Diets

Don't bother spending money on the latest diet book, pill, whatever. There is no quick fix to losing weight-you know that and I know that! We all want quick fix, but losing weight takes work! Just eat right, and exercise! Make sure that you are eating a well-balanced diet. You should never have to forgo eating something, because a real diet is all you can eat...in moderation. Here is one of the best free free free sites to help with that. MyPyramid.gov

Saving on Sleep

Do you have problems falling asleep? Well don't go buying a new bed or a pill right away. Try some basic things to help you fall asleep that are for free!
  • Get away from TV, computer, PDA, what have you at least an hour before you head to bed. Your brain and eyes will thank you for it.

  • Try not to eat or drink foods specifically with caffeine or sugar at least 2 hours before bed.

  • Try not to eat or drink much of anything an hour before bed, your stomach will be churning for quite some time.

  • Don't schedule your day up to the last 10 minutes before bed, give yourself time outside of the covers to unwind.

  • Leave work, at work.
Once you are in bed:
  • The more you think about trying to fall asleep, the longer it will take for you to fall asleep.

  • Use simple relaxation tools to relax your body and face. Concentrate on your breathing, relaxing the face muscles, letting your limbs go loose...

  • Get in a comfortable position, and stay there!
