Healthy High-Protein Snacks

We found this great list at Greatist.com! Eat protein with every meal, and throughout the day! Protein fills you up, and helps create mood-boosting serotonin in your body! Here’s just a few of the some of the great snacks they listed, read more here! Stay curvy with Curvy Diet supplements and butt-plumping cream!

1) Pumpkin Seeds: Those orange gourds aren’t just for Halloween. The pumpkin insides, scooped out to make room for spooky faces, can actually make a healthy little snack once they’re washed, dried, and nicely roasted! Just ½ cup of pumpkin seeds has about 14 grams of protein — the perfect pre-workout snack that helps burn fat!

2) Deli Rollup: Top 2 slices of low-sodium deli meat (turkey, chicken, or roast beef work great!) with 1 slice of lowfat cheese and a shake of pepper. Add a slice of tomato or some lettuce for extra veggie points!

3) Hard-Boiled Egg: Inexpensive and loaded with nutrients, eggs are one of the best ways to get a healthy dose of protein. Try hard boiling and pre-peeling a dozen at the start of the week and throw one in a small Tupperware container each day for an easy on-the-go snack. (Feeling extra famished? Slice the egg and place it on a piece of whole-wheat bread.)

 

Get More Flexible For Sex With This Stretch!

More Flexible Better Sex

Grrrllll….we were searching for a stretch that would help us, um, open our legs wider and we found this gem on Health.com’s “The Better Sex Workout.”

Lie facedown on the floor with two rolled-up towels supporting your pelvis and thighs and your arms reaching out in front of you. Bend arms and legs at 90-degree angles, into a position that resembles a frog. Hold for 3 minutes, then release.

Once we did each side, we went ahead and tried to pull up both of our legs at 90-degree angles as the same time…AHHH!!!! FEEL THE BURN!! We’ll get there — we feel more “loose” down there already, ha ha.

Are You Addicted to Sugar? 14 Mind-Blowing Facts

Sugar Addict

If you tend to overeat, have food cravings you can’t control, need more and more food in order to boost your mood, are an emotional eater, feel sluggish after eating, or have work/social problems due to your relationship with food (i.e are overweight/irritable), you may be addicted to sugar.

We found this interesting graphic with facts about sugar over at MindGreenBody. Two of the greatest books we’ve ever read, which lay out a diet plan to actually deal with sugar addiction (even allowing you to eat fast food in the beginning as long as you’re getting protein with each meal), are “Potatoes Not Prozac” (most recent and recommended) and “The Sugar Addict’s Total Recovery Program” by Kathleen DesMaisons. They are worth the read, and you won’t believe the difference you feel once you’ve kicked your sugar addiction. Everyday press is finally backing up DesMaison’s reference to research that shows that sugar affects the same part of the brain as heroin.

Top Sexting Tips!

sexting-pics-525x3501

 

How to Sext

Ladies, please abide by The Golden Rule of Sexting: Don’t send anything to anyone who you don’t trust fully and completely, and don’t send anything to them that they haven’t already sent to you (i.e. photos etc)!

That being said, here are some sexting guidelines we gleaned from Canadian Living:

1) Take things slow! Ease into things, just like sex! Be suggestive at first, not explicit. Always take your time before pressing “send” so you don’t accidentally sext the wrong person!

2) Say things like, “I want to…” — don’t say “we never…” or “you never…”

3) Stroke the ego! This gets men hot like nothing else.

4) Even if you trust your partner wholeheartedly, it still might be best to leave your face out of photos. It’ll leave something to the imagination! If you’re worried about being recognized by an incidental third party, cover any tattoos with a temporary tattoo, or add one where you don’t have one.

5) Don’t send sexts to someone who doesn’t want them! That’s the biggest turn-off, and surest way to get yourself in trouble.

6) Once you’ve enjoyed your sexts, delete them — unless you don’t mind your children or a phone thief seeing them!

Have You Ever Tried Samba?

Samba originated in Brazil, and is know for its sexy, hip-shaking moves.  It was — and still is — a festival dance celebrated during the street festivals and celebrations, such as Carnival!  First introduced in the U.S. in a Broadway play called “Street Carnival” in the late 1920s, the adventurous style and peppy mood of samba has kept it alive and popular to this day.

So turn up your favorite South American music and feel the energy as you shake your booty!  Visit the Samba Body YouTubeChannel for some great videos to get started!
