FOODS THAT HELP YOU LOSE WEIGHT

FOODS THAT HELP YOU LOOSE WEIGHT

Curb Your Cravings With These

There are no magic foods but there are foods that, because of heir taste, texture or density, can help you lose weight. That’s the idea behind the following foods which trick your body into feeling satisfied with far less fat and fewer calories than it;s used to:

SWEET POTATOES. While baked potatoes cry out for butter or sour cream, sweet potatoes have a naturally rich taste and creamy texture. Delicious plain, they have only 20 calories and are loaded with beta carotene.

SALSA. Sidetracked by salsa’s tongue startling flavor, your mouth wont’ miss greasy condiments. Try it instead     of mayonnaise on sandwiches or as a marinade for chicken and fish.

HIGH FIBER CEREALS. By providing bulk, these cereals fill you up on relatively few calories. One study showed that people who started the day with high fiber cereals consumed fewer calories 3 1/2 hours later than did people who ate low or no fiber cereals. But look for cereals low in sugar and pour on skim milk instead of whole.

CINNAMON – RAISIN BAGELS. Like cereals most breads have bulk going for them. Cinnamon raisin bagels are a particular standout since they’re sweet enough to make it easy forgo fattening spreads. The only caveat : go for small to medium sized bagels. Large ones can have as many calories as four slices of bread.

FLAVORED SELTZERS. Don’t mistake thirst for hunger. when you feel the urge to eat, try having a drink first. For those who find plain water a bore, flavored no-calorie seltzers are good.

GRAPES. Sitting on a sofa making your way through a bag of cookies may seem tempting after a hard day. Eat grapes instead. They’re high in sugar but as long as you don’t overdo it, they offer the same soothing hand to mouth action with none of the fat. try them frozen too.

ORANGES. The more slowly you eat, the easier it is to recognized your body’s satiety signals. And what snack takes longer than peeling and sectioning an orange? Because they come in the fiber intact, they’re more filling than orange juice. Besides an orange has only 73 calories, a cup of oranges juice has 120.

AIR – POPPED POPCORN. If quantity affects the quality of your eating experience, consider that four cups of air-popped popcorn have only 100 calories and gram of fat. Compare that to potato chips - four cups weigh in at about 600 calories and have 40 grams of fat. Sprinkle the popcorn with hit sauce or dried herbs and a teaspoon of cheese and enjoy.

CANDY BAR. To avoid binges, it’s important to indulge yourself once in while. The occasional candy bar is a good choice for sweet tooth cravings because it’s individually packaged and thus less risky than cake or ice cream.

Beauty Picks : Skin Safety Campaign

The Importance of  Using Sunscreen Daily

Sunlight can stress the skin and cause damage. The amount of exposure to the sun and elements in the environment, especially ultraviolet radiation (UVR), dictates how old your skin will look.

Where does UVR come from?

Sunlight is a spectrum of electromagnetic radiation, 50% is visible light (what we see), 45% is infrared and UV is 5%. UV light is further divided into three groups : UVC, UVB and UVA.

UVC is absorbed by the ozone layer and doesn’t reach the ground.
UVB is the primary cause of sunburn and skin cancer.
UVA, on the other hand, represents 90% of the total UVR reaching the earth surface.
UVA penetrates deeper into the skin to cause skin darkening, and penetrates most deeply into the eyes and cause degeneration of the retina, UVA is present all day and throughout the year and can reach the skin even through windows.

What will happen if I go out in the sun often?

Consequences of sun exposure includes sunburn, darkening of freckles, premature aging or photo aging of the skin like coarse wrinkling, yellow hue, laxity, thickening and furrowing of the skin, telangiectasia, solar keratoses, cataracts, and skin cancers. Thu, the most commonly affected are the exposed areas like neck, face, forearms and back of the hands. About 90% of the unwanted changes are because of photoaging.

SKIN FACT!


Using sunscreen prevents skin damage and skin cancer,

 Can we protect out skin from photoaging?

Photoprotection or the single most cost effective therapy for photoaging which includes:

SUN AVOIDANCE – you have to limit sun exposure during peak UV times , between 10 am to 4 pm and avoid UV reflective surfaces such as the sand and water.

PHYSICAL PROTECTION – you can wear a broad brimmed hat ( at least 4 inches ) or long sleeve shirt.
You can also use dark colored umbrellas or UV blocking films or windows.

USE OF SUNSCREEN PRODUCTS  has been advocated by dermatologist as a means to reduced skin damage due to sunlight.

What Exactly does a Sunscreen do? How is it different from a Sunblock?

Sunscreens do not only prevent photodamage ( damage because of UVR ), they also allow repair of the skin. These products increase the skin’s natural mechanisms to fight the harmful effects of UVR. The term “sunblock”  is commonly used to refer to sunscreen  and their active ingredients. Today, the US Food and Drug Administration sunscreen monograph does not sanction the term because the consumers might be misled into thinking that the product completely blocks all sunlight.

What do you mean by SPF in the labels of the sunscreen bottles?

The Sun Protection Factor ( SPF ) scale that you see is the protection to UVB, but it does not give you enough protection against UVA, so spf alone is not enough for complete protection. Thus, when choosing a sunscreen, look for the one that has both UVB ( SPF ) and UVA ( Star System ) protection.

The 4 categories of UVB sunburn protection products :
                 
          Low           SPF  20 to < 15
          Medium     SPF  15 to < 30
          High           SPF   30 to 50
          Highest       SPF   > 50

The UVA Sunscreen rating is the Star System. the rating is as follows :

          UVA rating                      Persistent Pigment Darkening
          Low 1*                            2 – < 4 hours
          Medium 2**                    4 – < 8 hours
          High 3 ***                      8 – < 12 hours
          Highest 4****                12 or above
         Good Protection is 4 stars

The combination of UVB and UVA filters contained in the sunscreen will provide broad spectrum photoprotection. Your dermatologist can provide you with this information.

How much sunscreen should you apply?

The Teaspoon Rule of Sunscreen Application .

Use half a teaspoon each on neck and head , right arm and the left arm.

use more than a teaspoon on the upper and lower torso, right leg and left leg.

When should sunscreen be applied?

Sunscreen should be applied on expose areas 15 to 30 minutes before going out into the sun. Reapply to expose sites 15 – 30 minutes after sun exposure begins. Further reapplication is advised every 2 – 4 hours after vigorous activities that remove sunscreen such as swimming, toweling or excessive sweating and rubbing.

When are the sunscreen preparation available for use?

Sunscreens are available in a variety of preparations and lotions are the most popular. Creams are more water resistant and provide higher SPF protection. Gels are none greasy, good for oily skin or when sweating. Sticks are the most water resistant, good for the lips or around the eyes and best for sensitive skin. Aerosols are the best for the body.

IN SUMMARY

The regiment of Overall Protection includes :

Sunglasses to protect the eyes
Protective clothing
Avoid midday sun

15 POINTS OR MORE

Demanding Date

The problem? You’ll either scare off great guys or attract a very passive man with whom you’ll eventually get bored because he doesn’t assert himself.

So how do you soften your high maintenance attitude? You need more reasonable expectations on a date.

Start by being more flexible. If he doesn’t show up with flowers or downgrades the date with a b-ball game, don’t label him a loser who isn’t trying hard enough. View it as a chance to see a more relaxed side of each other. Also give yourself a reality check.

Desirable Date

Honey your the total date package. Optimistic and open to trying new things, whether it is exotic cuisine or wall climbing. you also have the right mind set. It doesn’t matter whether you’re sitting in a cafe or a fancy restaurant.

Still, that doesn’t mean that your totally anything goes. while your open to going out with a guy who may not fit with your specifications, you have no problem saying no to a second date. If a guy switches plans on you at the last minute, you’ll be open to it but make your needs known. No wonder why your PDA is probably packed with date nights and eligible dude’s digits.

6 POINTS OR FEWER

Desperate Date

You’re so concerned with accommodating any man that you rarely make a memorable impression or get what you want out of a date. You dress in what a guy would like, shrug it off if he only calls last minute, and hook up simply because he begs.

To have more gratifying dates, get out of guy-pleasing modes. you need  to figure out your needs and wants and make them known.

Lastly, start to make control of your availability factor. Next time a guy calls you at the last minute( again ), don;t drop your plans for fear he’ll ditch you out and go out with another girl. If he wants you, he;ll make the effort to call you again.

18. Know matter how good a guy looks if you’re not attracted to him, stop talking your self into a relationship.

34. LOOKS MATTER LESS. Of course, you have to be attracted to a person, but i find funny, smart, creative so much sexier now!

35. if you don’t like yourself so is he. CONFIDENCE IS SO HOT!
