How to Achieve Flirty, Defined Eyes

Everyone wants to have beautiful eyes, and anyone can achieve them with a little effort.

Steps

a. Apply your mascara:

1. Clamp an eyelash curler on the roots of your eyelashes and squeeze gently for five seconds. This will give your lashes volume and instantly open up the eyes. For even more curl, clamp the eyelash curler on the middle and tips of lashes, squeezing gently to avoid a 90 degree angle.

2. Apply a primer to your lashes. (Many mascaras are now double-sided and come with primer on one end.) The primer will thicken the lashes. Be sure to brush the outer and inner corners. Let dry for 30 seconds.

3. After 30 seconds, wipe off any excess primer with a tissue. Sweep one coat of mascara on the upper lashes from the roots to the tips. Use brown or brownish-black mascara if you are fair-skinned or blonde. Otherwise use black.

4. While the first coat is still wet, apply a second layer of mascara. Applying a second coat when the first coat is dry will look clumpy.

5. Wait for lashes to dry completely, then use a clean lash comb to seperate the individual lash hairs and remove clumps.

6. If you want to, carefully brush one layer of mascara on your lower lashes. Be sure to use a lash comb or pinch off any clumps.

b. Apply your eyeliner:

1. Stand six inches away from a mirror and tilt your chin up, so that when you look down your nose in the mirror you are able to see your entire eyelid.

2. Dab concealer or a translucent powder on your upper eyelids. Blend well. This will cover veins and prevent creasing of the eyeliner or eyeshadow.

3. Soften the tip of your eyeliner pencil by rolling it between your fingers. This will help the color glide on easily.

4. Gently pull your eyelid taut and beginning at the inner corner, draw small, connected dashes as close as possible to the roots of the upper lashes

5. Brush a matching powder shadow on top of the liner to prevent it from rubbing off.

6. To line the bottom lids, pull the skin taut and draw connected dashes as close as possible to the roots of the lower lashes. Brush a matching powder shadow on top.

7. Fix any mistakes with makeup remover or a cotton swab.

Tips

* Replace mascara as soon as it begins to get dry, not just when it runs out.

* If you are lining the inner rims of the eyes, use and eye pencil instead of a liquid liner, which may contain more bacteria.

* If your eye area is sensitive or you have contacts, normal mascara and liner may irritate. Use hypoallergenic.

* Instead of using eyeglasses or contact lenses, do some research on lasik eye surgery to correct your vision. There are restrictions on who can or should get this surgery, so make sure you consult a doctor before making your decision.

Warnings

* Never apply mascara or liner in a moving car or bus, and always use a mirror.

Things You'll Need

* Eyelash curler

* Mascara with primer

* Eyelash comb

* Translucent powder/concealer

* Eyeliner- liquid or pencil

* Powder shadow of the same color

* Mirror

How to Get Beautiful Eyes!

Eyes are indeed one of the most beautiful and attractive parts in a female body.

Make your eyes really stand out with these tips!

Steps

1. Use an eyelash curler to curl your eyelashes. Make sure your eyelashes are dry, and always use before applying mascara.

2. Apply mascara to your lashes. To ensure your lashes are clump free, place the wand at the base of your lashes and wiggle it before using all over your lashes.

3. Use a kohl eyeliner around your eyes. Try to draw as close to your lashline as possible. It's best to stay on the "outside" of the lashes though -- the side further from your eye.

4. Pick a colour scheme for your eyelids. Try girly colours, natural tones or berry hues. Apply a darker colour to your lid up to the crease. Use a lighter colour over your entire lid.

5. If a sexy, smoky look is what you're after, smudge your eyeliner using a cotton tip and apply a darker colour all over your lids.

Tips

* Don't go overboard, and stay away from blue eyeshadow! If you must use blue, make sure it is subtle. You don't want to look like a clown!

* Creme eyeshadows are great for a light girly look, but they may need to be re-applied often.

* If you don't have time to apply make-up, just curling your eyelashes can really open up your eyes and make-up you look beautiful!

* A great way to make your top lashes longer is to use the mascara on the TOP of the lashes and then apply it under the lashes

* Another cute way to make smoky eyes is to use a black eyeliner, and smudge it a little, but don't put too much. Then take a silvery or silver-purple eyeshadow, and put a little over the black. It's smoky, but glamorous!

* Also use eyeshadow that is the opposite of your eye color don't match your outfits. Example: if you have brown eyes wear blue eyeshadow if you have blue eyes use brown eyeshadow.

Warnings

* Always wash your eye make-up off before you hit the sack! You don't want panda eyes, or to end up with an eye infection.

* if you have P.E class and re-touch after it, avoid letting people borrow your eye make up! Sharing is a good thing but not with these kind of items.

* If you do so they could resort into a bad eye infection or worse, the dreaded pink eye!(imagine waking up to your eyelids being stuck together) So steer clear of those people.

* Your eyes are important and treating them the right way is gonna open your eyes to better things! (Really.)

Hairstyles

When choosing your hairstyle, remember that you'll have a much easier time if you choose a style that lets hair do what it wants naturally.

Fine Hair has the appearance of softness, which can be very feminine and appealing. However, if you want it to look thicker, you should have it layered slightly. A soft body wave adds fullness and hair coloring can also give more body and make it look thicker.

Course Hair has an overall heavy look - one that makes a statement. Cut is very important and a haircut that shapes the face will also help control the hair. Coloring will soften the texture by filling in and smoothing out the cuticle.

Straight Hair can be thick or thin but when in perfect, shiny condition, it gives the impression of a shimmering sheet of hair. A straight, blunt cut to the length you decide is best. A body wave will create movement and curlers will help add height.

Curly Hair is perhaps the most versatile. You can blow-dry it straight, use rollers of various sizes to adjust the natural curls, or let it go soft and curly on its own.

Why You Don't Exercise

Maybe You're Not Just Lazy

Are you overweight? Guilty of starting and quitting more diet plans and exercise programs than you want to remember? If so, you may be wondering what's wrong with you...are you lazy? There are plenty of lazy people in this world, but most of us don't fall into that category. Here's why you don't exercise.

The Little Devil

I'm not clinically insane (hopefully) but I do have voices in my head. These voices belong to everyone from my parents to that guy on TV who's always telling me that I can lose weight in just minutes a day. My most prominent voice is The Little Devil. If you've ever had an argument with yourself like this, you may have a Little Devil too:

You: Time to workout!
Little Devil: Uh, I don't really feel like it. I'm tired.
You: Come on...we already missed our workout yesterday.
LD: Two days? Big deal!
You: But every time we skip a workout, it gets easier not to exercise.
LD: I'm tired.

Getting Rid of the Little Devil

• Stop the argument. For every excuse the little devil devises, reply, "I'm working out anyway." Better yet, just say, "I'm not listening! La la la la!"
• Remind yourself of the facts. You're not physically tired (unless you have a physical job), you're mentally tired. The best cure for that is physical activity
• Be prepared. Having your workout gear handy and your exercise time scheduled can be a big help in dealing with The Little Devil.
• Never go home. Going home before your workout will almost always lead to skipping exercise.

Now, you've dealt with the voices in your head. Time to figure out how to be enthusiastic about exercise (really, it's possible).

Exercise doesn't have to suck

The Exercise Blah's
The Blah's happen to all of us. You excitedly plan a week's worth of exercise routines on Sunday but, Monday comes and suddenly your noon workout sounds about as much fun as cleaning the toilet. What happened to that enthusiasm? Are you lazy? Not necessarily. If you were really lazy you probably wouldn't care whether you walked during lunch or ate a Big Mac. No, what you are is afraid. Afraid that:

• You won't be able to go very far. What if you can only make it for 5 minutes? You'll be a loser!
• It will be hard. You'll have to change clothes, then you'll have to sweat (ugh). Your lungs will burn, your legs will hurt...no thanks!
• You won't reach the guidelines set out by the ACSM: at least 30 minutes of exercise 5 days a week.
• If you can't do that, why bother?
• You won't be perfect. What if you pass other 'real' exercisers while you huff and puff for barely a mile? What will they think?

The need to do it right...to do it perfectly...to work as hard as you can is what makes it hard to do in the first place. But, you have to start with baby steps.

Recapture that enthusiasm

• Redefine your idea of exercise. Does workout=work? It doesn't have to. You already work all day...why would you want one more miserable task to do? Think about it like this: I've been sitting in this stuffy office all day listening to my boss whine, now I have 30 whole minutes to get out of here for a while. That's not exercise--that's sanity!
• Ask for help. Is there someone at work or a friend you trust? Tell them you're having trouble sticking with exercise and ask them to workout with you.
• Remind yourself. Write yourself notes and put them on your computer, your car, your shoes...everywhere. Remind yourself of your plan ("I will exercise for 30 minutes today") and why you're doing it ("I'd love to wear a sleeveless shirt this summer").
• Do what you can. If you can't workout for 30 minutes yet, so what? Go for as long as you can and do more tomorrow. It's that simple and it all counts.

Now, you've gotten your head on straight, why not play a few mind games with yourself? Using your imagination can add a little motivation to your workouts on those days when it's hard to get your butt moving.

How to Lose Weight Fast

Want to slim down fast for that beach vacation or high school reunion? While there are many things you can do to shed pounds, losing weight too quickly, like any sudden change to your body, can be dangerous. While fad diets, diet pills, and fasting may indeed induce rapid weight loss, these methods can cause you to lose muscle and may also injure your heart and other organs fairly quickly. The best solution? Don't go for an overnight miracle. Instead, follow these steps to lose fat rapidly, healthily, and sustainably.

Steps

Determine your daily calorie intake.

Losing weight is simply a matter of expending more calories, through exercise and your daily activities, than you take in. Exercise alone won't make you lose weight if you're still taking in more calories than you burn. However, eating less and exercising more will only decrease your resting metabolic rate, which accounts for roughly 60-80 percent of daily calorie expenditure. Therefore you should exercise harder and eat more protein dense, clean foods; making your calories burned not too far off from your calories taken in will raise your metabolism and allow you to burn fat effortlessly.

Write down all the things you eat on a typical day.

Carry a small notebook with you and jot down every snack, every drink, and the contents of every meal.There are also great websites that you can use to keep track of calories, get recipes, and help achieve your goal. Don't forget to include the pats of butter or the spoonful of sugar in your coffee. It's best to do this for at least a couple weekdays and a weekend; it's even better if you can go a full week.
Do an itemized calorie count.

When possible, write down the number of calories in each thing you eat as you eat it. Keep in mind that the serving size container is often considerably smaller than the serving you actually eat. Look up the calorie count on the internet for foods that don't have calories listed on the container or for fast food meals. You don't have to be 100% accurate, but you do want a good estimate of the number of calories you're taking in.
Go over the list and decide which foods to cut out or reduce. Cutting calories is usually a lot easier than you might think. For example, that daily tall latte in the morning may pack 500 calories. Since a pound of flab (lost or gained) is roughly equivalent to 3,500 calories, replacing that rich beverage with black coffee can help you lose a pound a week.
Other easy cuts include salad dressing (salad dressing is the number one source of fat in the average American woman's diet) soda pop, candy, and butter. Look at the nutritional information for the foods you eat, pay special attention to your intake of saturated fats and empty calories (high-sugar foods). You don't need to cut these things out entirely, but if you reduce your intake of high-fat, high-calorie foods you'll lose weight faster.
Seek out alternatives to the unhealthy foods you've identified. You can simply reduce the amount of soda you drink or mayonnaise you put on your sandwiches, or you can substitute healthier choices. Drink water instead of soda, for example, or use mustard instead of mayo. Low-fat and low-calorie options are also available for most foods, and many of these are natural, (although some are made with strange chemicals), and tasty.


Choose lean meats.

Chicken and fish are both very low in fat (and certain fish like salmon, sardines, and fresh tuna are an excellent source of antioxidants, which are also beneficial to your health), so aim to replace some or all of the beef or pork in your diet with these foods.

Replace high-calorie side dishes with healthier alternatives.

Many people get a ton of calories from side dishes such as macaroni and cheese, French fries, or potato salad. You can eat healthier and lose weight by replacing these with fresh vegetables and salads. Pre-made salads are practically effortless, and when accompanied by a reduced-calorie dressing or no dressing at all, they're weight-loss gold.

Start your days off right.

A fattening breakfast of bacon and eggs or a pastry can be replaced with yogurt, oatmeal, high-fiber, low-sugar cereals; or fresh fruit or fruit smoothies. However, for those on a low carb diet bacon and eggs are a great combo for breakfast, since neither have carbs. But don't fall into the trap of skipping breakfast. Eating a healthy breakfast increases your rest metabolic rate earlier in the day, and reduces snacking before lunch.

Plan your meals.

Look for healthy, delicious meals online or in your cookbooks, and create a menu for the week. Make sure that your meal plan reduces your total calorie intake: you're not going to lose weight if you consume the same amount of calories by eating different foods. Make a list of what you'll need for these meals, and -- except for a few snacks, of course -- don't stray from your list when you get to the market. Planning your meals helps ensure you get a balanced diet and reduces the temptation to stop off for fast food or order a pizza. Remember, it's easier to stick to your shopping list if you shop when you aren't hungry.

Watch your portion sizes.

Opening a bag of rice cakes and eating all of them in one sitting isn't going to help you lose weight. When eating chips, nuts, or dried fruit put a portion in a small bowl and then put the bag away. That way you won't mindlessly eat a larger portion than you had intended. Even if you only make minimal changes to your diet choices, reducing portion size will inevitably reduce caloric intake.
Graze on healthy snacks. Just because you're getting healthy doesn't mean you can't snack. In fact, eating small meals and snacks throughout the day, or grazing, has been shown to aid weight loss, (compared to eating three large meals a day), by keeping metabolism steadier. Pick snacks that are low in calories and fat and high in fiber (dried apricots, nuts, rice cakes, fruits, baby carrots, baby tomatoes, and so on). Vegetables are generally very low in calories, very high in fiber, and full of flavor and nutrition. Avoid starchy vegetables like potatoes, and try to eat vegetables plain, without fatty dressings or dips. Fruit also makes a good snack. Fruit contains more soluble fiber than vegetables, which slows your body's absorption of carbohydrates, thus releasing energy more slowly, (preventing sugar highs), and keeping you feeling full longer. Fruit juices are not a replacement for the real thing. You need that fiber, and juices often have more calories than the equivalent serving of fruit -- as many calories as soda! Be careful with dried fruits, because without the water, you tend to eat more, and fruits, when dried, are calorie-rich per ounce. With any dry or dried food, be sure to drink plenty of water.

Get more fiber.

There are many myths about fiber, but there is science to back up its helpful role in the diet. Fiber keeps the right amount of water in your intestines, making your digestive system work more efficiently and helping to keep you regular. Thus, just eating enough fiber may help you feel slimmer in just a day or so. There is also evidence that fiber in the diet can help prevent stroke and heart disease, ease the effects of diabetes, and may even directly help in weight loss.
Drink plenty of water. Adequate water is essential for health, and a great many people simply don't get enough. What's more, if you're chronically dehydrated, your body will retain water in unflattering places, so if you make sure to get plenty of fluids you can start visibly trimming down in as little as a day. Remember, the more you exercise, the more water you'll need. See the related wikiHow for more details on how much water you should be getting.

Exercise.

Remember, you can lose weight either by decreasing your calorie intake or increasing the number of calories you burn. Any health strategy should include both, but if you want to lose weight fast, exercise is essential.

Perform high-level aerobic activities.

Moderate aerobic workouts incorporating jogging, brisk walking, cycling, aerobic machines, or classes not only burn calories -- they also keep your heart healthy. Swimming is also great, especially if you are quite overweight or have joint problems, because you can get the same benefits of running -- typically burning even more calories -- with much less stress on your joints. Try to get at least 30-40 minutes of aerobic exercise at least three or four days per week.
Pump some iron.

Resistance training, (weight training), can help both sexes stay lean by building muscle and raising metabolism. The fact is, hours and hours of aerobic exercise won't help most people lose weight fast because your metabolism drops back to normal fairly quickly after stopping the exercise. If you gain muscle, however, your body's resting metabolism, (the amount of calories you burn when you're just sitting still), increases, because muscle requires a lot of calories to maintain. Studies have shown consistent weight training to raise the body's metabolism by 15%. This means an average woman might burn 200-300 more calories at rest every day! Resistance training is the gift that keeps on giving!

Rest properly.

This means not only taking at least 24-48 hours between strength training the same muscles, (and taking 1-2 days off from exercising each week); it also means getting enough sleep at night, since sleep deficiency impairs your ability to lose fat.
Be realistic. Don't expect a miracle. Healthy weight loss can be achieved fairly quickly, but you'll need to be patient. In addition, be sure to set realistic goals. Make sure that the weight you're trying to reach is a healthy weight for you, and keeping in mind that gaining pounds of muscle will help you lose fat, be trimmer, and look better even though you don't actually lose any weight. Your goal should be a healthy body, not a number of pounds!

Make adjustments.

A successful weight loss strategy based on reducing calorie intake and increasing activity can be adjusted to maintain your desired weight once you reach it. Unlike typical diets, this method is sustainable -- it is a lifestyle change, not a binge-and-purge exercise. Slowly adjust your diet and exercise to include more weight training and calories, as much as is comfortable for you. If you do gain any weight back, you want that weight to be lean, toned muscle, not fat. In addition, weight training, no matter what your age, prevents muscle atrophy and can help stave off osteoporosisis.



Tips

It's good to do a blood test before you begin your new diet and exercise regimen. Some people may not need to lose a lot of weight, but they may need to lower the blood sugar level slightly. You can also check for mineral deficiencies.

The goal is to lose fat, not just weight in general. If you are doing strength training during your weight loss (which you should be), you might actually see an initial gain in weight -- don't worry! You have probably lost fat and gained muscle, which is denser than fat.

A better measurement than what a scale reads is body fat percent. If you don't have access to calipers or a body fat scale, a better gauge is how your clothes fit and how you look rather than your absolute weight. If you can, though, it is good to measure your body fat about once per month. Men should be between 15%-25%, but no lower than 4%; and women 20%-30%, but no lower than 15%. Females have higher fat percentage due to pregnancy and menstrual requirements.

Generally, you want to - with a combination of calorie reduction and increased activity - reduce and burn a certain number of calories a day, causing a net loss of calories so your body is forced to use its own stores of fat. How much aerobic exercise you need to perform depends on what you eat, how fast you'd like to lose weight, and how much muscle you gain. A pound of fat contains 3500 calories. Men can safely lose around two pounds a week, and women can safely lose around one pound a week. Any more than this and you might be losing more muscle mass than fat. Thus, with a combination of calorie restriction and aerobic exercise, a man should aim to run a 3500-7000 calorie deficit each week, and women should aim for a 1750-3500 calorie deficit.

With regard to weights, men and women differ on their goals with weight training. Women, don't worry, no amount of weight training will make you as bulky as a man; women just don't have enough testosterone to build large muscles. The female bodybuilders you see are either taking steroids or training 2-3 hours every day.

Male and female beginners should start with 3 sets of 8-12 repetitions, and should use the heaviest weight you can while still maintaining good form, even to the last repetition of the last set. Get a weight training book or find a reputable website that will show you different exercises and the correct form. When lifting properly, you will stretch the muscle during the exercise, but you should still stretch properly to prevent injury!

No matter what the magazine article says, spot improving is a myth! When your body burns fat, it takes it from all over your body, even if all you do are crunches.

No amount of crunches will get rid of that gut if they are not backed up by proper aerobic exercise and diet! Washboard abs do not come from millions of sit ups; they come from having low levels of body fat. So if that is your goal, make sure you do plenty of aerobic exercise in addition to your ab routine.

Sugar comes in many disguises. Check your food labels: fructose, glucose, molasses, and corn syrup are all sugars. Limit all sugars, but especially stay away from high-fructose corn syrup. It is just a corn syrup full of sugar. Choosing foods without it will help you reach your weight loss goals faster.

Remember your body needs 'fuel' just like a car needs 'fuel'. Your body needs the 'right' kinds of food to lose weight effectively.

Despite popular belief it is not terrible to eat after 6 p.m. A reasonable dinner (with extra protein if you've had a good weight training session) is going to help deliver nutrients to the body to prepare it for the next day. Additionally if you find yourself very hungry before bed, a small bowl of high fiber cereal and low fat milk will actually help maintain your metabolism while you sleep. The key is to not overeat in the evenings.

Take a multivitamin. While it is better to always get your nutrients from your food, most people miss something in their diet, especially when they're trying to cut calories. Vitamins and minerals play an important role in keeping your body chemistry balanced and your energy levels healthy.

If you find yourself missing some of your favorite foods, don't worry. There is no harm in having your treat once a week. Pick a day each week where you treat yourself to your guilty pleasure--remember, everything in moderation. If it's pizza, try going to a gourmet pizza place that will use better ingredients and fresher vegetables. If it's a Big Mac, try making your own. A homemade burger is generally much healthier than the food they serve in fast food restaurants. Electric grills that are slanted to allow most of the fat to slide off make nice, lean burgers.

Save some calories for potassium and protein for after you work out, this will help reduce soreness. (A banana and an egg does the trick.)

Do not forget to stretch. Stretching can help increase your strength and flexibility.

Try to keep off weight gainer powder shakes if you want to lose weight. Fat can easily be turned into energy for your muscles so no need to use weight gainer.

Stay off of weight loss pills or shakes if you really want to keep those pounds off.

Take losing weight slow, keep a healthy diet but don't push it too hard.



Warnings

Do not try to starve yourself. In the short run, reducing your calorie intake to unhealthily low levels will slow metabolism and actually cause you to lose weight more slowly. In the long run, starving yourself (anorexia or bulimia) can kill you.

When creating a weight lifting routine, do not focus on a single muscle or group, doing so will overbuild that muscle while under building others - in other words, if you work your biceps, and not your triceps, your arms will begin to naturally curl inward and you will look silly. If you work your chest and not your back, you will have a hard time maintaining good posture as your pectoral muscles overpower your back muscles and pull your shoulders naturally forward.

If you have a serious medical condition (such as asthma or diabetes, or allergy to protein such as dairy products or you have lactose intolerance) or you are severely obese, consult with your doctor as well as a dietitian.

Do not take any harmful drugs. They are unhealthy and may ultimately make you gain weight instead.

Carefully consider whether you need dietary supplements. Most people can get the mineral and nutrients they need through eating food, For example, the multivitamin supplements can make you overdose in other vitamins you need, and you can't store most water-soluble vitamins like vitamin C as excess will be urinated. But just because you are under the recommended value don't always mean you are deficient in it. So only use supplements when the doctor and dietitian says you need to.

Despite the title of this article, getting into shape is best done slowly, and if you find yourself losing more than a pound or 2 (or more than 500g) each week, you are probably doing something wrong. Losing weight too quickly is dangerous and can have adverse effects on your health.

How to Take Good Care of Your Lungs

Humans need air, and cannot go more than a few minutes without it. Therefore, we must take good care of our lungs, which is what we use to take in air.

Steps

1. Never smoke. Notice how it doesn't say quit smoking, it says never smoke. That means don't start smoking in the first place, and don't even try it.

2. Increase your aerobic capacity. Do some vigorous exercise that really gets you gasping for breath 3-4 times a week.

3. Breathe in through your nose, especially around toxic fumes. The hair in your nose acts as a filter and only lets extremely fine particles through, and keeps the rest and combines it with mucus...

4. Watch what you inhale. There are many things that human lungs were not meant to inhale. Remember to breathe in through your nose when around them, but try to avoid them in the first place. Also, try to take shallow breaths so they don't go deep into your lungs. And after you are done being exposed to them, maybe make yourself cough to force them out. Some bad fumes include:

* Car exhaust and gasoline

* Tobacco smoke and regular smoke

* cleaning supplies

* Paint

* Talcum or baby powder - has tiny crushed rocks that stay in your lungs, use a corn starch based baby powder.

* Fiberglass and broken glass - fiberglass may make tiny cuts in your lungs, broken glass is less fine so it may not be bad at all.

Tips

* You will recover after being exposed to some things.

* You can't control everything you breathe in.

How to Eat Healthy for Life

Looking beautiful can only be effectively achieved if you control your diet. You can only control your diet if you know what you are eating. There are many popular diets on the market today. This article will explain how to eat healthy for life and avoid the fad diets.

Steps

1. Determine how many calories your body needs to function each day.

This number can vary wildly, depending upon your metabolism and how physically active you are. If you're the kind of person who puts on 10 pounds just smelling a slice of pizza, then your daily caloric intake should stay around 2000 calories for men, and 1500 calories for women. Your body mass also plays a part in this: More calories are suitable for naturally bigger people, and fewer calories for smaller people. If you're the kind of person who can eat anything he or she wants without putting on a pound, or you're physically active, you may want to increase your daily caloric intake to 3000-4000 calories, a little less for women. Also consider that the more muscle mass you have, the more calories you need to function. The bad fats are saturated and trans fat, which you do not need any of in moderation. Someone on a 2000 calorie diet should consume less than 20 grams of saturated fat a day, and trans fat can and should be avoided all together. The good fats are plain fat, which you should eat about 30% of your calories in, and poly and mono saturated fats.

2. Don't fear fatty foods.

You need to consume fat from foods for your body to function correctly. However, it's important to choose the right kinds of fat: Most animal fats and some vegetable oils are high in calories and are high in the kind of fats that raise your LDL cholesterol levels; the bad cholesterol. Contrary to popular belief, eating cholesterol doesn't necessarily raise the amount of cholesterol in your body. If you give your body the right tools, it will flush excess cholesterol from your body. Those tools are monounsaturated fatty acids, which you should try to consume regularly. These are the good fats, and they help lower the bad cholesterol in your body by raising the good cholesterol. Foods that are high in monounsaturated fatty acids are olive oil, nuts, fish oil, and various seed oils. Adding these "good" fats to your weekly diet can lower your cholesterol and reduce your risk of heart disease. Consider sautéing vegetables in small amounts of olive oil, and grabbing a hand full of mixed nuts for a snack instead of a candy bar. There are also various supplements that contain these good fats that you can take daily.
3. Carbohydrates are important.

You need to eat foods high in carbs since they are your body's main source of energy. The trick is to choose the right carbs. Simple carbs like sugar and processed flour are quickly absorbed by the body's digestive system. This causes a kind of carb overload, and your body releases huge amounts of insulin to combat the overload. Not only is the excess insulin bad on your heart, but it encourages weight gain. Insulin is the main hormone in your body responsible for fat storage. Eat plenty of carbs, but eat carbs that are slowly digested by the body like whole grain flour, hearty vegetables, oats, and unprocessed grains like brown rice. These kinds of food not only contain complex carbs that are slowly digested by the body, but are usually higher in vitamins and other nutrients that are beneficial to the body and they are higher in fiber which keeps your digestive system running smoothly.

4. Eat larger meals early in the day.

Your metabolism slows down towards the end of the evening and is less efficient at digesting foods. That means more of the energy stored in the food will be stored as fat and your body won't absorb as many nutrients from the meal. Many American families tend to have their big meal at dinner time. The problem with this is your day is basically over, and your body's need for energy isn't as great as it is early in the day. This large meal, late in the day, can also make you feel tired, and who wants to feel too tired to have fun now that the workday is over? Try eating a medium-sized meal for breakfast, a large meal for lunch, and a small meal for dinner. Better yet, try eating 4-6 small meals over the course of your day. That keeps your body fueled for the whole day without dumping a large amount of food into your stomach, which your body might have a hard time digesting.

5. Don't skip breakfast!

Many people do because they don't feel they need to eat breakfast, or they just don't feel hungry first thing in the morning. Research shows that people who skip breakfast are usually fatter than those who eat a well balanced breakfast. Although you might not feel hungry first thing in the morning, if you skip breakfast you will feel extra hungry come lunch time, making you more prone to overeating for your afternoon meal. In addition, skipping breakfast makes your body think that you are starving. After all, by lunch time, you may not have eaten in almost eighteen hours. For the rest of the day after you skip breakfast, your body will store up most of the energy you get from food, instead of allowing you to burn it, in anticipation of food scarcity. Not only will this cause you to be tired during the day when your body isn't using the food that you ate, but the extra energy stored up will result in weight gain.

6. Make eating fun.

Avoiding simple carbs and fatty foods doesn't need to be boring. Have fun not only with the food, but with the meal. Eating with family and friends makes the meal more satisfying than eating in front of the TV or in the car on the way home from work. You will also eat slower when enjoying your meal which gives your body time to feel full before you burst a button. There are more creative cooking resources available to us than ever before. You can find great tasting recipes in magazines, books, and right here on the Internet. Eating baked fish three or four times a week can get boring, so do a little recipe hunting to find more exciting ways to prepare your meals.

7. Buy non-fat or reduced fat foods.

This is done not to avoid getting fat, because eating fat will not make you fat. And it's not about eating less Calories. It's about control. Control over what kinds of fats you put in your body. For instance, olive oil has many health benefits, so buy non-fat or reduced fat salad dressing and add a table spoon of olive oil to the jar. You'll have a salad dressing that tastes great, and is also better for your health. So buy the non-fat foods so you can replace the missing fat with "good" fats. Remember, you do need to eat a moderate amount of fat each day.

8. Give yourself a cheat day.

Cheating doesn't mean pigging all day on all the wrong foods once a week, it means enjoying a food you really love once a week. Have a couple slices of greasy pizza on Sundays, or a big slice of double chocolate cake on Saturdays. This cheat day will help you stick to the change in diet, and in some ways it's actually good for your body. Special occasions, such as birthdays in the family, count as cheat days.

9. Avoid excess amounts of alcohol.

You know that heavy drinking is bad for your body, but it's also bad for your will power. A heavy night of drinking could send you to the fridge pigging out on all the wrong foods. However, many studies show that a beer or glass of wine a day is actually good for the body. Wine contains anti-oxidants which help fight illness and that moderate amount of alcohol can help you relax. Excess caffeine can also be bad for the body since caffeine stimulates your body into producing insulin in the same way that carbs do.

Tips

* Eating healthy will give you some health benefits, but you won't achieve the full benefits possible unless you exercise. Exercising doesn't have to be hard, and you don't even have to break a sweat. Just going for a short 30 minute walk four times a week will greatly improve your health.

* If you consume more Calories than your body needs each day, your body will store the excess energy as fat. In today's society, that excess body fat is unnecessary. We are no longer hunter/gatherers. Your next meal is as close as your local grocery store and we don't need extra energy stores to hold us over till the next meal.

* Use extra virgin olive oil when cooking. It's more pure, and is better for your heart than other kinds of olive oil. The darker the better. Furthermore, "light" olive oil has as many Calories as extra virgin olive oil -- the "light" refers to the color and flavor intensity. Unfortunately, though, using extra virgin olive oil when cooking at higher temperatures ruins the flavors that make it "extra virgin".
* This takes patience. You won't see a drastic drop in your cholesterol level or weight or increase in your energy level immediately. You need to give the changes in diet some time to kick in.

* Have a positive and upbeat attitude. If you start your new diet thinking "This is something I have to do," instead of "This is something I want to do," then you've already failed before you started.

* Don't let a little cheating turn into a lot of cheating. Remember, nothing tastes as good as being healthy feels.

* Adding whole, unrefined grains to the diet can add valuable vitamins and minerals that would otherwise be lost, however it can completely upset our digestion as well. Many animals that eat grains have 4 stomachs they use to digest them adequately, and ferment them so they can uptake nutrients. Humans have only one stomach, and if you introduce grains without first fermenting or sprouting them you may experience digestive upsets. There are various anti nutrients in grains (like phytic acid) and enzyme inhibitors that will prevent mineral absorption and lead to deficiencies and digestive problems. To remedy this, take oatmeal and soak it the night before in a little bit of yogurt. This will make it taste slightly sour, but make it more digestible. Sourdough bread is also another good example.

* Lettuce is a great choice of natural fiber, and can taste great with the proper healthy dressings. You can make a great salad with nuts, raisins, and whole wheat croutons. Mix it in a bowl so it's evenly distributed and place it on top of a salad. Use a sugar free and low carb balsamic dressing; it has less than 1 gram of carbohydrates and 0 Calories. The head of lettuce is 21 Calories, plus the nuts and raisins and whole wheat croutons which could range depending on size but for this example we will estimate 100 Calories, bringing you a very low calorie and filling meal for only ~120 Calories.

* Choose wheat bread instead of white bread. Processed carbohydrates such as those found in white bread are harder to draw nutrients from, and therefore are seen as empty Calories.

* Smoothies are great for breakfast. Combine the following:
o banana
o 4 medium-size strawberries
o 1/2 cup of skim milk

* For protein, try adding boneless skinless chicken breasts, or tuna.

* Non-fat yogurt can make a great snack, and its healthy bacteria can help with various stomach problems.

* Carry water with you at all times. Try to drink water in place of soft drinks and other flavored beverages. A good rule of thumb is to drink half your body weight in ounces per day.

* Consider eating organic. Organic food isn't made with the use of a lot of harmful chemicals, or other harmful processes. Not only is organic food good for you, but it is sustainable and good for the environment too! Other foods can be extremely harmful to the environment.


Warnings

* Rarely have organic foods been proven to be more healthy than the regular option, so don't think that just because it is organic, you can eat as much as you want. There have been no proven studies that the non-organic foods are unhealthy because of chemicals. Much of the time, the organic option has just as many calories as the normal option. So even if it is organic, make sure you pay attention to your caloric intake.

* You should always consult your doctor before making drastic changes to your diet and your lifestyle.

* Excess body fat is hard on your body. It's hard on your heart because it needs to work extra hard to push blood through your larger body. Your body builds extra veins that run through the extra body fat and has to work harder to push blood through those veins.

* Excess body weight is also hard on your muscles and joints. Carrying around extra weight puts more pressure on your knees, hips, and back. While this might not have a huge effect in your youth, you will feel it as you get older.

* Any drastic change in your diet can cause constipation, so make sure you eat a lot of dark green leafy vegetables, or take a fiber supplement. The constipation will go away after a week or two, but you should consult your doctor if it continues.

* Make sure there isn't a lot of unhealthy food in your house that can tempt you. Give or throw away the foods you shouldn't eat.

How to Breathe Like a Yoga Master

You don't have to vacation in the Himalayas to learn to breathe like a Buddha. From the Pranayama tradition of yoga comes the "Complete Breath," which is a relaxing way to beat stress and improve your state of mind.

Steps

1. Lie flat while you are down on your back on the floor, a comfortable mat, or a firm mattress.

2. Place your hands on your abdomen an inch or two apart just below the navel, with your fingertips facing inward and your palms down.

3. Inhale through the nose and begin expanding the abdomen.

4. Continue inhaling. When the abdomen rises slightly, begin allowing the chest to expand and the abdomen to fall.

5. When the chest rises slightly, begin exhaling. Allow the abdomen to continue to fall.

6. Continue exhaling. As the chest empties, allow the abdomen to begin to rise again.

7. Repeat without pausing.

Tips

* It can be tricky to get the hang of this at first, but it helps to imagine the breathing cycle as a circle. During each cycle, the chest and abdomen rise and fall in a smooth, uninterrupted manner.

* Each inhalation/exhalation cycle should require several seconds to complete. Use a pace that is comfortable for you, but the deeper and slower you are able to breathe, the better.

Warnings

* If you begin to feel light-headed or experience other unusual phenomena, do not continue the exercise.

Treatment for Oily Skin with Tomatoes

Its summer and a very bad news for those who have Oily skin. But here I am going to tell you a method thats going to help you get rid of Chip Chip and Acne.
This routine will help make your oily skin feel cleaner and tighter. It will also reduce open pores and blackheads, all with the help of tomatoes!

Steps

Cut a tomato in half with a knife, better sharp.

Rub the tomato halves on your skin briefly.

Leave the juice on for at least fifteen minutes. Let the skin soak in the juice, so that it saturates into the skin pores.

Wash your skin with warm water, then wash with cool water. This closes skin pores and helps keep bacteria from spreading.

Pat your skin dry with a towel.

Tips

Tomatoes are acidic and contain potassium and Vitamin C. That's why tomatoes are excellent for oily skin!

Always pat your face dry with a towel. Rubbing can spread bacteria, causing pimples. It also increases the chance of more wrinkles.

Warnings

Don't try this if you are allergic to tomatoes!

Things You'll Need

How to Stay Safe in the Sun

Its now summer. We all know summer is hot but to make it cool we do some outdoor activities and therefore we expose our skin to SUN. Excessive sun exposure can cause sunburn, skin damage, skin cancer (the most common form of cancer), cataracts, and heat stroke. Take the right precautions to avoid these hazards and enjoy the sun safely.

Steps

1. Select an appropriate sunscreen.

2. Check your sunscreen's SPF. SPF, or "sun protection factor", is one of the most important things to check. This number describes how effective the sunscreen is. Look for at least SPF 30.

* Keep in mind that SPF is not cumulative. Applying one SPF 15 sunscreen and another SPF 20 sunscreen may give you slightly better coverage, but it does not add up to SPF 35.

3. Look for both UVA and UVB coverage. This means that the sunscreen will block both kinds of damaging ultraviolet light.

4. Look for a PABA-free sunscreen. Para-aminobenzoic acid, or PABA, was used in sunscreens for a long time, but it can stain clothing and cause an allergic reaction in some people.

5. Waterproof? Choose a water-resistant sunscreen, if you will be swimming or sweating. No sunscreen is truly waterproof, so you should reapply the sunscreen frequently, according to package instructions.

6. Choose a sunscreen that suits you. Some daily sunscreens aren't as gooey or smelly as some of the heavy-duty outdoor sport formulations. Some sunscreens come in spray-on, roll-on, and stick formats. Some sunscreens come with built-in insect repellent. Some even temporarily turn your skin a different color! If you dislike wearing it so much that you don't, it will do you no good. Wearing sunscreen need not be unpleasant, so smell and try different sunscreen brands and styles to find the one(s) that are best suited for you.

* The word "sunblock" is a misnomer. Sunscreen slows the effects of the sun on skin by absorbing, reflecting, and scattering UV rays, but it doesn't stop them.

7. Apply plenty of sunscreen. Apply the sunscreen generously. If you're using a cream, the amount of sunscreen you should use is about the size of a regular golf-ball, or 1 oz.

8. Start ahead of time. Ideally, begin applying sunscreen at least a half hour before you go out.

* It takes approximately 20 minutes for sunscreen to become effective after it has been applied.

9. Use more than you think you need. Most people do not use enough sunscreen, stopping at somewhere between one fourth and one half the quantity applied to test sunscreens.

10. Don't just grease it on. Put a little on and rub it in. Then do it again and again, until you have a deep, penetrating layer of sunscreen. Do it right and you won't notice it at all and it will truly protect.

11. Don't miss a spot! Be thorough. Put it on the most vulnerable areas: the entire face and forehead, especially the nose and tips of ears, back of the neck, backs of knees, and arms. Make sure to cover all skin that will be exposed. Don't forget the tops of feet, if you're wearing sandals. Have a friend help with hard-to-reach spots like backs and shoulders.

12. Keep your sunscreen relatively fresh. Expired sunscreen may not be as effective as recently-purchased sunscreen, but in general, any sunscreen is better than no sunscreen. If there's no expiration date, try it and see if it still works, or replace anything older than about three years.

13. A wide-brimmed hat. Cover up. Light layers of clothing work best, in light colors which reflect heat, rather than dark ones, which absorb it. Try a shell or tank top, and then wear a light camp shirt open over that. Natural fibers like cotton are coolest.

14. Wear the right hat. Choose a hat with at least a 3-inch (8 cm) brim all around. A hat will also help to keep you cool. Baseball caps leave the ears and neck exposed, so they're not the best choice for sun protection. A hat will also help to protect your eyes from glare.

15. Wear light-colored, loose fitting clothing. It will keep you cooler and help prevent sunburn by reflecting the sunlight. Be aware, though, that clothing may not block sunlight completely. In fact, an ordinary t-shirt may only be the equivalent of SPF 5. Look for clothing designed to block sun, even up to SPF 50, if you spend a lot of time outdoors.

16. They do more than look cool. Wear sunglasses. Choose sunglasses that block UV light and wrap around to block light from the side, too. If you're not sure whether your old sunglasses adequately block UV, ask an optometrist to have them checked. Long term exposure to UV light can lead to cataracts. Wear sunglasses in conjunction with a hat.

17. Drink plenty of water. Stay hydrated. Water is the best choice. If you'll be exercising heavily, a sports drink can help to replace electrolytes. Drink in proportion to how much you perspire, but remember that too much too quickly can harm you. It's best to take frequent, moderate portions. Too much sugar, as in soda, can undermine the benefits of the liquid, and alcohol can dehydrate you outright.

18. Relax in the shade. Stay out of the sun. Especially between 10am and 4pm, stay out of the sun as much as possible. Finding a spot in the shade, carrying an umbrella or parasol, and scheduling outdoor activities to avoid those hours can help to minimize exposure.

19. A one-armed "trucker's tan". Limit your total time in the sun. Roll up car windows and run the air conditioning rather than dangling your arm out the window. Glass blocks UV light reasonably well.

20. Keep cool. If you have heavy physical activity to perform outside, try to do it in the morning or evening, not the heat of midday. Choose a shady spot to sit. Sip a cool drink. Take a swim.

Tips

* Use the 5-S mnemonic to remember sun safety:

1. Slop on some sunscreen (at least SPF 30).

2. Slurp up some water.

3. Slip on a shirt—you can buy SPF 50 shirts and clothing now.

4. Slap on a sun hat—with at least a 3" brim all the way around, not a baseball hat.

5. Step into the shade.

* Use these tips in combination. That is, put on sunscreen, SPF-protective clothing, and a hat. Stay in the shade during the worst parts of the day.

* Remember that children need to be educated, not just greased up! Teach them why skin cancer is far and away the most common cancer, how sun damage causes it, and how to protect themselves.

* Keep sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat available. Leave them in your bag or vehicle so that they'll be there when you need them.

* Don't forget your lips, they can get burned too. Slather on a lip balm with SPF 15+.

* A T-shirt isn't always effective: the SPF of a plain White T-shirt can be as low as 4!

* Some fabric dyes are commercially available to raise the SPF of fabrics to as much as 30. Shop around if you spend a lot of time in the sun.

Warnings

* Sunscreen is not a complete solution by itself, nor a license to spend unlimited time outdoors.

* It's possible to get sunburned on a cloudy day, and it's possible that the clouds will clear up during the day. Take and use sun protection even if it's cool and cloudy when you leave.

* It is possible to get burned through clothing. Clothing typically has between a 3-10 SPF. Wet clothing has even less. To be safe, apply sunscreen underneath clothing. However reapplying under clothing or under bathing suits can be cumbersome; therefore, an easier alternative might be washing clothes with a product that offers protection to clothes, such as Rit Sun Guard, which can provide an UPF (Ultra-Violet Protection) of 30 to clothes and lasts for 20 washes.

* If possible, you should purchase a sunscreen that is paraben-free. Parabens have been linked to breast cancer.
