I just love answering these diet tips questions. Here’s another:
Question: Like most girls i’d love to have a nice toned, curvy body ready for summer! I don’t have a bad figure atm, it’s just i would appreciate it if you guys could help give me some dieting and excersizing tips to help get that figure and maintain it? I’m 17 years old if that helps! (sounds silly but i’ve seen similar quesitons to this on yahoo answers and some people ask for age?)
thank you!
Answer: well eat lots of fruits and veg with grilled meats or quorn, cut out junk food, its simple really, however if your not trying to lose weight but just tone you dont need to change your diet.
try jogging and swimming (if you can swim) jogging will tone your legs and stomach, believe it or not and swimming will work out the whole body!
you could also do light weights, and sit ups for your arms and stomach.
What’s this week’s diet tips question? Let’s dive straight in…

also guess my weight.
125 kilos, thats like 275 lbs? right. whoa. i think i look bigger then i think i do! =( oh no!
Answer: When you are losing weight, you should exercise and diet together.
If you exercise without dieting, you will get bigger appetite, which
will lead to increase of weight, or muscle grow
underneath the fat layer, and make you bulkier. If you diet without
exercising, you will become flabby and will have excess skin. For
diet, go wheat free. No pasta, pizza, bread and so on. And no food
after 7 p.m. People achieve marvellous results with it. Depending on
your initial weight, you can drop upwards from 20 pounds a month. If
you don’t eat wheat then you don’t eat all those sticky, fatty goey
cakes, you don’t eat junk food, and you don’t eat biscuits. But your
diet is still balanced. It costs nothing, and you do not have to
calculate points or to buy special meals or plans. For exercising,
start with walking, and then switch to running/jogging. Running is the
most efficient and calorie-burn exercise ever. If you are overweight a
lot, walk first or you may have health complications (heart attack,
disjointed bones and so on). Weight lifting is a good means to target
your problem areas for men and women. It’s not necessarily to become a
bodybuilder or even join a gym - a couple of dumbbells will help you
to target your problem areas (stomach, butt, legs, arms, chest).
Well here’s a question I just had to answering straight away:
Question: I currently feed my dog Canadea All Stages…I heard that RAW Feeding is better? Better than what I feed her you think? If so, can you prescribe a good RAW diet for her please? I have joined some yahoo raw feeding groups but all the groups seem to cater to big dogs. By the way, I brush her teeth daily with CANINE toothpaste. I heard if I fed raw that would not be a problem…also can someone tell me how much it costs to feed a raw diet so I know how much to expect to spend monthly? thank you.
ALSO: if I feed her raw and she licks me..will i have to wash my hand now every time i handle her? and how do I get the dog to stay in one spot rather than drag her raw food everywhere?
My Dog is doing really well on Candea. She has nice coat, more active and no doggy smell. But I want to switch her to Raw because i heard that it will be even better for her?
Answer: I’m not a believer in raw feeding, and it certainly isn’t any better than what you are now using. If you truly think you’d rather feed raw, please do it right, go back to the yahoogroup rawfeeding list to make sure you understand the nutritional needs of your dog. My vet has had bad experiences with dogs fed raw, so she doesn’t recommend it, but you should discuss this with your own vet before jumping into this method. It isn’t easy doing it right
Check out this site for a wonderful pamphlet written by a gal that has done a great deal of research and work with feeding dogs all different ways;

Her latest book Optimal Nutrition is in use at the Ohio school of veterinary medicine. Pretty good credentials I think.
