Seven habits of a highly successful diet

1. Be a good example. Watch what you yourself reach for instinctively, like, when you're stressed.
2. Eat in more often. Cooking your own meals means you can control the oil and fat content.
3. Go outside more. Run together. Shoot a few hoops. Or, just take walks around the estate.
4. Think wholesome. Stock up on, say, wholemeal crackers instead of creamed crackers for snacks. Or fruit juice instead of sugared water.
5. Curb junk food. Limit the number of times you dine out at fast food joints or order in these "convenience" meals.
6. Limit high-sugar foods. Don't ban things like chips and candy altogether - or she'll feel deprived. But limit them as "once-in-awhile" foods.
7. Reward right. Don't offer high-energy foods, like candy bars, as reward. Give fruit instead.

What to do if you're alone when you have a heart attack.

Read this...It could save your life!! Let's say it's 6.15 p.m. andyou're driving home (alone of course), after an unusually hard day onthe job.You're really tired, upset and frustrated. Suddenly you startexperiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to radiate out into your arm and up into your jaw. You are only about five km's from the hospital nearest your home. Unfortunately you don't know if youll be able to make it that far. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy that taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself.

HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds withoutlet-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeezethe heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure onthe heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital. Tell as manyother people as possible about this. It could save their lives!!

Funny Business

A man is opening a restaurant and he asks one of his workers to come up with a name for it.
The man tells Al, one of his workers, that he will name the resaurant after the first thing Al sees when he goes out the door.

Al walks outside and the first thing he saw was a girl named Lucy and he saw her legs. He told the man, and so the restaurant was named Lucy's Legs. The man was so impressed that he said the next day Al could get a free drink.

The next day Al comes a bit early and a policeman walks by and notices Al waiting there. The policeman asks, "What are you doing?"

Al says, "I'm waiting for Lucy's legs to open so I can get a drink."
