Something to Think About
Go... Make a Difference

Let us not become weary in doing
good, for at the proper time we will
reap a harvest if we do not give up.

Exercise TV

By MAD21

If you have ever wished you could find a really good workout video without having to buy them, especially since there are SO many really bad ones out there? Have I got the website for YOU!

Exercise TV has the best workout videos I've ever seen online. Naturally they have videos you can buy, but they have a whole lot of videos you can watch for free. Which really comes in handy when you want to do a quick workout and you are away from your gym or television. These are great if you are on a business trip, on vacation, don't have a gym membership, or you just like to have a wide variety of choices of workouts, and new workouts.

Go. Get off the couch... or away from your computer :o)

Hungry Girl

By MAD21

A great website to check out for good deals,coupons, food advice and information is "Hungry Girl" where they have,"Tips and Tricks for Hungry Chicks."

Some of the topics they cover are, "Diet and Nutrition Headlines." "Fabulous finds and disastrous discoveries revealed...Eat 'em up!" "Dishing out Advice." Etc.

For example, right now they have a news story on some new items that were spotted at the grocery store. They purchased them, tried them out, and then wrote about what what they thought about the product.

Go check it out. Stop being hungry. Or at least get advice on what to eat so you aren't hungry!

Is The Food In That Mystery Container Still Good?

I am one of those people who pays close attention to expiration dates. Especially when it comes to eggs and meat. I'm probably more neurotic about it than I need to be, but I don't like to play guessing games with my family's health. Still Tasty is an awesome website that talks about how long foods last and how to store them. I highly recommend it!

Supplements and Vitamins

By MAD21

It has been recommended that if you are trying to lose weight, and therefore are restricting calories, you should take a multivitamin (they tend to make me sick, so I take Flinstone’s complete-my Dr recommended it.) But be careful to not go overboard with this. Most of our foods contain all the vitamins we need. If you take too much of certain vitamins, it can make you sick or cause other problems.
