers I have used in the past. Nike+ FuelBand has many features. It helps you track your fuel, steps, time, and most importantly the calories you've burnt during the day. I love it and I cant take the band off! It has been motivating me to push myself harder at the gym! If you are a fitness junkie I recommend you go and purchase it from http://store.nike.com/us/en_us/?l=shop,pdp,ctr-inline/cid-1/pgid-646600 as it works better if you are an active person.

Bizarre story of the week: "Face-kini"?

Apparently the new trend that is hitting the beaches in China is.. wait for it.. wait... "FACE-KINI". It's basically a cover-up for your face whenever you decide to go for a swim in the summer and don't get me wrong wanting to protect our skin is a great thing specially when you live in Dubai's brutal weather but would you really go to that extreme? I mean you can always pile on sunscreen

Worst and Best food!!!

x Fried desserts
Full of sugar, fat, and they are high up on the list of worst food!


Sweet Potatoes
They are full of fiber, Vitamin C, and are considered to be one of the best fruits. They are sweet yet so healthy!

x Canned soups
They are just full of salt enough said!

Crisp breads
You can have crisp breads with cheese or you can drizzle some honey and cinnamon on top.



x Strawberry cheesecake icecream
Third of a day's cholesterol in your body + 300 unwanted calories!
