Bunny Vreeland’s Weight Reduction Hints
Dr. Bunny Vreeland says, first thing - Slow down and pay attention.
Eating your food more slowly not only helps you savor it, but also helps you to eat
less. At the University of Rhode Island, researchers invited 30 women to have dinner
in their laboratory where they were served a tasty pasta dish. The ladies were told
to eat quickly, and they finished, on average, in nine minutes. In a second test,
the same women were served the same dish but told to slow down and chew each mouthful 15 to 20 times. They were told to stop eating when they felt full. It took them about a half-hour to finish the meal. The results? When the women ate slowly, they consumed 67 fewer calories than when they wolfed down their food.
What does that mean? If you were to eliminate 67 calories at dinner every night--and
made no other changes to your lifestyle--you would lose seven pounds in a year.
Meanwhile, Brian Wansink, director of the Cornell University Food and Brand Lab in
Ithaca, N.Y., insists it is external factors that make us eat too much. He said that the average person makes about 200 food decisions every day, but puts real thought into only about 10 percent of them.
Bunny Vreeland says there are seven factors that encourage mindless eating:
* Distractions while we eat, such as watching TV.
* Location of the food on the table.
* Size of the plate or container.
* You'll eat more if you like what you're drinking.
* Not paying attention to the extras, such as bread.
* Too much variety.
* Dining with friends.
Seven tricks to break the mindless eating trap:
* Try to be the last person to start eating.
* Decide how much to eat before sitting down.
* Use smaller dishes so portions look larger.
* Don't eat in front of the TV or in the car.
* Eat chips or sweets only on the days you exercise.
* Cover half your plate with vegetables or salad.
* Leave serving bowls in the kitchen and not on the table.

Warts
By: michaelrussell | 06/01/2010Most of us have had one of these ghastly bumps at one point or another. Warts are caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV).

Common warts are the rough-looking lesions most often found on the hands and fingers. The much smaller, smoother flat wart can also be found on the hand but may show up on the face, too.
