Where do I begin, I am your typical teenager with unique qualities, thoughts, and dreams. I like to draw, I write poems, and I’m pretty healthy…I hope.
However, I cant seem to figure out why it’s so hard for me to get out of bed in the morning or why I suddenly get tired and don’t want to do anything, now it’s not laziness because I’m up and about playing with kids, working out, and I’m hyperactive. I could say I just enjoy sleeping, but I believe its a little more complex than that, like I emotionally depend on sleep.
There are only 3 things I find of high importance which are food, sleep, and music. I’m not overweight, I’m very skinny actually. Yes, once upon a time I was depressed, but I got over that or at least I thought. It might not seem like a problem, but it effects me greatly like my memory or getting up for school, I just don’t have the will power anymore. Read the rest of this entry »
I’m only 12 and I have nobody to talk to. My friends don’t understand completely, I can’t tell my parents something like this, and my sister is too busy with her baby and boyfriend.
I feel fat compared to ALL my friends!! They can wear a bikini and look amazing, but I have big love-handles. It’s winter and I’m not very active right now. I’ve tried eating less and now I’m to the point where I’m hurting my body physically. I don’t know what to do and I just want to be thin fast and easy. Please help!

Dear Marie,
Thanks for your question and I’m glad you wrote in. It has never been harder to be a girl in our society I’m afraid. Girls are always being bombarded by the media with images of what beauty should look like and it seems like there is no escape as images are on billboards, TV, magazines, and the internet. My heart really goes out to you and all the 95% of girls who don’t fit into the perfect girl mold. Read the rest of this entry »
The mind, body, and spirit connection is continually being backed up by new research.
A new study out of Australia found that dieters who choose a low fat dieting option end up with a more positive mood. The study compared a low-carb, high fat dieting group with that of a low-fat dieting group. The two groups both ate the same amount of Calories.
At the end of the year long study, both groups lost the same amount of weight, but the low fat group reported better moods. If you’re looking for a dieting option and also suffer with a mood disorder such as depression, then a fat burning dieting option like Strip that Fat might be worth a try.
Strip That Fat Essentials
Strip that Fat wouldn’t be a traditional low fat diet in that it encourages the dieter to eat healthy, essential fats, but in a responsible manner. So instead of turning to processed fat free food in the supermarket, Strip that Fat teaches you how to use healthy fats in your diet eating only real foods. Read the rest of this entry »
Now that winter is over and summer is here, why not get out and do something new?
People tend to get stuck in the same habits and routines even when it comes to exercise. Then we wonder why we we lack the motivation to keep exercising. Read the rest of this entry »
If you’re seeking to break cycles of depression or other debilitating thought patterns nothing is more important than getting out and doing some exercise.
This is often a hard thing to initiate because your mind is screaming at you to stay on the couch or to stay in bed. You may feel drained of energy and think that there is no way you could ever do anything physical. Read the rest of this entry »
