HOW TO: Get a U.S. Visa

My mom has been pushing us to get our US Visa for some time now so we can visit them and our relatives in the US. They were asking us to go to the US last August for a reunion but Jill and I was too busy [procrastinating] to process our papers.

After putting off our application and interview for more than half a year, we were able to get our visa last January 2015

Here are steps that we did to apply for our Visas. The US Embassy website has steps listed but it's not really that clear and details seem lacking that I had to do some guess work to complete.

Getting healthy with Sexy Chef's Healthy Plate Diet Meals

After having a really bad experience with a certain diet meal delivery, I didn't go back to having diet meal plans for some time. But now I feel like I'm once again gaining weight and since I'm afraid of exploring new diet meal companies - I'm relying on one of the most sure companies I know - The Sexy Chef.

I received an SMS from them offering their new diet program, The Healthy Plate Diet, at half the price just by replying to them my company name. The Healthy Plate Diet is originally priced at Php1,000 per day but for a limited time they are offering it at half price which will cost you Php2,500 for 5 days. The Diet Plan provides 1,200 calories per day which includes breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner. Meals will be delivered to you a day before consumption usually around 3PM to 5PM in the afternoon.
