    I'm biting the bullet and doing Atkins

    Dr Atkins was not obese at the time of his accident nor did his heart condition have anything to do with his diet. When he was admitted to the hospital he weighed 195lbs which is a very healthy weight for his size and age. At the time of his death some two weeks later he had retained massive...

    I'm biting the bullet and doing Atkins

    Cbelle, I wish you all the best of luck. I've been doing Atkins for a year now and I've lost 45lbs. I firmly believe it is the healthiest of eating styles and closer to what would have originally been eaten before the invention of wheat products. My word of advice would be to read Atkins...

    Kid's Lunches

    I freeze their juice boxes and it acts as a little ice cooler. This way I can pack anything I want in the lunch and not have to worry about it spoiling in the hot weather. I usually have the standard sandwich, but ham and cheese is ok, with the frozen juice box. I can also pack yogurt or...

    Financial Question

    The standard calculation would be the principle x the rate x the time / 365 (days of the year) In this case it looks like they took the principle (320.52) x the rate (.1524) x the time (29 days) then dividing by 365 for example 320.52 x .1524 x 29 / 365 = 3.88101........... HTH, Laura

    Opinion from mothers of daughters.

    Personally, I wouldn't have any problem if my daughter (She's 12) wanted a belly button piercing. Only because I think it's one of those pick your battles issues. I mean really, there could be much bigger issues than a body piercing, such as drugs or inappropriate boyfriends, or any boyfriend...

    Am I a sentimental crackpot?

    I bought a 2000 Dodge Ram. It was my dream truck and I saved for two years to get a large enough down payment on it, so that I could have affordable monthly payments. Two years later I got pregnant with twins and I was really struggling to pay for childcare so I could continue to work...

    Amazing Abs

    Not Cathe obviously but I do know the key to defined abs is in a lower body fat percentage. I would be willing to guess (and I don’t know for sure, this is merely speculation) that Cathe’s body fat % is in the lower teens. I’m not calling you or anyone here fat by any means. I don’t know you...
