Greek Yogurt |
Greek yogurt has almost twice as much protein as other yogurts. It takes longer to leave your stomach, keeping you satisfied longer. Plus, you burn more calories digesting protein than carbs. Choose nonfat, low-fat, and low-sugar types. |

Quinoa |
Quinoa (pronounced keen-wa) is a nutritional all-star that belongs in your weight loss plan. This whole grain has 8 grams of hunger-busting protein and 5 grams of fiber in one cup, and you'll also get iron, zinc, selenium, and vitamin E. Quinoa is as easy |

Hot peppers have a flavorless chemical called capsaicin. It's more plentiful in habaneros, but jalapeños also have it. Capsaicin seems to curb appetite and speed up metabolism slightly, but only for a short time. It probably doesn't have a big impact on w |

Grapefruit doesn't have any magical fat-burning properties, but it can help you feel full with fewer calories. That's because its soluble fiber takes longer to digest. Having half a grapefruit or a glass of grapefruit juice before a meal fills you up, so |

1. Evaluate Your Eating Habits |
Be realistic about your eating habits. Are you a late-night snacker? Do you taste your food while cooking? Do you finish the kid's leftovers? Being aware of these behaviors and stopping them can save a lot of extra calories you probably won't miss. |

2. If You Fail to Plan, Plan to Fail |
Have a strategy for what you will eat, and when. Plan your meals and snacks. Eat something nutritious and filling before a party where there will be junk food, or stash healthy snacks at work to avoid temptation. |

Eat regularly to help yourself feel full, to prevent drops in blood sugar, or binge snacking. Some people need the old-fashioned three square meals per day; others do better with six smaller meals. Figure out what works best for you. |

Doughnuts |
Can't resist fresh doughnuts? If you give in too often, they can bulk up your belly. Better Bet: Stop at one. A glazed doughnut has 260 calories. The whole box packs 3,120 calories. A 200-pound man would have to run about 25 miles to work that off. |

Keep Your Feet Up |
When you can, sit with your feet resting off the floor to raise your legs. You'll make it easier for the blood in your veins to flow up toward your heart. This can lessen the swelling and discomfort in the leg with DVT. |

Problem: One-Food Wonder |
Your child may happily eat some foods and toss others on the floor. Is it just a phase, and how long will it last? What do you do in the meantime: Give them what they want, or hold your ground? |

Solution: Don't Fight It |
Don't turn mealtime into a battle of wills. Keep offering a variety of good-for-you foods, even if your kid rejects it at first. Many kids take their sweet time before deciding they like a new food after all, so keep trying. Offer fruit, vegetables, and e |

Solution: Limit Liquid Calories |
For children ages 1 to 6, keep juice to 4 to 6 ounces a day. That's 1/2 to 3/4 of a cup. Avoid juice with added sugars. Water it down gradually until your child is drinking plain water. Or try serving milk or juice for meals and water the rest of the day. |

Head Injuries and Your Brain |
Although the brain is protected by tough bone (skull) and padding (membranes), it can still be injured. Head injuries that are severe enough to affect brain function are termed traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). Damage can range from mild to severe as the b |

A concussion is considered a milder form of a traumatic brain injury (closed brain injury) by most clinicians. In most people, recovery from a mild concussion is quick. However, if the person suffers a severe concussion, the person may be unconscious for |

What is a Concussion? |
The slide illustrates how a blow to one side of the head throws your brain back toward the opposite side thus potentially causing damage to both sides of the brain. This leads to a concussion or closed brain injury that can cause mild or serious symptoms. |

Skull Fractures |
Although the skull is like a helmet that protects the brain tissues, it can be cracked, dented, and penetrated with enough force. Sharp bone fragments of the skull can then press into the brain. This can result in brain tissue damage or brain tissue death |

Bleeding in the Brain |
Bleeding inside the brain is a medical emergency. The blood, under pressure, has no place to drain so it often pools and forms a hematoma. The hematoma can put pressure on the surrounding tissue and squeeze off the blood supply to parts of the brain. Sign |

No. 14: The Teen Body Clock |
When a child becomes a teen, their sleep cycle changes. They become more alert in the evening and sleepier in the morning. Work with those changes. Let your teen do homework at night and sleep later if she can. Teens still need at least 8.5 hours of sleep |

No. 15: No Pacifier or Teddy Bear |

No. 16: A Room That Says, "Stay Up!" |
To create the right space for sleep, keep your child's room dark at night. (A small nightlight is OK.) Dress your child in something lightweight and comfy. Keep the room quiet. Shut the door if your child can hear a TV or people elsewhere in your home. |

No. 17: Ignoring Tired Cues |
Is your child nodding off at school? Does she have trouble falling asleep within 30 minutes of going to bed, or getting up in time to start her day? Check that she's getting enough sleep. Kids ages 5 to 10 years need at least 10 hours of sleep a night. |

Don't Stretch Before Exercise |
Flexibility helps you move better. Try to stretch daily or at least three times a week. But don't do it when your muscles are cold. Do a light warm-up first, like walking for 10 minutes, to loosen up the joints, ligaments, and tendons around them. |

Go Low-Impact |
What exercise is good? The best choices are activities that don't pound your joints, like walking, bicycling, swimming, and strength training. |

Flex Some Muscle |
Get stronger to give your joints better support. Even a little more strength makes a difference. A physical therapist or certified trainer can show you what moves to do and how to do them. If you have joint problems, avoid quick, repetitive movements. |

Work on Your Range |
Are your joints too stiff and inflexible? You'll want to get back as much as you can of your "range of motion." That's the normal amount joints can move in certain directions. Your doctor or physical therapist can recommend exercises to improve this. |

Power Up Your Core |
Stronger abs and back muscles help your balance, so you're less likely to fall or get injured. Add core (abdominal, back, and hip) strengthening exercises to your routine. Pilates and yoga are great workouts to try. |

Know Your Limits |
It's normal to have some aching muscles after you exercise. But if you hurt for more than 48 hours, you may have overstressed your joints. Don't push so hard next time. Working through the pain may lead to an injury or damage. |

If you have joint pain from rheumatoid arthritis, eat more fish. Fatty cold-water types like salmon and mackerel are good sources of omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3s may help keep joints healthy, as well as lower inflammation, a cause of joint pain and tende |

Keep Your Bones Strong |
Calcium and vitamin D can help you do that. Dairy products are the best sources of calcium, but other options are green, leafy vegetables like broccoli and kale. If you don't get enough calcium from food, ask your doctor about supplements. |

Target Your Posture |
Stand and sit up straight to protect joints all the way from the neck down to your knees. To improve your posture, take a walk. The faster you do it, the harder your muscles work to keep you upright. Swimming can also help. |

Consider your joints when lifting and carrying. Carry bags on your arms instead of with your hands to let your bigger muscles and joints support the weight. |
