Misty shares her strategies for getting Echo to eat new foods, and when she can’t win that battle, she “sneaks” fruits and vegetables into food Echo will already eat.

Misty doesn’t believe in making separate meals for Echo – she feels like that is putting the 3-year-old in charge and that’s a bad thing, especially at mealtime. Misty believes that catering to Echo in this way will skew Echo’s expectations of how she should be treated later in life.

Later, after the wedding fog clears, we realize that it ain’t gonna happen. Truly, after this video, I’m still not convinced, though she gives some good suggestions, like making sure the fabric and color are current or classic, pick something with a little detail (because, as she said, “nothing says ‘bridesmaid’ like a completely plain dress.’” She makes some cool suggestions, like choosing a dress with a pattern, and suggests different accessories to help the dress make the transition. Now, if they only offered different ways to wear that wedding dress!

In this video, Dr. Neil King demonstrates some important posture-improving chiropractic exercises that can help.

The first exercise has you starting in a tabletop position on all fours.  Lower yourself to the mat, put your arms and legs straight out from the body, and slowly lift the legs and the upper body at the same time.  King shows you the proper way to do this exercise, which is called the “Superman.”  Do five of these per day.  They help you with your strength, your mobility, and your flexibility.

The second exercise has you starting on your back – you press your lower back into the floor and lift the buttocks.  Lift the lower body and hold for fifteen seconds.  This exercise is an abdominal exercise that leads into the best exercise you can do for your abs – the bicycle.  King shows you how to do it properly so that you’re not pulling on your head or neck.

Do the first abdominal exercise 5 times per day, and the bicycle for 15 cycles for each leg.

Doing these exercises will help you maintain a healthy spine, and you’ll look and feel better, too!

Customization is key, but lots of times it is price prohibitive to obtain a totally customized piece.  There are other options, like using stock photography, templates, and more where you can input your own information.  Field warns against using just any image in your printing – most pictures on the web won’t work because they do not have high enough resolution.

Field says that studies say that large images are considered more professional looking in brochures.  For business cards, Field says it’s very important to put pertinent information on your business card, but not to cram too much onto the small rectangle.  Use the back if you have to.

Field says that the business you’re in dictates whether or not you need your photograph on your business card.  He thinks that no matter what, it’s important to make your business card stand out with color.  He also advocates using a heavy card stock is very important.

Simpson explains that you should take an herbal formula before your colon cleanse, to make sure you have the most effective treatment.  The herbs sort of “pave” the way for all the waste to be eliminated from the body.  Simpson gives you many different product names that help with loosening the fecal matter from intestinal walls.

Of course Simpson plugs Cook’s book at the end of the video, and we strongly urge you to really study up on colon cleansing and herbal supplements, and then talk to your doctor or natural healthcare provider, before you embark on what might seem like a very strange practice.  Many health professionals advocate colon cleansing to benefit the body, but you need to make sure you have no outstanding health conditions that could make the practice unsafe or unhealthy for you.

The first thing discussed is serving size.  Portions in the U.S. are pretty large.  When you look at the label, you’ll want to note the serving size.  That information might not always be terribly helpful, unless you’re really good at measuring exactly one ounce of something into your hand.  So, look at how many servings are in the container.  If there are two servings in the container, you know you can eat half of what is in the container and you’ll be getting one serving size.

That’s great for when you’re eating something, but when you’re shopping it is even more important to look at serving size and the amount of servings per container.  You might buy something that you think has good nutritional value, only to find out that the container actually hold twelve servings of something and that each tiny serving is simply “not too bad for you” but to eat enough to satisfy your hunger would be actually very unhealthy.

The next thing discussed is the way the label is broken down.  The most important thing to look at is serving size/amount of servings, but the calorie count is important as well.  It’s also very important to look at the fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol content.  Too much saturated fat and cholesterol is unhealthy for everyone, even little children.  It is important to start good eating habits early.

It’s also important to pay attention to how many grams of carbohydrates are in the food.  This is especially important for diabetics, as the carbohydrate count will inform how the food is processed in the body and how much sugar and insulin are produced.

Sodium is also something to look at.  Many, many foods have simply too much sodium.  The average person is only supposed to have a certain amount of each category on the nutrition label per day.  The average daily percentage is based on a 2000 calorie diet.  No matter how many total calories you plan to consume per day, you’ll want the fat and sodium percentages of the total to be low, and for the vitamin and mineral content to be high.

If you are eating in a restaurant, use your best common sense to stay away from foods that are bad for you.  Stay away from smoked or cured meats – they have more sodium.  Stay away from cream or cheese-based sauces and dressings – they have more fat.  Choose fresh vegetables and fruits, and lean protein like fish or chicken.

As with any weight loss plan, you want to write down your goals first.  In those goals, you should plan to exercise.  Not only cardio, but muscle building as well.  If you increase your muscle tone, you burn calories faster and more efficiently.  Cardio and strength training are key to shaping up the body, especially the belly.

It not only benefits you to lose the extra weight, it benefits your baby too.  The stronger you are, and the healthier you are, the better you feel and the more energy you’ll have.  Not only that, but exercise and the right diet can fight depression, so if you’re prone to post-partum depression losing the weight is truly in your best interest.

So, the right diet, exercise plan, and attitude can do wonders for your health, your baby’s health, and your overall well-being.
