Posted in America's Next Top Blogger, Lifestyle, Wellness by America's Next Top Blogger | No Comments »

By Ms. J

I guess I don’t have to tell too many of you how devastating it is to hear that diagnosis. Cancer is at an all time high and tearing families apart. It appears that much emphasis is placed on breast cancer but there are so many other types of cancer taking peoples’ lives as well. Since cancer is not prejudice as to who it will attack, we must all make every attempt to eat healthier, exercise, avoid stress and laugh as often as possible. Do not hesitate to make doctor appointments because you fear what the diagnosis may be. Better to find out sooner than later.

Healthy You! – “Biggest Loser” to Biggest Winner!

Posted in Dieting by Dianna Ranere | 1 Comment »

Every week I tune in to the television show The Biggest Loser. I have watched it in all its incarnations since it’s debut in 2005. The show chronicles families, couples, husband, wives, and just average every day people trying to lose weight. I guess what really captured my attention is how brave, or day I say “ballsy” these people are to go onto national television and agree to don bicycle shorts and an exercise bra, well the women anyway. I have to admire them for that alone!

By Vladlena Nyzhnik

I am getting older and I have the same problem as many women all around the world. I have gained so much weight! I need to lose at least 20 lbs to be in a normal shape.

First of all, I do not believe in the drugs. I am sure that all drugs have side effects. I used some diets. But it is well known that we can use the diet only for a period of time.

Healthy You! – Emergency Information About Aging Parents

Posted in Wellness by Dianna Ranere | No Comments »

This may be a somber article, but the truth is, everyone should know this information. I have lost both of my parents, my Dad 12 years ago and my Mom only 2 years, 1 month ago. My Mom had Congestive Heart Failure, coupled with Diabetes. I watched her go from a vibrant, spunky spitfire to a shell of a woma deeply depressed. She lived with me, so I had to have all of the information that the Doctors needed to try and save her life. Sadly, my sister and I had to take my Mom off of life support in the end, sending her to be with her one true love, my Dad.

No one is ever prepared for illness, but I hope you follow these tips. I suggest a notebook to compile the following information:

1. Doctors name - This is extremely important to have so you can provide a history of your parent’s health. Continue reading ‘Healthy You! – Emergency Information About Aging Parents’

Irritable? What the @%&# Do You Mean, I’m Irritable?

Posted in America's Next Top Blogger, Wellness by America's Next Top Blogger | No Comments »

By Allison Davidson

Okay, let’s just go ahead and say it….. I’m menopausal. Having a hysterectomy last year has forced “the change” upon me long before I was ready for the experience. Am I grateful that my doctor was able to perform this operation and end my agonizing physical pain? Absolutely. What I wasn’t prepared for, however, was the emotional drain that would follow. I’ve come to grips (literally) with the infamous menopausal mid-section…the already jiggly tummy now flapping about irreverently, mocking my every move. The occasional hot flashes are offset by chillness that has me reaching for a sweater when the thermostat reads 76 degrees. Lotions and potions help keep my crinkly skin somewhat softer and smoother. But why the heck am I so grouchy?!?!?
