Do you spend the weekend unwinding a little too much, only to find come Monday morning the needle on your weighing scales isn’t quite as favourable as you’d hoped?
According to researchers our eating habits change quite dramatically at weekends, particularly as we reach for more alcoholic beverages and calorie-dense foods. If this is the case for you it can certainly be very easy to gain weight over time.

If you have gained weight and wonder why, you need to rethink what got you to the point you are at. You need to analyze what can trigger you to over eat and to eat when you aren’t even hungry.
Some of the things you need to consider are:
1. Are you a clock eater? I remember as a kid, our family ate by the clock. Breakfast was at 7:30 am, lunch was at noon, and supper was at 5:00 pm. Hungry or not, we had to eat at those times. You need to listen to what your body is telling you and don’t eat if you aren’t hungry.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if chocolate and heart health went hand in hand. However, there is so much information lately about the health benefits of chocolate that it is only natural that people get confused.
It is true, that if people only ate pure cocoa, then there might be heart health benefits. The problem is that most people eat processed chocolate bars containing sugar, corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, dairy cream not to mention other “baddies” contained in some of those tasty fillings. Some of these added ingredients can clog up arteries and create havoc to your waistline.

My sister flew in from California for a month long visit. She had been sick before she came and I told her I was going to get her to gain some weight. She had gotten down to 97 pounds before the doctor got her medicine regulated correctly for her.
She decided to help us with our lawn service. I thought to myself, how am I going to get her to gain weight after she’s been pushing a lawn mower 4/5 hours a day. Using a lawn mower has been helping me lose weight. I tried to talk her out of helping but she wouldn’t hear it.
