Me and some bloggers were invited to visit the Nestle office in Makati, and there we met the people behind Nestle's campaign for the "I Choose Wellness Advocacy", we learned there that Nestle is on the move in promoting to Filipinos to have a proper nutrition, have a healthy lifestyle in order to prevent common health problems. Because of the change of lifestyle of common people esp. computer users and bloggers, we must be careful on what we eat and we need lots of physical activities, and thanks to Nestle for reminding us that, and they have a program for everyone where you can participate in an outdoor activity every weekend and help yourself to become fit and healthy.
They gave us this "My Little Step to Wellness" passport, where we can record and monitor ourselves in terms for the weight, waist line, and what we want to maintain in our body, I got introduce to use this BIM Calculator and a Waist Circumference meter, and there I finally convinced myself to do more exercise and start to lose weight, because I'm on the level to obesity, but thanks that I have learned that men have greater chance to lose weight if they have big bellies, so that means I got a bigger chance and the time is now to be healthy and set a good example for all.

After learning about the program, I started to smile and gave a green signal that I should lose weight and be healthy, I just don't have to end up in a hospital again.
bloggers lined up like a Bb. Pilipinas, all are smiling after the food feast and some learning experience about Nestle.
