Boy friend problem........???


ALERT: Why Some Guys Never Grow Up
Hey ladies! Is your guy a boy masquerading in a man's body? Does he throw temper tantrums like he lost his favorite blankey? Here are 3 reasons why!1. He had an overbearing mom. "When guys are too coddled by their mothers as boys, they become whiny brats as they grow older," said The Average Guy. "And no woman wants to be with them because they still want mommy to take care of everything for them. Those are the guys they say have mommy issues."2. He doesn't want to forget his college days. For your guy, college was a blast � beer with the boys, throwing his stuff all over the floor and never really having to clean up after himself. Unfortunately, now he wants to keep the frat party going in his relationship with you. 3. He's in no rush. In his mind, he's got a while to go before he actually HAS to grow up, so why start now? Also, men today can have "friends with benefits" relationships well into their 40s and 50s because the definition of what constitutes a relationship has changed. � Tasha CunninghamArticle from:

9 Ways to Have a Happier Love Life Today


1. Stop complaining. I know it's hard, but you don't really have to complain about every little thing to you? Complaining keeps you miserable because you've got to relive whatever is bothering you every single time you talk about it.


2. Buy flowers. Roses, tulips and sunflowers are all beautiful. Adding flowers to your surroundings, whether it's your apartment or your cubicle, will pick your mood up almost immediately.


3. Eat chocolate. If you're on a diet, take a break from not eating to enjoy a little chocolate. Research shows that the ingredients in chocolate are known mood-boosters.


4. Smile at a stranger. Instead of greeting people you pass on the street with your usual scowl, try a smile. And if you smile at a hot guy, you never know what's going to happen.


5. Donate to a charity of your choice. Even if it's just $5, donating money to a worthwhile cause is guaranteed to boost your happiness quotient.


6. Help a colleague that you can't stand. You know the girl at work who gets on your nerves. Instead of giving her stink eye, help her out. Ask her if there's anything you can do to help her, listen to her horrible jokes and laughs or wait around while you tells you the horrible story of her most recent break up.


7. Stop trashing your ex. So you dated a ***. You're not the only one who has. After you've warned other women about your ex on DDHG, stop talking about him. You'll instantly feel better after a few days of keeping your ex out of your mouth.


8. Volunteer. If you can't donate money to charity, you can certainly donate your time. Volunteering is also a great way to meet guys!


9. Befriend someone you know but have never spoken to before. You know your co-worker that no one else seems to like? The one who's a bit dorky? Be his or her friend. Ask them to share a lunch with you. You'll feel better about yourself by making an outcast feel like he or she belongs. -- Denise Pendleton

Eggs: Are they good or bad cholesterol?


Eggs are high in cholesterol, and a diet high in cholesterol can contribute to elevated blood cholesterol levels. However, the extent to which dietary cholesterol raises blood cholesterol levels isn't clear. Many scientists believe that saturated fats and trans fats have a greater impact than does dietary cholesterol in raising blood cholesterol.
Adding to the confusion, the American Heart Association recently acknowledged that as long as you limit dietary cholesterol from other sources, it may be possible to include a daily egg in a healthy diet—a statement that was heavily reported in the media.
Here are the facts: One large egg has about 213 milligrams (mg) of cholesterol—all of which is found in the yolk. If you are healthy, it's recommended that you limit your dietary cholesterol intake to less than 300 mg a day. If you have cardiovascular disease, diabetes or high LDL (or "bad") cholesterol, you should limit your dietary cholesterol intake to less than 200 mg a day. Therefore, if you eat an egg on a given day, it's important to limit or avoid other sources of cholesterol for the rest of that day.
If you like eggs but don't want the extra cholesterol, use egg whites. Egg whites contain no cholesterol. You may also use cholesterol-free egg substitutes, which are made with egg whites. If you want to reduce cholesterol in a recipe that calls for eggs, use two egg whites or 1/4 cup cholesterol-free egg substitute in place of one whole egg.

Anti wrinkles -------- Tomatoes


Tomatoes in your food can help protect against wrinkles, cancer...............

London, Apr 29 (ANI): When it comes to fighting sunburn, those pesky wrinkles and skin cancer, nothing does the trick as well as adding a little more tomato to your diet.
The finding is based on a research by boffins at the universities of Manchester and Newcastle, who found that adding just five tablespoons of tomato paste to the daily diet can improve the skin's ability to protect against harmful UV rays.
Damage from UV rays can not only lead to premature ageing, but also skin cancer.
The researchers suggested that the protective effect was due to the antioxidant lycopene that is found at its highest concentration when the fruit has been cooked.
Lycopene has already been linked to a reduction in the risk of prostate cancer.
As a part of the study, 10 volunteers were given around 55g of standard tomato paste and 10g of olive oil daily for a period of three months.
A control group of 10 participants received just the olive oil.
The researchers found that volunteers who were given tomato had 33 percent more protection against sunburn, and higher levels of a molecule called procollagen that gives the skin its structure and keeps its firm.
"The tomato diet boosted the level of procollagen in the skin significantly. These increasing levels suggest potential reversal of the skin ageing process," The BBC quoted Professor Lesley Rhodes, a dermatologist at the University of Manchester, as saying.
"These weren't huge amounts of tomato we were feeding the group. It was the sort of quantity you would easily manage if you were eating a lot of tomato-based meals." (ANI)
