    Breakfast: - Healthy cereal mixed with fruit - A glass of milk Lunch: - Veggies and dip - Fruit salad Dinner: - Meat with cooked vegetables and I drink water through-out the day. Is there anything I should add to my diet? I also switch it up and have crackers and cheese with my lunch or have toast for breakfast. And sometimes have yogurt as a snack. Ive been eating like this for 2 weeks now and I just want to be clear that it's infact healthy. Oh, and to add sometimes I have salad :)
  • "It's like they have pms 24/7"...what does this expression mean?

    Women's Health - 15 hours ago

    Additional Details

    I looked up 'pms' and it has something to do with females monthly I guess, but I don't really understand what this expression means: "It's like they have pms 24/7" Someone used this to describe a co-worker of mine... Does this mean...they have bloating problems or something....?

    I've been trying to log in all morning and the site won't load, I'm just trying to figure out if it's a problem with my computer or the website and if it does this often? I've only been using it for a week but was considering getting a full paid membership (because I like it more than all the other sites I've tried) but if this is a common problem then I'll go back to fitday :( Thank you for checking Stumblin... I do have a Spark membership and find the website too extensive and easy to lose myself in. They simply have too much going on and I find it all hard to ignore so I can get in and out quickly, lol.

  • Clear Care Solution questions?

    Optical - 1 day ago

    Additional Details

    I am currently using clear care as my contact lense solution. Today is my first day of using this. Well, after the 6 hours of soaking in clear care, what's left is neutralized saline as I understand it.Can we use whatever is left on the disc to rinse, or is that unsanitary? I was advised that whatever is left I can use that to rinse, but after soaking in clear care, is that solution still clean after the 6 hours? Also, once after the 6 hours, I am not always going to be home to use it. So let's say I go on vacation for a few day and I leave it in the disc, will that be safe? Thank you.

  • Will my foot smell bad?

    First Aid - 1 day ago

    Additional Details

    I've had a below the knee cast for about a month, and was nervous about having it removed. I posted a question on Yahoo Answers, and the responses helped settle my nerves. Someone mentioned the smell would be like a sweat sock, and now I'm nervous about that. I've heard that there can be an unpleasant odour. But is it really that bad? Won't giving my leg a good scrub with Hot water and soap take care of the bad smell? I have a wedding to go to, and it will be bad enough if I have to show up on crutches, now I have to worry about the smell too. Please help.
  • Exercises for a 13 Year Old Boy?

    Diet & Fitness - 1 day ago

    Additional Details

    I read on the Internet that doing Sit ups, crunches, jumping jacks everyday will show an improvement. I followed these, but I feel they haven't done anything. I know cardio is very good. So is aerobics and water aerobics. But, do any of you have real effective exercises a 13 year old boy can do? I don't wanna use weights because that will stunt my growth. I also know I should be outside, but I am shy to run, exercise outside by myself (also its freezing outside) Im trying to lose weight before July ! Any suggestions?
