Hey everyone, thanks for stopping by!
My name is Alice, and I’m passionate about helping people achieve better health while also working toward financial freedom. Through this website, I share my journey of staying physically fit and healthy, along with the steps I’m taking to build a sustainable income as a stay-at-home mom.
(This page has been updated to reflect my current journey—excited to share more with you!)
My Health Journey
Growing up, I never struggled with weight—if anything, I was underweight. It wasn’t until my twenties that I started gaining extra pounds, which became noticeable in my college yearbook. At first, I didn’t worry much, thinking I could shed the weight quickly with a little effort.
However, after starting my first job, I found myself struggling with my health and energy levels. My face looked bloated, my body felt heavier, and I lacked the stamina I once had.
To regain control of my health, I experimented with different diets, including an expensive meal replacement plan, which didn’t give me the results I hoped for. Eventually, I committed to a natural fruit juice diet for two weeks. It was challenging, but it helped me reset my eating habits.
Over time, I found a balanced approach—eating healthier foods, drinking plenty of water, getting enough sleep, and indulging in moderation.
My Financial Journey
For over 15 years, I worked in the healthcare industry, spending 11 years in the Middle East before returning to the Philippines in 2022. I resigned from my job in March 2022 to focus on my family, and since then, I’ve been on a journey to rebuild my career on my own terms.
I initially started this website as a passion project while working full-time, but now, it has become a major part of my goal to earn a full-time income online. I’m restarting my affiliate marketing journey, hoping to create financial stability while being present for my son.
I believe that financial health is just as important as physical health, and I want to inspire others—especially fellow moms—to explore opportunities that provide both flexibility and financial security.

Hello,
My name is Brenda and I represent SweetDefeat’s Editorial team. Our blog focuses on personal wellness and building healthy eating habits, primarily on curbing the sugar addiction so rampant in our society today.
I have looked through your article, namely How to Start a Ketogenic Diet for Weight Loss that can be found here: https://stayhealthygetwealthy.com/how-to-start-a-ketogenic-diet-for-weight-loss, and noticed potential overlap/synergy between your audience and ours. We have written an article with a similar focus, here:

Hey Brenda,
Thanks for reaching out. I really appreciate your interest in collaborating with me, which I think is a great idea. So I checked out your blogs and I like the fact that your focus is on personal wellness by cutting down or totally eliminating sugar in our diet.
It’s my pleasure to share your article on my website, and I look forward to partnering with you and your team in raising health awareness among people of all ages.
Cheers,
Alice
Hello Alice,
Wow! You were very dedicated to stick to the juice diet! I couldn’t do that. I have had many health issues and had to learn to take care of myself also. I have found I can keep from gaining weight if I stay away from sugar (for the most part) and I don’t drink dairy milk anymore either since it makes my candida go out of control. I tried to go gluten free for awhile also. I don’t do that now but I am more aware of what wheat can do to us.
I was used to being able to eat more since I had a very active lifestyle and after a car accident and many health problems I am not able to be as active as I was previously. So now, diet is even more important. I have found making big batches of healthy food on the weekend really helps since then I have good leftovers during the week. Then there is less temptation to eat cheap fast food. I also drink lots of water.
Your advice here is great! Thanks!
Jessica
Hey Jessica,
You have no idea how difficult that was, I mean sticking to only water and juices, especially during the first 2-3 days. But after my body got used to it, it was as easy as snapping a finger, you know what I mean.
Going on a cleansing or juice/water diet takes a lot of discipline and motivation. So before you even start, you must set a clear goal and stick to it. Why do you want to be fit and healthy? What is the ideal weight that you must maintain?
Sugar and chips are the main culprits for gaining unwanted pounds so cutting down on them will make a huge difference. I don’t advise people to totally stay away from sweets and chips. I think we should indulge ourselves once in awhile.
Preparing big batches of healthy foods is a great idea to keep you from eating junk or fast foods. I do that too sometimes but most of the time if I wasn’t able to prepare a healthy meal, I would just grab an apple or banana and drink lots of water.
Stay healthy because health is wealth!
Alice
