Um. You use it to repel/kill bed bugs/fleas, since when they walk over it it cuts their exoskeletons. I would absolutely not eat it. Most of the "non-food-grade" stuff comes COVERED in warnings to not breathe it in, to not let your pets breathe it, etc The "food grade" simply means that animals can eat it and not die. Some…

How is spin the bottle or "seven minutes in heaven" any different than that? The only difference I can see is the kids are being open and honest about their wishes to experiment with kissing different people, rather than the "hide in a closet" mentality. *shrug* Heck, in schools these days there are only so many "decent"…

Depends on what your weekly goal is, and how many calories total you are eating. If you are eating over 1500 and still 700-800 short, you'll be fine. If you are eating less than 1300 calories a day right now, then you will lose more if you eat the extra healthy calories. Remember, you can do it~!

A special aromatic tea ( remember not to add sugar/milk), or a warm, comforting green tea is best. Often I'll save just enough for a single square of dark chocolate to go with (i.e. < 50 calories). Once I'm done my square, I'll brush my teeth. That often helps to curb random snacking. If none of that works, I let myself…

And this is why I keep my diary private. If I'm making the calorie/fat/carb goals, and producing results, the last thing I need is someone telling me I'm DoingItWrong, or otherwise belittling the efforts being make because they have it in their heads they need to judge others efforts so they can feel better about…

Dear PCOS, Thanks again for the wonderful experience of internal vaginal ultrasound, several times a year. Thanks for those scintinating times when a cyst bursts, ending any chance of my evening featuring anything except rocking, clutching, and perhaps an exciting ER visit.... and the inability to go off hormonal birth…

How are you stretching it, exactly? And can you get orthopedics for your shoes?

You have to remember though that Biggest Loser was a T.V. fantasy camp, engineered to appeal to it's audience, not to what's healthy or what will work in the long run. I wouldn't advise taking it as gospel on what's good for you. If you read the blogs of the contestants after the show ended, you find out that that the t.v.…

I'm in! Edit: 1st weight: 193.8 pounds

Remember too that when you lose fat, you also release more estrogen into your system that month... that makes the cravings and mood swings worse. And this too, shall pass.

Depends on which ticker you are counting. I lose the specified "1.5" pounds a week that I chose when I specified my starting weight, daily activity, and goal amount lost. I do not lose at the rate it says I should be losing when I click the "Completed" for the day.

Hi, yet another PCOS sister here. Recently Diagnosed after 35 pound weight gain; three weeks into metformin and good diet and I'm almost ten pounds down. You can do it!!

Nope, it's not as simple as calories in, calories out... for everyone, that is. Most people do follow that formula, but if you have a Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, diabetes, or other metabolic diseases it isn't that simple. Sugars build up in your internal organs and can change your metabolism. It is also hard if you have…
