I've been on the shot or "Depo Provera" for about 5 1/2 years now, and haven't had a period since. However, there are certain times where I "must" have something sweet. I guess that qualifies?

I sure would. I am a dachshund lover. We currently have four and I couldn't imagine my life without them. They are little trouble-makers but they are so loving. Even though they are a small breed (miniature dachshunds), they think they are 6 feet tall and bullet proof. We also had two dachshunds growing up and they passed…

I had to search for an image to compare rolled vs. steel cut oatmeal. I never knew there was a difference!

I recently switched from working days to working nights, and found that my hours spent awake have reduced. I am naturally a night owl, so I would wake up at 7:00 AM every day and then go to bed by 2:00 AM when the day was over. I was usually so tired after only getting 5 hours of sleep, that I found it hard to fit in…

I've tried a few really dumb ones. I thought they were great at the time, because I lost weight pretty quickly. But once you started to eat "normally" again, I gained a lot of it back. When I say normally, I mean real healthy food, not going back to previous bad eating habits. I've tried the GM diet, grapefruit diet (and I…

I live in Benton, Illinois. It's a very rural area---no where near Chicago. It's about a 6 hour drive south of Chicago.

I measure my days from the time I wake up to the time I go to bed. I recently switched to night shift, so I am eating breakfast at about 2, lunch around 8 PM and dinner after midnight. So, I just log everything that I eat from that "day" whether it's after midnight or not.

You can also buy B12 vitamins at the store. I also have the same energy issues. No matter how much sleep I get, how healthy I eat, or how much exercise I get, I always feel tired. B12 vitamins take the edge off.

I am not sure about specific cuts of clothes that can make you look "smaller." However, I would shop for some clothes that truly fit your body shape and are not baggy and shapeless. Depending on the job, I would stick with some type of suit with a structured jacket. I would stay away from button up shirts underneath,…

Jennifer Aniston

^This You're right, it is not illegal. There are several things that can or have been discriminated against when it comes to hiring that people may disagree with, but it is not against the law. If you want to view protected classes, research Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, ADA, and ADEA. But, I know that's not what you…

I am a Human Resources Coordinator and I love it! I have a weird passion for Human Resources but I also love the company I work for. The company I work for is a global hotel company, but I work in a call center.

I saw this on another message board, but I thought it might help you with the negative thoughts: http://fitmamatraining.com/how-i-let-go-of-self-hate-and-discovered-my-beautiful/

You have to really want it. If you are just getting bored, determine why you don't fell motivated. Do you feel hungry or deprived? Remember, this is a slow process, so you can still have cheat meals. Or, you can still eat those "guilty pleasure foods" as long as they still fit within your calorie goal. Don't expect the…

Three months is not much time to make a "lifestyle" change. Sure, it's a good start, but I'm sure it's not complete habit for you yet. Once you have started maintaining, you should get to the point where you don't have to "count" calories. You should know your limits, what you can eat each day and not gain weight. Now, if…

Pomegranate vinaigrette is really good. It does contain olive oil, but it doesn't have that "oily" texture.

Skinny Cow ice cream! I love the chocolate fudge ice cream cones. It's not exactly "healthy" for you, but it's only 150 calories.

I'm going through the same thing. I am getting over being sick and have not been to the gym in a week! On top of that, I haven't eaten much lately, but today I got my appetite back. I have been so tempted to eat anything and everything in sight, but none of it is healthy stuff. To motivate myself a little more, I have been…

The lyrics to Everybody's Free to Wear Sunscreen, by Mary Schmich: Wear sunscreen. If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long-term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience. I will…

1. I don't know who Adele is. (I don't listen to the radio and only watch a few channels on TV) 2. I love my job, but feel like I am so behind on some things right now. 3. I dislike who my sister is marrying and can't bring myself to tell her (wedding is one month from today).

1. Got to sign up for 41.5 hours of overtime for this month so I can save more towards my wedding 2. My test that was due Friday got postponed until next week 3. My dogs were extra good while I was at work today and didn't chew up anything (they are both 5 months old)

My fiance and I will have been together 6 years in May. We've only been engaged since October. =)

I think the best way is to be a role model. I do not have kids, but I think that if my parents ate healthier, I would have picked up on those habits. When I was 10, my doctor suggested to my mom that I be put on a diet. The rest of the family would have pizza, and she would give me a salad. It made me feel so isolated and…

Dexter

Haha. I love Seinfeld. My favorite has to be Dexter. It's probably not the music I like as much as the excitement I feel when I hear it!
