The other major component of my plan was exercise. I started with walking, and gradually transitioned to a slow jog, religiously 3 days a week. I ate an apple on the way to the base gym, heading over right after work on Mondays and Wednesdays. Then I went to the gym on Saturday mornings. You’d be surprised how many people are “creatures of habit”. By going to the same gym on consistent days, I started to get to know some of the faces, so it was a support system of sorts. 0 361 s All vegetables are rich sources of vitamins, iron and minerals that help your body function with absolute normality. They provide your body with good nutrition, that makes your skin radiant and healthy. If eating raw or cooked vegetables has got a bit of monotonous, replacing them with vegetable juices is also a great idea. Vegetables juices are easy to carry to office and easy to make as well. The same taste of cooked vegetables can make lunch and dinner seem boring. By having a glass of vegetable juice, you can easily treat your taste buds to preparations other than veggies.
Three bean salad is a great choice when you are attempting to lose weight. You can quickly make the low calorie version at home. Take three different types of canned beans, add a low fast Italian dressing and combine well. A can each for type of bean is enough to have the salad ready for you the entire week. 361 s Controlling weight is an important part of managing insulin dependent diabetes, also known as Type I diabetes. The problem is that although weight loss is a common symptom of undiagnosed insulin dependent diabetes, once you start treatment, weight gain often occurs. Getting your weight down will give you better control over your blood sugar levels. The good news is that your diet doesn’t have to be restrictive or leave you feeling deprived. It simply involves making a commitment to eating healthy for the long haul.
I have a 1 1/2 yr old shepherd and she is very wary of strangers. once the person gets in my house she is ok but she gives them a real hard time initially, barking a lot, pulling towards them with all her might (and she’s hard to hold back). she’s very intimidating but is a sweetheart once you get to know her. How do I get my GSD to accept visitors w/out scaring them off?The key to most behavior problems is approaching things using the dog’s natural instincts. Dogs see all the people and dogs in the household as a pack with each having their own rank in the pack and a top dog. Life is much easier if the 2 legged pack members outrank the 4 legged ones. You can learn to play the role of top dog by reading some books or going to a good obedience class. A good obedience class or book is about you being top dog, not about rewarding standard commands with a treat. If she sees you as the leader, enthusiastically greeting visitors, distracting yourself from feeling stress will help. She will interpret stress over her behavior as stress over the visitor. Giving strangers treats to give her may not work as well with her as with more food motivated dogs. You need to work on this. It will only get worse as she reaches maturity at 3 years old. Try walking her in public places where she can encounter strangers that aren’t invading her den. 361 s Another cause of sudden weight loss can be a crash or fad diet and excessive exercise regimens. If you’ve recently changed your lifestyle, weight loss can be just as sudden. Setting small goals and gradually working toward a new lifestyle will cause less stress on your body. Making drastic and sudden changes is not good and consulting a physician before starting any new diet and exercise routine is recommended.
