Party-Proof Your Diet These easy swaps will battle bulge from now till New Year's.

Family dinner

Whatever the cause—Grandma's "It's only once a year" refrain or gorging to avoid being quizzed by a nosy aunt—our hips tend to grow in proportion to the size of any family gathering. They won't if you choose wisely.

Eat This: Not That:

Mushroom gravy

Cranberry sauce

Per ½ cup: 55 cal, 2 g fat (0 g sat), 6 g carbs, 471 mg sodium, 1 g fiber, 2 g protein

Per ½ cup: 209 cal, 0 fat, 54 g carbs, 40 mg sodium, 1 g fiber, 0 g protein

Cranberry sauce would be a health food—if it weren't loaded with more than four tablespoons of sugar per half cup.

Eat This: Not That:

Sliced ham

Turkey drumstick

Per 3 oz: 139 cal, 7 g fat (2 g sat), 3 g carbs, 1,109 mg sodium, 1 g fiber, 14 g protein

Per drumstick: 416 cal, 13 g fat (4 g sat), 0 g carbs, 196 mg sodium, 0 g fiber, 70 g protein

Say hello to the other white meat (would you believe it has only 70 calories per slice?) and goodbye to that Neanderthal-esque turkey leg.


i say save up for the bad so when your broke you can go to Taco Bell!!! lol

America's Healthiest and Unhealthiest States

America's health is failing. And no one likely knows that better than those in Louisiana.

It lands at the bottom of a list measuring the health of the nation's 50 states. Joining it at the bottom are Mississippi, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas.

Vermont was crowned the healthiest state for the second consecutive year. Hawaii, New Hampshire, Minnesota and Utah round out the top five, according to a study published Dec. 3.


Come on America get with the program....

Majority of States Now in Recession


In March, 5 States Were in Recession; Now There are 27 With 14 More at Risk



What started out as a housing problem in a few states has now exploded into a full-fledged recession with a majority of states now in or dangerously close to recession.

Just this weekend, President Bush's top economic advisor used the much-avoided word "recession" to describe the economies in some states.

"We are seeing what I think anyone would characterize as a recession in certain parts of the country," Edward P. Lazear, chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, said on CNN's "Late Edition."

Back in March, Mark Zandi, chief economist and co-founder of Moody's Economy.com, said that only five states were in recession: Arizona, California, Florida, Michigan and Nevada.

Now, he said that 27 states are in recession and another 14 are near recession.

"There's no way around the map. It says the nation is in recession. The recession is coast to coast," Zandi said. "Just a handful of states are expanding at this point. One of the unique features of this downturn is how broad-based it is, regionally."

What happened between March and today?

Orlando Predators Football Team To Be Sold

ORLANDO, Fla. - WESH 2 News has learned that the Orlando Predators, the city's arena football league team, will be sold on Tuesday

"The majority owner called me this morning and said he was selling the team and would hopefully have an announcement on that very soon," Centroplex executive director Allen Johnson said.

Season ticket sales dropped from 14,000 to 12,000 for the team last year.

The news isn’t good for the league, either, because experts said that its facing financial troubles as well.

The New Orleans franchise folded in October and sources told the Denver Post that if the league doesn't find financing by Dec. 19, it could be forced to dissolve.

"I think the problem may be larger than just the Orlando Predators. The AFL is going through some changes financially," Johnson said.

**O this poses a very sad day in my life...My Daddy has held season tickets since 1996 when the Orlando Predators originated...I have a newspaper of my brother & I at the game when I was like 11 years old!!!

Def...will be doing this tonight!!!


Today's Leo Horoscope:
Dec 08, 2008

When's the last time you used a pen and paper, dear Leo? In this day and age of computers, the keyboard has all but replaced these wonderful tools. In the same way that walking provides much more than fresh air, the kinesthetic value of the rhythmic motion that occurs in writing with a pen is far more soothing and even healing than most realize. Moving your hand across the page can feel good and unlock places within you that aren't always accessed by typing. Try some of this today.

Could they be any better????

Michelle Obama says she wants the White House to feel full of energy.

And while hanging new drapes isn't high on the Obamas' list of priorities as they prepare to move into the White House, design experts wonder if the first family will use the nation's most famous house as a way to back a serious agenda: going green.

If this doesn't slap me in the face...What Will?

Today's Leo Horoscope:
Dec 03, 2008

Make sure that you are living your life consciously at this time, dear Leo. It could be that you are going through a great deal of denial and you simply refuse to see the truth of the situation. Open your eyes up to the world around you so that you may invite joy and compassion into your life. Don't let yourself be satisfied with superficial interactions that don't really fill you up.

Woo...Hoo....

Don't Get Me Wrong...

I love the Summer...the Hott weather! Fo Sure & by far my most favorite!!! I love the beach, the pool & the lack of clothes!!! On the other I have NEVER liked the cold before. I hate it! Every part of it! Except maybe that Christmas falls in the season of the cold. But today I figured it out!!! I don't like the cold mostly because here in Florida it is an every other day thing!!! Or an every other week...or whatever Mother Nature decides for this state. I can't tell you how sick I am of having to watch the news to decide if my sleeves are going to be long or not!!! Can't mother nature just decide that Nov, Dec, Jan, Feb are going to always be in the low 60's?? That way I know what to wear w/out watching the news.!!!

I take things from JA...bc she is my inspiration...

"A friend is someone who lets you have total freedom to be yourself."

New HAIR

So I finally did it...I cut all the dead yucky stuff off! & I think it couldn't look any more FABULOUS!!!! SOOO...much body & health!!! The one thing that made me happiest this weekend...Cutting my hair because my boyfriend is a JERK!!

Today's Leo Horoscope: Dec 01, 2008

Take action on creating a fanciful dream world today, dear Leo. Indeed, much of the activities of the day will be touched with an air of otherworldliness. Although you generally like to keep your feet on the ground, realize that once in a while it is essential to let go and experience other realms of thought in order to gain new perspectives on things. Let your hair down, and go wild tonight.



...going wild tonight will consist of Prison Break, Gossip Girl & One Tree Hill...woo hoo! such a daredevil...!!!!

"I may still not know what I want to be when I grow up, but I do know that someday I want to live in a house filled with my books and travel souvenirs. And the walls that aren’t covered in bookshelves will be covered with photos of my family and friends. When I leave the house I will be going to a job I love, and I’ll return to a person I love. So, that’s the dream I’m working on."- Amber Morley (via frannyandzoey)
