Guest guest Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 Here's a portable meal planner: http://www.skwigg.com/id80.html For the best fat loss results, choose a BFL-authorized lean protein and a fruit or a whole grain. For example: chicken / grapes turkey slices / apple cottage cheese / berries string cheese / dried apricots lean ham / pear tuna pouch / wheat crackers hard boiled eggs / orange There are a lot of rather iffy things included in the lists. For example, using fig newtons, granola bars, or graham crackers as a carb, using peanut butter or yogurt in place of a protein portion. That's not the best idea for fat loss and blatant rule-breaks if you're doing BFL by the book. When you pack your cooler, try to stick to palm and fist portions of authorized foods. But if you're low on willpower and just trying to get through the day, any of the listed options are better than hitting the vending machine. Also, remember that vegetables are unlimited. So be sure to pack things like baby carrots, celery, broccoli, and bell pepper strips to have with your meals. You can make a high-protein dip out of blended cottage cheese and ranch seasoning. If time is tight, buy the veggies chopped and pre-washed and grab a bottle or individual containers of dressing. I despise lowfat dressing and would rather have a small portion of the real thing, but if you're doing a whole lot of dipping throughout the day, go with something light or lowfat or the calories will add up fast. > > Hi all, > > I'm new here; just saying hi.

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Hi, I got rid of my low grade sinus infections by drinking a teaspoon vinegar (applecider) and two teaspoons local raw honey in eight ounces of water three times a day and at night I drink a straight shot of the apple cider vinegar (one tablespoon) Hello! If you have a chance to go to a classical homeopathic doctor, you might get very good help. The consultation would be expensive, and they are a bit difficult to find in this country, but thereafter probably there would be little cost for meds etc., and homeopathy is usually very effective. The 'remedy' chosen would depend on a lot more than your symptoms.... though they are included... [homeopathy uses 'like cures like' --- eg in acute not chronic situation, if symptoms are as if from while cutting an onion, than usually a TINY amount of the onion remedy relieves (less than an atom is in the 'remedy') ] and NO side effects!! and sometimes immediate relief.... sometimes... and if you needed to carry 'your' inexpensive remedy with you, can be in tiny pellets or even a cream... Sometimes acupuncture can also help, especially with a highly trained practitioner. and many thanks for your service as a soldier!
