Distraction as Weight Loss Trick No. 1: IGF Award Winner Aquaria is my newest distraction (some might call it a time waster, but this is learning, really). Be sure to watch a video demo since the graphics don't do the game justice. The music is relaxing and even for a gaming newbie such as myself, it's not difficult (at least in level 1). I heard about Aquaria via a teensy little mention in

Just heard about this yesterday, but apparently they are discovering that those having gastric bypass or lap band surgery for weight loss are able to discontinue medication for type 2 diabetes immediately after surgery! Here's an article about it written way back in 2007 and another article from WebMD from just this January 2008. Read an excerpt of results of a study published in JAMA (Journal

On the About.com weight loss forum Janis said, "Losing weight isn't about walking around hungry. It's about finding a plan you can follow that keeps you satisfied so you can stay on it for life." That is so well put and absolutely true. Too many people equate weight loss with pain and suffering. It does not have to be like that, and should not be like that, if one wants permanent results. A lot

How can I get back the dieting mindset? was asked in the About.com Weight Loss Forum: Getting clear about what you want is the first step to getting motivated to go out there and get it. Ask yourself, what will having the dieting mindset do for me? Then just wait to see if your mind (your self talk) gives you a reply. Self, what will having the dieting mindset do for me? Wait ...

Check out the Hema Web site and wait a few seconds for the fun to begin. I heard about this via Freddy Nager's blog, Cool Rules Pronto. Nager is "Founder & Fusion Director" (Fusion Director?) of the creative strategy agency Atomic Tango. Does this have anything whatsoever to do with weight loss? No. Still, cool is cool.

If you haven't yet heard the new CD, Skinny Songs I expect you will because it's taking the country by storm. The title song, Skinny Jeans is a hoot about longing for those jeans like an old lover. "I found you at the mall and had to have you... now some thing's come between us," Tunes range from country-ish to rap-ish. Wait till you hear "The Incredible Shrinking Woman." I loved that because

Gadgets, got to love them. The Invisibelt caught my eye. I tend to wear my tops out, rather than tucked in. When I was younger it was all about showing off those curves but now I'm all about comfort. When it comes to belts that can be a problem. This design not only can be adjusted (like you'd adjust a bra strap) to accommodate smaller and smaller (even larger and larger but that's not our topic

I love snacking on pickles. They are great when you just can't stop thinking about eating something sweet because they turn your mouth off to the idea, but really, I just eat them because I like them. Imagine my surprise when searching for weird food ideas I came across Pickle Pops over at the Serious Eats blog. Seriously, these are frozen pickle juice pops! It doesn't get any weirder folks. My

I'm reading "The French Fallacy" by Dr. Will Clower, about the so called "French paradox" or why the French can eat rich sauces, lots of cheese and wine but stay thin and healthy. Frankly, I have no evidence but my guess is they just don't sit and eat whole bags of Doritos or Hershey's Kisses, but rather they simply enjoy good food. My nephew lives in Paris so now I have an eye on the street, so

Wearable Vitamins The concept of wearing clothing infused with vitamins isn't new. V-Up from the Fujibo Company had (has?) a wearable shirt with Vitamin C but since their Web site is "under construction" since 2004 I'm thinking maybe this isn't catching on. An updated report by Nutraceuticals World states they are still hot on the trail so hold onto your seat. Shoot, why don't think just

I found this today at CheckMyTag.com a site written by Ria Sharon. Ria says, "I am the mom of a toddler with severe allergies to peanuts, tree nuts, eggs, and penicillin. I have no medical or scientific training but I manage life-threatening food allergies on a daily basis," as does anyone with food allergies or kids with food allergies.

In our quest to find more and better crazy exercise gadgets Bicycle Forest's Treadmill Bike ($2,500 Canadian) was developed.

Apparently I've been asleep in a closet somewhere because everyone's been talking about the edible menu and I'm only just finding out! Chef Homaru Cantu, chef/nerd-in-disguise at Moto restaurant in Chicago is doing more than thinking out of the box; he's creating the box, as in his "cook at your table" fish plate. Cantu created an ink jet printer that uses organic, edible inks. Now I've tried

Kraft gets slammed with a chocolate recall just in time for the 2007 holiday season. Kraft's Premium White Chocolate the 6 oz sized box, apparently they've found salmonella. Yes, it lurks everywhere. Keeping track of all these recalls isn't easy, so get their email or RSS reports. It's getting so we've got to wonder if anything is safe to eat any more.

Diet and weight loss resource found in Find Articles: Shape magazine's back issues from Dec 2001 to the present. I like reading old magazines to see how our thinking and trends about weight loss change from time-to-time. Usually it's the same thing you've always heard, calories in, calories out, but adding healthy nutrition and purposeful movement (exercise) seems to never go out of style. What

Just when we thought it was safe to toss our moldy leftovers, out comes a study saying food waste (and excessive shopping) contributes to environmental decline. Found at Newsdaily.com British Environment Minister Joan Ruddock suggests Brits do their part and stop wasting food! Leftovers are yummy, says Roddock. (Okay, I made that up). You know some people do not like leftovers! They insist on

The New York Times printed a story in July, 2007, "In Small Packages, Fewer Calories More Profits" that you can portion out the full-sized bag yourself and save money, but who does that? We're a nation of food and beverage guzzlers. With self discipline at an all time low, 100 calorie mini-packs are perfect. More importantly they'll slowly train consumers to eat a more reasonable amount at snack

There are a lot of rules flying around lately about what you should or shouldn't eat and what "they" say is right or wrong. But who exactly are "they?" I've been wondering who is the grand authority so I'd appreciate someone letting me know. When you say you know you should eat X calories, who says? Where did you get the idea you should do anything, let alone eat exactly this number of calories

I love food, so it makes sense I'd also love little miniature models of food, though I'm not sure why. Brings out the "oh it's so cute" in me, I guess. This remarkable demonstration of how to craft Itty Bitty Food takes the cake, especially since it's edible! I only wish I were so talented.
