Steps to Better Health and an Out of This World Sex life. :)
March is National Nutrition Month, a time to evaluate your food selections and eating habits. Here are a few recommendations to help you maintain a healthier lifestyle and maybe add more spice in the bedroom.
- Phone calls have fewer calories than snacks, unless you eat and talk at the same time. Try to eat more nutritious snacks such as dry fruits, nuts and seeds.
- Eat in moderation.
- Go natural. Consume more whole grains, legumes, fruits and vegetables.
- When it comes to dessert, desert the table and limit your consumption of refined sugars.
- Go easy on alcoholic beverages. Get high on water.
- Check to see if your number is up by having your blood cholesterol tested. A desirable number is under 200.
- Become a private investigator and make it your business to examine food labels.
- Walk!
- Add more spice to your life. Use herbs and spices in place of salt.
- Expose yourself to the natural sunlight. This is one way to get your Vitamin D. About 15 minutes will do it.
- Limit your fat intake to fewer than 30% of your total calories for the day.
- Make meat a side dish and not the main course.
- Keep a tight rein on fry foods. Bake, boil, broil, poach or steam.

Online Dating: 5 ways to benefit your search by Ivana
It cannot have escaped your attention that the well-trodden paths of conventional dating have been looking a little empty of late as thousands of people are taking the game online. For many it’s liberating and enables the shyer among us to take the time to construct a profile and build a relationship slowly and carefully. Here are a few tips on how to make the most of this wealth of opportunity:
1. Decide on your objective
Whether you’re looking for casual friendships that might become something more or you’re in the market for marriage, there are services to suit your every need. So choose your dating website carefully, as deliberate selection will lead to more fruitful results.
2. A recent – and natural – photo is vital
Of course it's tempting to use that old photo of you from 10 years ago, or the more recent one that's been edited to within an inch of its life, but by having something simple and likeable from the beginning, you’re putting yourself in far better stead to meet someone real. Of course you don't need to show what you look like first thing in the morning right off the bat, but something natural and expressive of your personality and interests will make you far more compelling.
3. It's quality not quantity
Don't be afraid to be a little specific in your profile. It’s important to remember you’re looking for someone who responds to you, not a superhero with your face. So maybe you don't have aspirations to donate your possessions to charity and go off to find yourself on top of a mountain, but finding someone who‘ll veg out on the sofa on a Sunday with you will be far more gratifying in the long run than admiring responses from people who don't match you. The same goes for the emails you send: don't hedge your bets by sending mass proposals to as many people as you can; find some who truly interest you and message them individually.
4. Easy does it
A little apprehensive of the pressure that a full-on dinner date might bring? Why not try easing yourself into it with a quick coffee Think of it as something of a pre-date: it will enable you to scope each other out, without the nerves that can sometimes overtake potentially awkward situations, and you can decide to take it further from there.
5. Don't lose heart!
It isn't about finding anyone – it’s about finding someone special. If you’ve chosen your dating website carefully and been realistic, then you’re in the same boat as very many others looking for the same kind of thing. So don't be disheartened if your search appears fruitless to begin with: you’re not looking for a quick fix, but a long-term conclusion, which deserves some time and patience.
