Don't Overeat on the Holidays
2008-07-27 12:32:00 Halloween candy is the unofficial start of holiday eating binges. It?s hard to refuse those few morsels that ?trick or treating? children leave behind. No one wants to throw food out, so most people bring the candy to work and spread it around.It?s that time of year again - when all of us could learn a little restraint and still be able to enjoy ourselves at the same time. Please observe, or pass on the following information, to your loved ones, friends, and students. Last year, I lost 10 pounds during the holidays, and 21 pounds since then, by using the following guidelines.After you eat, your stomach should be half full, or less, with food. For every two parts of food consumed, you should drink one part water. Leave your stomach at least one quarter empty for movement of air.When eating at a restaurant or party, eat half a portion, maximum, and wait five or ten minutes. Restaurant portions are commonly two or three meals on a single or double plate. This is way too much to consume...

The Holidays Are Upon Us
2008-07-11 01:25:00 Well, not THOSE holidays, although there is a little of THAT holiday fun coming this weekend, but more about THAT later (wait, I didn?t need to capitalize that use of that, sorry). With the end of the week upon us, there are a few things I need to make sure you are all aware of this coming weekend. I?d hate for you to find out about them after the fact, because who likes celebrating belated holidays. More than once (perhaps 6 times, though I am just throwing out the first number that came to mind) I have been chastised for not sharing pertinent holiday happenings with you in enough advance time to be able to celebrate. Tonight, that practice ends. So, I am putting on my town crier Paul Revere hat and riding throughout the countryside to announce the advance of some pretty important, possibly illegitimate, but still fun to celebrate, holidays (and this is where I say ?Hi Kat.?).First up is Friday?s big holiday. You may have heard a little something about this one and I have to ...

Getting Through the Holidays Without Gaining Weight
2008-05-18 22:00:00 "Getting Through the Holidays Without Gaining Weight" was written by Helene Haber.Getting Through the Holidays Without Gaining Weight Now that the holiday season is here, holiday foods and meals take center stage. And this is as it should be. Food is a terrific celebration of friendships, of family and of love. These celebrations do not have to lead you to unhealthy eating habits. With a little advance planning, you can really enjoy your food and the holidays. Remember that the mental attitude you bring to the table is as important as what?s on the table.1. Plan Ahead. Without thinking about what is likely to be served, the best intentions fall by the wayside faster than you can shake a drumstick. If you absolutely cannot pass up the cornbread or cinnamon buns warm from the oven or Aunt Fay?s amazing apple cake, then you need to decide what and how much you will eat so someone does not have to roll you out. If you?re going to eat the apple cake that?s fine, but remember to eat fewer...

Rope Lighting:Not Just for the Holidays Anymore!
2008-03-10 16:09:00 My husband recently stumbled upon the mother of all clearance sales - half price on rope lighting at the local Walmart! I can't help but wonder how many little old ladies he took out with the shopping cart... I've had him in "Clearance Therapy" but to tell you the truth I haven't seen much improvement. He hit the front door with a plan for his 100 feet of rope light and by the end of the day I must say I was impressed. I found that 18 feet of rope light screwed up under the bottom edge of my platform bed made a nice nightlight and gave a certain ambiance to the room...after my husband finally got all the tiny screws in place and the cursing stopped because of the awkward position he had to be in while installing the lights...This would probably be better accomplished with an angle drill and possibly a trained monkey or a smaller member of the household doing the work due to it being hard for a big guy to get under the edge of the bed. By the way, you cannot see the rope itself, o...

Save Money During the Holidays
2008-02-25 13:24:00 Most of us are not aware that we can save money during Christmas whether we buy gifts for our loved ones or to anyone. There are many stores that sell cheap foods and items during the Holiday but you have to have a timing. Most of the stores or mall will sell gifts and items expensively believing that the holiday itself can sell many products from their store. You must be aware of this. I know this strategy because I worked in the Mall myself. It was my first job and I learned a lot working there for six months. In USA you can save money by buying during Black Friday after thanksgiving. What is the other advantage is that the store is online, meaning you can buy anything via Internet so you don't have to go to store as early as 5AM. Many products are available there like if you want to buy in WalMart like toys or electronic gadget. They have also circuit city products which are all about electronics and computers. Visit blackfriday.info today and start your shopping. You can even m...

2008-01-07 05:04:00 It's the first week of January now and it's 2008, and i am a year older too:) My sister and her husband went back to Cagayan de Oro last January 4 and will be flying home to Belgium soon. It's kind of quiet in the house and I can feel the holidays being over and soon i will have to take down the tree and the christmas decorations once again. I can't help feeling a little bit blue, compared to the excitement before christmas, it's a little bit sad when it's over although it can be a relief to all the stress of the holidays. Finally a break to all the eating too hehe:) I think i've eaten a lot of sweets this christmas.While travelling back home from Cagayan de Oro last December 29, we stayed on the road for 5 hours because there was a landslide on the road going to Bukidnon.

Summarizing The Holidays!

I'm not sure if I'll make any kind of sense here, because these few weeks have been very confusing to say the least!Naturally I have enjoyed my trip, meeting with my families is always great since I don't see them too often!! But despite that things haven't been great ... I'm in a very "expansive" phase of my life right now, where I'm really learning to stand on my own two feet and creating my own ...

Things Overhead During the Holidays
2007-12-27 16:00:00 We like to joke around here all year long but for some reason this last week or two has produced some lines that would make Hollywood jealous--I tell you you just can't write material this good.My picture is rather irrelevant--just my newest little niece Lucy that I've been drooling and smooching on for the past week and a half.1. I'm planning on starting Lillian on some Kafka after hearing her say from the back of the car on the way to school:"Mom?""Yes?""I'm glad I'm not a cockroach."I've learned you just don't question comments like this or delve too deeply into the origins--though I think she's been watching the Discovery Channel and a documentary about the world's largest pile of bat guano with all the cockroaches that live therein. At least I'm hoping that's where this came from. Who cares, just agree and smile. Agree and smile."Yes dear, I'm glad you're not a cockroach too."2.

Veritas Salutes the Holidays with 3 Classics!
2007-12-26 06:01:00 In order to properly celebrate this festive season, I will submit for your review my three favorite jokes. I shall lead off with a classic penguin joke. If you've never heard this joke, sit back and be prepared to roar with laughter. If you have heard it before, it's just as funny the 1,000th time as the first. Anybody who knows me will back that statement up.This happy go lucky penguin is cruising down the street in his high performance car, when all of a sudden out of the blue, he hears a disturbing noise coming from under the hood. As many of you know, penguins are cold weather denizens that are much more at home in the icy terrain of Antarctica, than working as automotive mechanics.Despite the disturbing engine sound, today was surely the penguin's lucky day. He noticed an automotive garage with a big neon sign proudly announcing "Mechanic on Duty." The penguin managed to get the vehicle into the parking area of the shop and found the mechanic. He described to the mechanic wh...

The Weight of the Holidays....
2007-12-25 03:46:00 It hangs pretty darn heavily, to tell the truth. It's not easy to maintain a moderate weight, much less lose some pounds over the holidays. There are just too many things going on, and also the stress of running around trying to get everything just right for these last celebratory days of the year seems to knock everything out of whack. Stress eating is at an all time high, and consumption of fast food from food courts and eating on the run is also a big source of extra holiday calories. And last but not least, the fatigue you feel after all the prepping, shopping, wrapping, lighting, tree trimming, decorating and cooking for the big events leaves you not wanting to lift another finger, much less stick to your workout plan as usual.So, here are a few tips to keep it all in check until the New Year's resolutions kick in:Tip #1 - Have a plan. Whether it's for your shopping trip, house decorating, or prepping holiday dinner, create a time line in which you're going to try to ge...
