100 Calorie Pack

For about a year now, I have been buying 100 Calorie snack packs of oreos and chips ahoy cookies.  They are okay. I would rather have the real thing, but I guess since these are better for me I can handle it.  They have a bit of the normal taste, but they also kind of taste that they are good for you which maybe what scares me!  Hopefully if I can only snack on these instead of chips or Hershey bars, maybe it will help me lose some weight.

Plastic Surgery

I was watching VH1 the other day and they had a show on about plastic surgery. It seems like some people have caught the bug of seeing a cosmetic surgeon Los Angeles.  The first winner of the first American’s Top Model, Adrienne (now married to Peter from the orginal Brady bunch) had her breast augmentated after a miscarriage.  Her body went all out of whack causing her breasts to not be the same size which cause her to feel self concious.  If having plastic surgery to augment your breasts, have a mini tummy tuck, or even a nose job, is to help you feel better about yourself, who should judge?  Its nice to get this all done in a wonderful and elegant setting.  Privacy and making you feel better are the two main goals of the this plastic surgeon. 

A well known secret is that woman are not the only one who have stuff done to them.  There is such thing as plastic surgery for men. Men do not admit to plastic surgery as often as woman do.  Men can also have tummy tucks.  Men can have nose jobs.  It is just something that causes guys to feel more self conscious if they let people know that they have been under the knife. 

 Rodeo Drive Plastic Surgery’s motto is that they treat everyone like a celebrity.  When you use their service, you are given the star treatment.  You are surrounded by glitz and glamour in the surrounding businesses so it does not stop once you enter the surgery center.  The prices are not Rodeo drive prices, the surgeries are affrodable.  There are even medical students that are learning at this center.   There is also a payment plan for those who put off plastic surgery until they can afford it. All you have to call up and ask.

Advice for Men

I was hanging out with Andy and some of his male friends the other day, both of them single.  One of them was saying how fat Kelly Clarkson is.  Okay I got all offensive in his face.  One, Kelly Clarkson is not fat.  She looks good and normal.  Sure she isn’t rail thin like the Olson twins or Nicole Ritchie.  But she look healthy.  Andy has also made comments like that too.  My problem is that I think I weigh either the same as Kelly Clarkson or even more.  So in essence, he was calling me fat.  I have told Andy this a couple times, do not comment about weight in front of woman.  It saves a lot of fighting and hurt feelings.

Health awareness

For some reason, I have been getting a lot of emails about the Benefits of Colon Cleansing for some reason.  I do not think I have ever thought of doing this myself, but I have heard of celebrites doing this.  Such as Dave Navarro right before his wedding to Carmen Electra.  He actuallly raved about how much better he felt.  He felt cleansed and rid of all the negative in his body.  I have also seen it done on MTV’s Next.   The guy may have even used Bowtrol Colon Cleanse which from what I read makes you more regular. Even after all that, she Nexted him.  For more information about Colon cleansing, please review the Health Forum website.

Drug Rehabilitation

The hardest thing for a person to admit is that they have a problem. Until they admit that they have a problem themselves, they are not going to ever be rid of their addiction. It is all what the person makes of it. If you want to be clean, that is the first step to getting clean. If you need help, please look into Drug Rehabilitation. It is almost impossible to beat drug addiction without help from a professional. If you need help, seek it. Go online and find this site that can help you become the person you once were. It offers some referrals by sorting by different types of addictions. Their main goal is to get you help and get you clean. How can you not like a site that states that bluntly!

Many people overcome their drug addiction. Hollywood star, former Ally McBeal star, Robert Downey Jr. has been to drug rehab and he’s really cleaned himself up. Just make sure you are doing it for yourself because you want to. That is the only way that it work. So make the first step today by admitting you have a problem and then do something about it.

Dieting

Eventually, I will go on a diet to lose some weight. I do not think I would I would try supplements with Ephedra in it though. I try to be very careful about what I put in my body. I have heard that ephedra-free supplements do work sometimes. I guess you just have to be comfortable doing that.

Water and Fruits and Veggies

There is a new challenge at work for the next months. For 15 days straight we have to drink 8 glasses of water and half 5 servings of fruits or veggies a day. The water I can handle. I like water. The problem I am having is 5 servings of fruits and veggies. I am very picky and do not like a lot of fruits or veggies. I have been eating grapes, asparagus, spinach, artichoke, and corn. Three servings a day is doable for me, but 5 I really have to work at. Plus it means going to the grocery store more too. And we have a problem of not being able to just pick up one thing. The reason we are doing this…work will give us 60 bucks if we succeed towards health and wellness equipment. Andy wants some different weights so I figure its worth it. Right now its 7 at night and I have 4 more glasses to go! And 2 more veggies or fruits. I will probably have 2 servings of grapes. Or maybe some peaches.

Propel

Andy and I like to drink. Water that is. I used to drink Clearly Canadain, but then we came across Propel from the makers of Gatorade. My favorite flavor is Berry flavor. We go to Sam’s to get cases. Along with a Mountain Dew (which I am trying to quit) its my morning drink. It seems like its good for me, its vitamn enhanced water beverage. I do not think I normally get the vitamns I need in my diet, so I get it in my water. The other good thing is its low in calories, the entire bottle only 25. Of course the diet soda I have switched to drinking, is 0 calories. But oh well.

Malibu Rehab

By now everyone had heard that Linsday Lohan has checked herself into rehab. According to the news, she is in for alcohol detox. Her father says she is in for pain killer addiction to oxycotin. Sunset Malibu looks like it would be a great location for a rehab and drug treatment center. It is away from the limelight and next to the ocean. It has an awesome view in a private location for the patients. Sunset Malibu is known for using conventional methods and sprinkling in some not so convential methods. Not only do they treat pain killer addiction, they also treat alcohol, substance abuse, depression and eating disorders. They are there to help most problems that are affecting all ages of our community from young children to grownups, from working man to celebrity. Sunset Malibu is does not discriminate, they are there to help.

Late Mail

So every day I’ve been waiting for my pedometer. We worked overtime today, so I expected the mail to be there when we got home at 5. It wasn’t. So my long boring day seemed like it got even worse. Low and behold, I just went to go put a letter in the mailbox and there was my pedometer!!! You don’t know how happy that makes me. I need to get back to walking and making money, and getting healthy. Plus, there was a coupon for a flower store, I get a free flat of flowers and 20% of all plants for one day. I felt like it was my lucky day!
