I was watching part of the Doctors and Dr Oz yesterday. I was not paying much attention but then on Dr. Oz he started to talk about the dangers of belly fat. There was this young lady who had the fat in the wrong places. She got a...

Yes you heard right. This idea by the New Jersey Game, Fish and Wildlife is not exactly a new one, as it was proposed as long ago as 2007. The whole idea is to change the status of feral and stray cats into "exotic" and dangerous...

Trace86 I think that is ridiculous! If I were a "cat hunter", I would feel so bad if I shot someone's sweet Fluffy! And if it were my sweet Fluffy, I would be beside myself! I think they should stick with the catch, fix and release plan. Although, my Maya was a stray...

Heather Echola I think this is one more stupid and cruel thing being proposed by government. It will appeal to those who already hate cats or are afraid of them. As you pointed out, just the implication of the loss of control in the rodent population is frightening. My cats...

Giving up your comfort foods can be extremely difficult, like giving up smoking, drinking, and your best friend. There are times when it’s all you can think about and no matter what else you eat, you still crave it. This is what...

EvrWonder If it was a matter of health, I could give up whatever was necessary. The hardest to give up, for me would be dark chocolate. I don't eat much bread, if at all. Instead of spending time focusing on how much I missed the carbs etc, I would indulge in...

recycledgoth Fresh fruit and vegetables are definitely a good start. We have swapped to eating more pasta rather than potatoes, although a baked jacket potato is good. I try to steer clear of processed foods and canned goods if possible, going to lean meat like chicken...

catdla1 Going healthy isn't necessarily giving up the foods you love. In the case of potatoes, rice and pasta...it's not the item itself that isn't healthy...it's what is put on it. If you get away from butter and heavy sauces, you can enjoy healthier forms of the...
