Cutting back on the lattes, avoiding the vending machines and
exercising regularly can pay off -- up to $2,489 a year. Oh,
and you might live longer.
Some Ideas on how to lose weight
- Slow down when you eat ...
sit your fork down in between bites.
- Drink plenty of water.
- I need to lose some
weight, I have come to realize that there is a
difference between what you think you eat and what you
actually did.
- For every extra 250
calories you must walk 1/4 to one mile. Or you can do a
mitzvah that day of 1/4 hour to 1/2 hour to help someone.
If you watching Tv get up and do something during the
commercials.

Melanson had 30 normal-weight college-age women consumer a
large bowl of pasta. They were asked to eat the food quickly.
On a second occasion they were asked to eat the same meal -
but to really take their time.

- Eating quickly -
consumed 646 calories in 9 minutes.
- Eating slowly
- consumed 579 calories in 29 minutes.
Food for the Soul
Just as there are foods that
are good for the body and foods that are harmful, so there are
foods that nourish the inner person -- the soul -- and foods
that harm it.
Without food
we can not live... We all have heard the famous line, "Man
does not live by bread alone...."

fat, protein and carbohydrates or "comfort foods." Some common comfort
foods include ice cream, chocolate, pizza, macaroni and cheese and fast
food to name a few. These components work chemically in the brain to
temporarily improve one’s mood. |
