    Cereal - What kind do you eat?

    Mainly oatmeal but when I am ready for a change (because I just can't take it anymore) I do the frosted shredded wheats. Trader Joe's has a brown sugar one that is yum. We also like the kashi crunch. I can't hear anything when I am eating it, but it is yummy! LOL!

    How do you lower your cholestoral?

    Agree with flax seed oil recommendation. It is easy to pop a few of those and it is great for your skin too. Drinking green tea instead of coffee can also help. Oatmeal (a whole food) is much better than Honey Nut Cheerios, which is highly processed. I am sure oatmeal is the best for...

    Does she have a drinking problem?

    Could be Bipolar, or depression. Often "they" can self medicate with alcohol. That is what I think of when I read your message. Good luck. That is a tough situation. Jen

    Don't pump gas on May 15th!

    I would love to cut down on needless trips. I am having real difficulty figuring out just which ones those are. Also if I could find a smaller, more fuel efficient car that could fit 3 carseats plus stroller and sport gear, that would be nice too. :-) Jen

    How long should my barbell be?

    If you can get a "Troy Lite" (Cathe uses them in some of her videos) that would be perfect for you. I found one online, it was not too bad $ including shipping. I was absolutely unable to find one locally, and I live in a major city. They are about 4 feet I think. I find this perfect for home...

    What do you expect from a cleaning service?

    The last time I hired a cleaning service, it was a private individual from my neighborhood and I thought it would just be...her. Each time she showed up, it was with a slew of non-english speaking people, who I just knew were illegal aliens, because I live in an area where that can be a...

    Hey Moms - How to Tame Toys?

    Well, the 4 yo is beginning to get there, age wise, but still is pretty young to be able to follow through without help. 2 year old twins, GOOD LUCK! LOL! You can do the "Before you get something else out, let's put this away" technique. That works with my 3 yo. You can do the "I am...

    Is this your hair salon experience too?

    I always think maybe it is because they use like, 1/4 of the styling products, quantity wise, that I use.

    Canned pumpkin, the spiced kind you use to make a pie. It rocks. I think someone on this board told me about it. Jen

    Pudding - "a clean food"?

    RE: Pudding - Yeah, sometimes when folks say (it was awhile ago I read this, I am not thinking of one post in particular). "I eat clean but I can't lose weight...." or "I eat 95 percent clean..." I thing DANG! I don't know anyone who really eats clean! Do they really know what that means...

    What about jeans for a boyish figure?

    A Lucky store opened near us and I tried them but didn't really like them at all. I guess you just have to try a bunch and go with what works. I have very long legs and am built like a ruler, and since I have been lifting heavier my thighs have gotten bigger and I hate things to be tight...

    Menopause symptoms and probiotics

    Most (ok all) of the time I have found my docs are not well informed on the influence of diet, supplements, and probiotics. I have come to think upon them as....not the appropriate place to ask about such things... Not trying to criticize any docs personally, just an observation of where the...

    Do you beleive in heaven or hell...

    C.S. Lewis' books are great. I think that Satan's most effective tool is to convince people that he doesn't exist. I wonder if anyone is reading ALL the posts and really at all being convinced of anything or we are just talking to ourselves. :-) I think that most people, even if they...

    Disney with food allergies

    We went to Disney FL with my son who is 5 and has sensitivity to wheat and dairy. His is not life threatening. Disney was very accommodating, it is better to eat in the sit down resteraunts, but we did not do that, we were staying in a condo nearby, on a budget, and mostly ate there. We did...

    BIOTIN

    It depends on what you want from a supplement. I have heard of biotin deficiency causing hair loss, but that is it. I have found flax seed oil good for my skin and hair. Jen
