I have to say that I have always loved what cosmetics and skincare has done for me, but some time difficult to find the right products for my skin.
Your posting very useful for me.

Thanks

Comment on Biggest Loser Protein Powder by Hayley

So the biggest loser chocolate and vanilla bean shakes should not be used as a meal replacement? I am investigating meal shake replacement for weight loss. I may get some boos for it as I know there is nothing better than eating healthy. But in m household and around my family, this is hard. Does anyone have any suggestions on a GOOD meal shake replacement that isnt full of bad stuff?

Boy do I agree with the above comments and the premise of this article! I am a man who lived for 12 years with a mis-diagnosis of bipolar disorder and nearly lost my life as a result. Please look at my story on my website http://www.liveyourpassion.org/about-scott/

I want to blog/chat with others who may be concerned about this serious risk and form of subtle maltreatment.

Thank you for looking at my personal story.

Comment on Sensa Weight Loss Product: Solution for Draconian Self-Deprivation and Hedonic Sacrifice? by Lynn

I have been struggling with weight for years. I’ve been on every diet and used every support there is…Weight Watchers, Jenny…etc. I finally had lap band surgery five years ago. The idea is similar to Sensa…feel full faster. Well, if you don’t treat the underlying cause of the weight, anyone can outeat, outsmart any diet plan or aide out there. I thought the band was the answer…until I realized I can drink with my meals and flush the food right through the band. I have to work harder to eat my lunch and dinner, but I still eat as much as I did before. Total weight loss to-date? 35 lbs. In five years. Not impressive. Sensa won’t do much better because you haven’t found the root cause to your eating. THAT’s something that every overweight person could benefit from. My weight is going down now due to behavioral counseling and finding my root cause.

I remember milk coming out of my nose in 3rd grade & digging for my retainer in the garbage after lunch in 4th… I also remember the fun & caring teachers that nurtured us.

I remember skipping that social studies class with you to find our prom dresses! I also remember going to your house to eat during lunch because we probably didn’t want to eat another unhealthy meal in the lunch room. I remember the most, being involved in a sport!

Ha! I remember getting the wind knocked out of me after falling off the monkey bars in 2nd grade. But, I never gave up on those bars. It happened to me again in 4th grade I also remember going on nature walks in science class. Now kids can’t even step outside the classroom without permission slips. That’s LAME.

Comment on ECT or Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? by Nadia Behr

Nadia Behr — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 01:07:22 +0000

I always like to have all the facts before arriving at a decision. ECT is not barbaric or inhumane if performed correctly.

However I recently read a book that sheds light on the investigation of court records medical research and FDA archives demonstrating that the doctors who promote and profit from ECT are not always acting in the best interest of their patient(s)

There is enough medical documentation confirming the long term effects from this treatment; they are not good!

If anyone is considering this treatment or wants to learn why ECT is the cause of serious long term brain damage read the book that recently came out. Initially a patient may have the procedure and return to a normal way of living. The media is now uncovering the brain’s deterioration years later from ECT.

totally agree with you and elaine. The movie hits so many topics that are so real right now. But do you think people are even seeing it? Further that it might influence their beliefs or actions?
