Withdrawal doesn't work or protect you from HIV

6/10/2013

1 Comment

 
Withdrawal is not an effective contraceptive method. You will probably get pregnant if you rely on this method. You are also at risk for infections. Condoms protect you from pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections. Remember HIV is alive and well and out there. You can't tell by looking at someone that they are infected. Be safe, get tested, protect yourself! You can do an oral HIV test and get the result in 20 minutes. Ask your partner to get tested also.

Eat a wide variety of vegetables

Eat a wide variety of vegetables, including dark greens. Along with the many outstanding nutrients, the fiber in vegetables (and whole fruits) will help you feel full.
Try to eat a fruit with breakfast and salad or vegetables with lunch and dinner every day.

Just pick one thing

11/7/2012

I realize that a lot of the things we have talked about, you have probably heard them before, and I have said them before, but are you putting them into practice? They say it takes 21 days to form a habit. If you try to change too many things at once, you may not be successful. So pick one habit, just one thing that you think you can do. Can you eat more vegetables? Can you eat a fruit every day? Can you drink a glass of water before each meal? Can you walk on the spot for 15 minutes while you are watching the news? Just pick one thing and try to stick with it for 21 days. When you have got that one down, pick another thing and see if you can nail that for 21 days. You will be surprised at what you can accomplish. Slow and steady wins the race!
Love yourself, take care of your health!

Add more activity to your day

11/6/2012

You can add more activity into your day by making some small adjustments, including:
• Parking at the farthest end of the parking lot.
• Taking the stairs instead of the elevator.
• Going for a walk on your lunch break.
• Walking to work, school, to get groceries, etc.
• Playing with your kids and/or pet.
• Doing sit-ups, dancing, walking on the spot or jogging on a treadmill while watching TV.
Every little bit helps!

Eat a variety of whole fruit

Eat a variety of whole fruit, rather than fruit juice. "The whole fruit has more fiber, it's more filling, and it's naturally sweet." Have a fruit as a snack when you are craving something sweet. Less calories, less sugar, more fiber, more vitamins!

Start moving!

You should strive to exercise for 30 to 60 minutes on most days of the week. Vary your routine to include aerobic exercises (jogging, dancing, swimming, kickboxing) and light weight training. The aerobic exercises raise your heart rate, which helps burn calories, while weight training adds muscles mass to your body. Muscle burns calories faster than fat, so the more muscle you have, the more calories you'll burn. If you haven't been physically active in awhile, you'll need to start slowly (for just 5 minutes if you feel too tired at first) and work your way up to longer, more intense workout. A great way to start moving is by taking a walk outside.

Avoid fast foods

Bake, grill, steam or broil food instead of frying it. Avoid fast foods and fried food. Try to cook at home rather than buy on the road. What you cook yourself will usually be more healthy than what you buy.

Exercise

Lack of physical activity is the second most important contributor to preventable deaths, trailing only tobacco use. 
Take the stairs, park on the far end of the parking lot, do housework or yard work, walk during your lunch hour or walk on the spot while you watch TV.
Exercise. The more the better and anything is better than nothing.
