Food To Chew On:

Vulnerable to Be Loved

1 Corinthians 4:7 (NKJV)

 For who makes you differ from another? And what do you have that you did not receive? Now if you did indeed receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?

Thought For The Day:

We begin to become caring persons when we let god care for us. Then our hearts are set on fire with care for others. Being open to their care for you is often the first step in preparing an openness for you to care for them…..~Amen~

Today is Wiggle Wednesday as you continue to eat right and exercise you will be doing the wiggle dance in your clothes very soon….

Keep Up The Fantastic Work!!! J

10 Tips for Healthy, White Teeth

7. Stay fresh.

To check the freshness of your breath, lick your palm and smell it while it's still wet. If you smell something, it’s time for a sugar-free breath mint. Shopping for mouthwash? Make sure it is alcohol-free. Most over-the-counter mouthwashes have too much alcohol, which can dry out the tissues in your mouth, making them more susceptible to bacteria.

How To Lose Weight Without Really Trying

4. Skip the nonfat.

You know that healthy fats are good for you, but if you're like most people, you still reach for nonfat whenever possible. It's a habit that many of us picked up when lowfat diets were the craze in the 90s—and it's been a tough one for people to break.

See, when most people think of eating fat, they think it will make them fat. But surprisingly, it's really just the opposite. Because not only will eating fat make your skin softer, hair and nails healthier and cushion your joints, it's also what helps you get full at a meal, gives you long-term energy and keeps you from craving unhealthy stuff an hour after you last ate.

Include more healthy fats like avocados, nuts, olive oil, and coconut into your diet, and you'll soon find your cravings decreasing, your appetite normalizing and weight loss becoming more effortless than ever.

A Healthy Menu For

WEDNESDAY

Whole grain foods help people feel full longer, says the American Academy of Family Physicians. They recommend foods with three or more grams of fiber per serving. One cup cooked oatmeal with 2 tbsp. of raisins and 1 cup skim milk is a high fiber, whole grain breakfast. A whole grain lunch includes 2 Ryvita crackers with 2 tbsp. of peanut butter and 2 cups of cantaloupe. A light yogurt with 1/4 cup unsweetened whole grain cereal is a high protein, fiber-containing afternoon snack. For dinner dieters may enjoy 3 oz. of broiled chicken with 1/2 cup cooked quinoa, 10 asparagus spears and a tossed salad with low-fat salad dressing. Six cups of air-popped popcorn are a great way to the end the day.
