STOP Losing Weight

Why Your Best Friend Tells You to STOP Losing Weight, Even When You Have MANY Pounds to Go!

Expert Author Berta Prevosti
When a client reports difficulties sticking to her food plan for the week, I ask what happened to throw her off track. Sometimes she can identify the problem, but often she cannot. Unfortunately, when this happens, I know just where to look. You see, some upsets don't quite register, and this is more likely to occur when the source of the upset is someone close to you. Today, I would like to address a phenomenon that you might feel uncomfortable acknowledging. In fact, you might find yourself feeling protective and defensive when you read what I have to say, but nevertheless, it bears careful discussion.
Ladies, I hate to say it, but your sisters and girlfriends are very likely to undermine your efforts to get healthy and fit. Yes, the women in your lives, the very women who love you, often threaten your success. Therefore, it is my unfortunate duty to warn every woman I counsel to watch out for them! None want to believe me, and most don't want to talk about it, but the head-in-the-sand strategy never works and, in this case, it can get you into real trouble. Silence will not change the regrettable truth!
Before I go on, let me reiterate an important fact. The women in your life do love you, and they are happy for your weight loss success! It's just that it pushes their buttons. When you are suddenly in a different, wonderful place, they become a bit off balance. They have to shift their long-standing image of you and in the process create a different relationship with the new you. I can already hear the protests: "I'm still the same person I always was, I just lost weight!" No, ladies, you are not. You have worked long and hard, and you are a new person. Admit it and embrace it. You don't just look different on the outside. Your outer appearance is the physical manifestation of your inner beauty, the beauty you have rediscovered on what you mistakenly believe is merely a weight loss journey.
It is unfortunate, but the enormity of your metamorphosis can cause real anxiety among your friends, and it is important that you understand their feelings so you do not judge them harshly. Let me share a couple of stories to illustrate my point. The first happened many years ago and was my first experience of sisterly sabotage. This is Judy's story.
A woman in her early 30s, Judy had a bit over 100 pounds to lose to get to her goal of 125 pounds. As the months went by and Judy stayed strong, losing steadily, she and I both heard compliments from everyone! There were many oohs and ahhs and lots of talk about how amazing she looked. At that point, nobody really thought Judy would lose it all. They had been down this road with her many times; however, they were rooting for her, encouraging her, and their praise was entirely sincere. Judy was looking more beautiful every day, enjoying the positive attention, and finally developing the self-esteem and self-confidence she sorely lacked in the past. Then, around the time the scale registered 150 pounds, she began to sense a change in her friends' attitudes. Their comments started to take on a different tone, one that Judy did not pick up on at first. You see, it began to look as if Judy were actually going to make it, that she would attain her goal for the first time, ever. Instead of words of encouragement, her girlfriends started using words of warning. "Stop it, Judy. You're wasting away," they observed with concern.
Wasting away? Were they serious? Oh, yes they were! Quite a few of them even called me, since they knew I was behind this blasphemy! A close girlfriend of Judy's who weighed 150 pounds and was also seeing me for weight loss called and said, "What is going on with Judy? I just saw her, and she looks like a skeleton! You need to stop it!" She was very angry. Now, I ask you, how could a 150-pound woman, herself working to lose 25 pounds, think that 152-pound Judy looked like a "skeleton"? I honestly couldn't believe that she was serious, and I saw red when she finished her tirade with, "For goodness' sake, Berta, you can see her bones. I think she's becoming anorexic."
Marshaling every ounce of self-control, I retorted, "We're seeing her cheekbones because they are not hidden under 75 pounds of fat! We are supposed to see our cheekbones, as well as our collarbones and our knees and ankles. Furthermore, anorexia is a very serious psychological disorder, and it drives me mad when people use it so blithely to denigrate others. Judy is eating healthfully for the first time and finally feeling like an attractive woman. She does not deserve to be put down for doing so, and I would appreciate it if you did not play with her head and share your outrageous thoughts with her!"
I was too late. A few of Judy's other friends had jumped on the "skeleton" bandwagon, pontificating about the dangers of eating disorders and haranguing her to stop the madness. It didn't take long before Judy began to wonder if she had, in fact, gone too far and developed anorexia! Needless to say, her food logs began to reflect her wavering commitment to herself. I was new at this, and the audacity of these women made my blood boil! Why were they doing this? What were they actually saying? Were they angry that Judy was finally taking care of herself? Were they indignant that she might reach her goal? Were they unwilling for her to be one of them? Were they incapable of accepting that they no longer had a "fat friend"? It fell to me to help Judy understand what was going on. In truth, her friends were not consciously trying to hurt her. They believed they were sincerely concerned only for Judy's well being.
I know the friends sound petty and jealous, and you might wonder why Judy wanted to hang onto them. So, let's think about it. Have you ever reacted in a similar manner to a friend's unexpected transformation, inner or outer? Have you ever thought or said unkind words about a sister's newly emerging beauty? My guess is that we have all done it at some point. All of us. And since we have all done it, we should look within, not intent upon self-recrimination, but rather with an eye toward gaining an understanding of our very human nature.
If Judy's friends had been reflective, they would eventually have come to the realization that their jealousy and resentment was rooted in fear: fear of change. As Judy learned to love and accept herself, her relationship with others gradually changed. This was her choice, but it put her friends into the position of also having to change in order to assimilate the new Judy into their lives. Some of them might have felt "safe" around Judy, who was not the most popular girl on the block. Others were accustomed to calling the shots, since Judy never insisted on getting her way. Others knew they could rely on Judy to do anything because she was a people-pleaser, first and foremost, and she never said "no." Her inner work allowed Judy to begin changing certain behaviors, and then she lost weight. So you see, Judy's changed behavior evoked her friends' fears, but it appeared that the weight loss was to blame for bringing up their jealousy. Happily, Judy was able to get past her friends' issues. She learned that she could not control their thoughts and feelings, nor did she want to. For the first time in her life, Judy was in control of the only person who mattered: Judy. In the end, she kept her friends and lost the weight and has maintained both for many years!
Donna started with me at 290 pounds. She had spent most of her adult life in one unsuccessful attempt after another to lose weight. Working with me, she finally started eating properly and thinking differently, mostly about herself. By the time she lost 50 pounds, she, too, began to hear odd comments from the women in her life. When she got down to about 240 pounds, her cousin called and said, "You are out of control! You have got to stop losing. You're wasting away to nothing! You look like a skeleton!" Donna didn't think much about this conversation, but she had a bad week for the first time in months. It took some probing to jog her memory about the cousin's warning because Donna got it: "Wasting away" at 240 pounds? A 240-pound "skeleton"? Her cousin could not be serious! So, Donna thought she had put it out of her mind. But it bothered her. Why? Because it was her own cousin and very dear friend, and there was that hint of jealousy. That threw Donna off track and her food log proved it.
I was able to show Donna that her cousin's skeleton sermon was a symptom of her fear. Donna, you see, had always been the heaviest woman in the family, and now she was closing the gap between her cousin and her for the first time in their lives. Once Donna understood that part, true to form, she was beset by feelings of guilt for causing her cousin's unhappiness. Clearly, Donna had more inner work to do: she still had to learn that nobody "makes" anybody feel any particular way!
Donna had to endure a few more skeleton sermons on her journey! Down to 220 pounds, she went to see a close friend whom she had not seen in months. When the friend opened the door, the sight of Donna was so upsetting to her that she actually started to cry, and they were clearly not tears of joy! The friend didn't know how to explain what was happening, and so she put it on Donna. "You've gone too far," she warned. "You're nothing but a bag of bones." But Donna could see through this. By now she realized and accepted the truth that she had been playing the safe "fat friend" for a number of women in her life. I hate to use that term, but for Donna, being the "fat friend" was a troubling reality. It's very hard to look at your closest friends and suspect that you're in their lives because you're the "fat friend" who makes them feel good about themselves. Ultimately, Donna mustered the strength to bring this truth to light and address the friend's issues. She was only able to do so because she had come to see that most people process change by determining what effect it will have on them and only them. Her friend's reaction to Donna's new appearance had nothing to do with how she felt about Donna: it had everything to do with how she felt about herself.
Is there anything you can do to change all of this? Sometimes asking why they are no longer supportive can have the effect of holding up a mirror to the green-eyed monsters, showing them someone they don't want to be. But again, let me say this: they love you! You get that, right? This is not about you; it is about them. They don't feel good about some part of themselves and here you go taking away the comfort you have provided them in the past. They just want their "fat friend" back! They don't want to have to confront their own inability to commit to themselves and make much needed changes. Furthermore, if the "fat friend" can become slim, then they can't rationalize the state of their bodies by thinking only super- models are slender, and real woman are round! You've given them a lot to think about, and you know what they're going through because you started right where they are! Have compassion for both of you.
I apologize for having to bring this distasteful phenomenon into the light; thankfully, I am a woman and can get away with saying all of this. I hope you understand that I am not woman bashing, but rather just stating an unattractive fact of life. My purpose is not to suggest you drop your friends or avoid all women, not to plant seeds of anger and resentment, but rather to warn you of the effect other women's fears can have on your determination to care for yourself. I know that when it happens you will be surprised and hurt, so try to remember that they do not hate you and do not mean to hurt you; they are just terribly afraid. Armed with this knowledge, perhaps you can face the skeleton sermons and sabotage by honoring the women who have not yet conquered their fears. I know that I hold up all of the women in my life, not in spite of, but because of, all they have gone through. I revere them, and I honor them every day. So please, do not put down your friends, your cousins, your sisters, and your sister friends. Diminish them neither in your heart nor mind; neither with your thoughts nor your words; neither in private nor in public. Wish for them more than you have, and you will be blessed with amazing women in your life. Women just like you!

Gum Diseases - Types and Cure

Gum Diseases - Types and Cure

  
Expert Author Dr Sunil Phol
A healthy mouth is the first and the most important step towards a healthy body. We all are aware of this fact but still we are very complacent towards it. Keeping a healthy mouth will ensure that our gums are healthy and we are away from many systematic diseases such as Heart Disease, Diabetes and Respiratory problems.
Gingivitis:
In Dental terminology, gum disease is popularly known as Gingivitis. Infect this is the mildest form of Periodontal Disease. The symptoms of Gingivitis are red and swollen gums also accompanied by bleeding. When you are suffering from this disease you will not experience any discomfort and can be easily treated. The main reason why people suffer from it is because of the inadequate and negligent oral hygiene. However the treatment is possible if handled on time by visiting a dentist and also following the proper oral hygiene at home.
Periodontitis:
It's been said that an injury is left untreated can turn into a serious problem and more severe injury. The same is true with Gingivitis. If this disease is left unattended or not treated at the right time, it will turn into a Periodontal Disease. As time passes by, plaque spreads more and more on teeth and starts to grow under the gum line. Plaque contains bacteria and these bacteria carry with them acid which irritates the gums. These acids or toxins starts a chronic inflammatory simulation where in the tissues and the bones that support the teeth starts to break down and eventually gets destroyed. The gum starts separating from the teeth which create gap between teeth and gums. These gaps get infected. The more we neglect this condition the more worst it gets. The gaps become deeper and eventually the gum tissue and the bone attached to the gums get destroyed.
Periodontal Disease comes in many forms and the most popular forms are mentioned below:
1. Aggressive Periodontitis: This sort of periodontal disease occurs even if you are otherwise healthy. A patient suffering from aggressive Periodontitis is likely to face - rapid attachment loss and bone destruction and familial aggregation.
2. Chronic Periodontitis: This is the most common form of Periodontal Disease. It results in inflammation among the tissues that support the teeth and bone loss. This form of gum disease occurs when you ignore your gingivitis problem. The other fact associated with Periodontitis is that it is commonly found in adults but can also occur at any age.
3. Periodontitis as a manifestation of systemic diseases: Do you know that at least 16 diseases are associated with Periodontitis? Shocking as it may sound but it is true. This generally begins at a very early age. The most common for Systematic Diseases are - Heart Disease, Respiratory Disease and Diabetes.
4. Necrotizing periodontal diseases: This is the inflammatory type of periodontal disease which is caused by the bacteria. The infection is caused by the death of the gingival tissues, periodontal ligament and alveolar bone.
That's the in-depth explanation of various types of gum diseases. The only way to avoid any treatment on your teeth is by following proper oral hygiene so that you don't end up losing your teeth.

العدس


العدس وقود الشتاء، فهو معروف بخصائصه العاليةلإعطاء الاحساس بالدفء والقدرة على مقاومة البرد القارس في ليالي الشتاء في كل الاشكال والطرق التي يمكن تناوله بها، خاصة حساء العدس او شوربة العدس. ومثله مثل جميع البقوليات، يحتوي على كميات عالية من البروتين والكربوهدرات او النشويات والالياف، وكميات قليلة من الدهون، ما يجعله ايضا من افضل الاغدية المتوازنة التي توفر للجسم الكثير من احتياجاته الغذائية من املاح معدنية هامة ومجموعة "فيتامينات ب" التي تتميز بها جميع البقوليات.
ويمكن استخدام استخدام العدس منفردا، كحساء او شربة دافئة، ما يجعله بديل جيدا للحوم، لكن يفضل تناوله مع مصدر جيد لفيتامين "س"، مثل الخدروات الورقية وعصير الليمون، لزيادة امتصاص البروتين والحديد الموجود فيها.
ولانه من الاغذية عالية الالياف مقليلة السعرات، فضلا عن انه غني بالاملاح والفيتامينات، ويندرج ضمن الاغدية الخالية من الكوليسترول، يقع على رأس قائمة الغداء الصحي الذي يصلح للاستخدام ضمن أنضمة الحمية وأنظمة إنقاص الوزن، وكذالك الانظمة الغذائية لمرضى السكري ومرضى القلب وتصلب الشرايين ومرضى الكبد، باعتباره مصدرا جيدا للبروتين، علاوة على ان احتواء البروتين الموجود به على الاحماض الامينية ميشبعة السلسلة بقدر جيد يجعله غداء جيدا للمرضى المعرضين الى حالات الغيبوبة الكبدية، كما ان قلة محتواه من البوتاسيوم يجعله غذاء جيدا امرضى ارتفاع ضغط الدم.
ونظرا لارتفاع محتواه من الفيتامينات، خاصة مجموعة فيتامينات "ب" وفيتامين "أ" وفيتامين "س"، يعتبر من اهم الاغذية التي ترفع مناعة الجسم وتزيد كفاءته في مقاومة الامراض، كما ان وجود هذه المواد المضادة للاكسدة به يجعل له دورا كبيرا في مقاومة الشقوق الحرة التي تكون سببا مباشرا في الاصابة بالاورام السرطانية خاصة سرطان القولون.
وبما انه ينتمي الى صنف الاغذية التي يندرج ضمنها الفول والحمص، يحتوي العدس على مواد تسبب إنتاج الغازات، كما تحتوي على بعض المواد التي تؤثر على امتصاص وتمثيل بعض العناصر الغذائية الهامة مثل الكالسيوم والحديد. ولتقليل ظاهرة إنتاج الغازات وكذالك تقليل تأثير هذه المواد يفضل أن يتم نقع البقوليات عموما في الماء لفترة يمكن أن تصل الى 12 ساعة قبل طهيها والتخلص من ماء النقع بعد الغليان، وإن كان يعيب على هذه الطريقة أن بعض فيتامينات "ب" التي تذوب في الماء تفقد كذالك، وبالتالي تقل القيمة الغذائية لها.

الفشار أو الذرة


الفشار أو الذرة كما يصطلح عليه بالمغربية، أكلة محببة لدى الصغار والكبار، غير ان البعض يتجنبها خوفا من الاصابة  السمنة بسبب احتوائها على الدهنيات، كما ان أكل هذه المادة مرتبط بقضاء بعض الاوقات المسلية بين أفراض العائلة، أو مشاهدة الافلام بالبيت او السينما، غير ان بعض خبراء التغذية ينصحون بأكله لاحتوائه على عناصر غذائية عديدة ومفيدة لجسم الانسان.

يحتوي على كميات كبيرة من الالياف والاحماض الامينية، كما أثبتت الدراسات أن فوائده تكمن في المواد المضادة للاكسدة الموجودة بالذرة، وهذه المضادات تحمي من أمراض القلب والسرطان.

واكدت الدراسات ان" قشرة الدرة الجافة والتي تتحول بعد قليها الى فشار، هي الجزء الذي يحتوي علي أكتر المنافع الغدائية، وليس الجزء الابيض الرقيق" وتضيف ان " حصة واحدة من الفشار تحتوي على ما يقارب 300 مليغرام من مضادات الاكسدة، اي ما يقارب ضعف ما تحتوي عليه الكمية نفسها من الفاكهة والخضروات.

كما ان فوائده تعتمد على طريقة تحضيره، لان الفشار الذي يستهلك بدور السينما يحتوي على سعرات حرارية ودهون أكثر، واضافة الزبدة او الجبن السائل يقلل من قيمته الغذائية، أي أن كمية صغيرة من هذه المادة مع الاضافات تحتوي على 600 سعرة حرارية.
اما الفشار الذي لا يضاف اليه أي شئ، يحتوي على 100 سعرة حرارية فقط والفشار الذي يعد بالفرن الكهربائي "الميكروند" يحتوي على ضعف الكمية من السعرات الحرارية التي تصل الى 200 سعرة، بهذا يكون الفشار وجبة خفيفة متكاملة وصحية.
