weight loss

I can easily tell you what the best weight loss pill is.

It is taking advantage of a membership to your local gym. It is eating right, and taking care of your body, and exercising on a regular basis, and letting your body lose weight naturally.

It is protecting your heart and your digestive tract and every other part of your body by avoiding drugs, both illegal and legal, if you do not absolutely need them.

THAT is weight loss.

hemorhoids

I don't have hemorrhoids. But I know hemorroids are, and I am sure that people who have them are always searching for hemorrhoid relief! They are in a region of the body that is socially uncomfortable and (potentially) physically uncomfortable. I have a lot of respect for anyone who deals with a problem like that- or really with any problem of that end of the gastro intestinal system!

diets

I don't understand why people talk so much about diets and diet supplement reviews. A diet implies a short-term eating plan. If you want to lose weight, for good, you shouldn't go on a diet but you should make a permanent lifestyle change. For good. Diets are okay if you just want to drop a few pounds in the short term- say, for a wedding- but for the long term, you change your life.

acne scars

I have an odd perspective on acne scars. I think that acne scar removal products are largely overrated. I mean, I am sure there are some people who benefit from them, but for the majority of people, acne scars fade with time. Besides, scars are a conversation piece. But then again, I am less concerned about my appearance than many of the people around me.

valentine's

Well, Valentine's day is coming, and I can't help but wonder how many men are out there searching for the perfect gift for their lady. Society makes it seem like it is hard to buy gifts for her. I disagree. Flowers die. Chocolate tastes delicious but once it is eaten, it's gone. Diamonds are forever. Diamonds are a girl's best friend. Buy diamonds.

careers

Careers are hard to choose. It's funny, I remember when I was a child, everyone would ask "what do you want to be when you grow up?" And now that I'm grown up, in a way, I still haven't answered that question. I know what I've done, and I have a general idea of what I still want to do- but life is such a twisty-turny road, and who knows what it will bring?

pro sports

I don't get sports people. At least professional sports players. They are always doing weird and crazy things to be stronger and try to find testosterone boosters that work. Steroids and other drugs and junk. I've even heard some bodybuilders will inject nasty substances directly into their muscles. Disgusting. The only way to be strong (or stronger) is to exercise and eat right- lots of protein and all that. And if that's not "good" enough for your pro team, then that team isn't worth it.

diet pills

I think that if diet pill side effects were listed on the bottles, a lot more people would be smart about it and not use diet pills. You can't have your cake and eat it too- at least not without heart issues, kidney and liver issues, stomach issues, and intestinal issues. Not to mention any nervous system issues you may get on top of all that. Plus it would severely damage or destroy your social life!

zits

Does anyone know of a good zit remedy? You would think that by the time you hit the 20s, you would not have to worry about zits anymore. And you would be wrong. I am lucky, in that I do not have a huge huge problem- I break out when my hormones go wild, but not too bad. And it is better than when I was a teenager. But still- when does it end?!?!

universities

I've thought about going back to school. Sometimes I think it would be easy to go to an online school. I can only get online degrees but it's better than nothing, right? Plus it might be just plain easier to go to school online. I mean, it's just easier to study at home, from the comfort of my own office, and without needing to clean off my car or leave home or anything.

exercise

I really need to head back to the gym. What a world- my life has been so insane for the past month or so. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a fat burner pill that just zapped the fat? But alas there is not! I have to work my way to being healthy and losing weight and all that. No "free lunch"!

shopping makes me happy

I've been in a funk lately. I totally need to find a way to snap out of it. Shopping for electronics usually puts me in a good mood- unfortunately I don't have enough money to do that every time I am out of it, but wouldn't that be fantastic? I am really good at finding good prices, and I really enjoy spending time finding sales and clearances and so forth. And it's so rewarding when I actually buy it!
