There have always been bullies, but I think one of the saddest things of the present times we are living in, with things like the internet... Face book, and all those social media sites, mobile phones even- it is making it so much easier for bullies to exist and do their dirty work behind the scenes. In my day, bullying in…

The more water you drink, the more you pee ,right? I sure hope you are peeing to the level one would expect after consuming that much liquid per day. You really do seem to be going over the top with the fluids. This would definitely not cause fluid retention in a healthy person. But it could caus other problems such as…

My goodness, I have not heard that for years and years. My mother used to preach this when I was a kid. Actually, I think it sounds fairly sensible advice .

It catches any seepage, and makes cleaning up much easier. Just lay a pice of it in your pan and put your pancakes on that. There…

If that happened to me I would first of all go get my blood pressure checked in case that is the culprit. I think a drop in BP is a more likely cause of lightheadedness than constipation is. There may be two different issues here.

Dont get discouraged. It is quite common to plateau . It has happened to me many times,with many different diets... WW's Jenny Craig . and all the rest of them ! I have found that Fitness Pal will actually 'tell' us if your calorie intake is too low for your goals and you do seem to be eating correctly. . I know how these…
