I received the same news recently and my Dr. told me to drink gatorade. I was surprised when I was reading the ingredients of gatorade to find that it contains high fructose corn syrup. So I dug around for a natural replacement and came up with this recipe. 3/4 t sea salt 1/2 t backing...

Another Dave Ramsey fan! I agree, his website is cluttered which makes it hard to find things but the tools to get you started are there and they are free. At the bottom of his page is a blue block that says tools. You'll want the Gazelle Budget, Budget Forms, & 7 steps. These will get you...

Wow! Thanks for the link. It's very impressive.

I would also agree that the less drugs the better however keep in mind that the patch you are considering is still a much less dose than birth control pills. Not to discount the possible dangers just to put it in perspective.

It may depend on the cat. We bought (brown) leather furniture after our 2 year old male cat was front declawed. He would dig his back claws in as he was pushing off and run up and down the sofa so it had quite a few claw holes. On the recliner, he was playing with my DH and actually...

Have you considered it might be lactose intolerance? If you eliminate all your dairy for 1-2 days that should be plenty of time to see if goes away. I also have a problem with gas when I take calcium supplements. I also gave up gluten, not because of celiac but because I can't digest it...

Most insurance companies do cover the FDA approved Bio-identicals by pharmeseutical companies. Estrogel, Evamist, Vivel dot etc for Estrgoen and Procheive, Prometrium etc for progesterone and even testosterone. Some insurance companies (Anthem) will cover the compounded creams if you use their...

I wonder about this too. Especially for my diabetic husband. The doctor says splenda but I'm not so sure...

It's not step but it's great fun. Tracie Long's Better Body Better Buns. Amazon has it for $15.00 http://tinyurl.com/6yvt9x It's a functional fitness video and really works the core and the hip flexors with good cardio thrown in. She uses the med ball and rags or paper plates. (can use...

Slice up some sweet onions and baby portabella mushrooms with them, drizzel with olive oil & lemon juice, sprinkle with Sea salt & pepper, toss and roast or grill. Uhmmm I love fresh green beans.

I think that's a good question and a astute observation on your part(Sorry you had so much time on your hands). I think the first question should be... Were our bodies created to digest all the processed foods that are in our grocery carts? We grind everything into powder, dump chemicals in...

SirenSong, I did UCB yesterday and have to agree with you that working out with Cathe's videos only improve my form while doing the Tall box climb. Love this video! Hate the side planks. :-) But I wanted to remind you that the Firm was one of the first at home videos to inspire women to...

It's not as hard as it may sound. Basically it's a clean diet without wheat/barley and rye. No breads, No pastas, No oats (cross contamination)No Beer, read labels on all foods like canned beans, soups, sauces, ice cream etc. They add wheat or barley malt into a LOT of foods. (maltodextrin is...

Isn't that where Ghirardeli's chocolate factory is? I know some who have taken a tour of the factory and enjoyed it... of course they were all women and went mostly for the chocolate. :9

No, the only thing I can find is the flour. I would love to try the grain as a hot cereal. I believe it's a grain grown mostly in Africa but it is suppose to be high in protein and it's gluten free. If you try it, please post and let us know.

My energy level is at it's highest in the mornings and I don't feel the need for anything other than coffee. (gotta have my coffee). I do notice though if I have had a light dinner the night before then my workout is compromised so you might consider making sure your dinner has enough protein...

Flax is one of the good oils, full of the Omega 3s.. While fish oil has both Omega 3s & 6s, it's thought that we may be getting an abundance of the 6s (also found in olive & canola oils) but not of the 3s and many of our diseases are coming from the unbalance. I like Barleans as a brand but...

I have this too and eliminated all gluten (and mostly dairy) from my diet for the past 1.5 years. I was able to lose 10 lb but I still carry and extra 25-30. What gives? I don't eat the substitutes either, just plain whole foods.

I work out at home now but when I belonged to the gym, I did most all free weights. I belonged to a Women's only gym so wasn't intimidated. 1) Do you regularly use free weights and resistance training YES 2) How often do you use free weights/resistance training? a) once a week b)...

I'd sit on it for six months and stash the car payment monies in the bank then for Christmas, I'd sell my truck and combine those monies with my savings and buy a car with cash. You can get great deals on cars when you offer cash.
