Quote by Mack Newton
Want to be more even-keeled? More dependable? Then stop complaining.
In my opinion, real women and men NEVER complain. Complaining is like
rust. It erodes away your resolve...your resiliency and it undermines
your committment to succeed. How? Well, it's simple really...since
life reflects back to you what you are expending and when you complain
the universe sends negativity and confusion your way. Kinda sad because
it's all unnecessary and totally avoidable. - Mack Newton

Peace to Me Poem
Peace To Me
© Esther Ayisire
Published on April 2015
When I think of peace, I see myself in a world where I can truly be myself,
Who I choose to be, where I can just let go and be comfortable with who I am
A world with no hatred, racism or pain
A world where no one is judged or criticized
A place with equality and value of people's lives
A time of joy and togetherness, where no one is thought as of good or evil
Where Creed or color is not looked at as right or wrong, good or bad
Where no one is offensive, cruel or rude
A place that makes it possible to stay in a good mood
When I think of peace, I see a gentle wave lapping up a beach
The smile shared between a mother and her child
The silence of peace and quiet, the lack of hatred war and riots
One day nations will come together and be as one
Just as the Lord wanted it to be
We are all one people
Put together in one world
When I think of peace, I see a better world...for all of us

7 Small But Powerful Diet Habits That Add Up to Major Weight-Loss Success
These small and easy changes will help you eat healthier.
When it comes to weight loss, it’s the little things that can really add up to make a big difference. Think "diet" and you might assume it requires a radical revamp of your life or misery-inducing restrictions. But when it comes to lasting weight loss, research shows you’re better off making small, consistent changes rather than aiming for a major diet or lifestyle overhaul. The key is that the changes are practical and sustainable so that you can permanently adopt them into your everyday life. In one study, people who made tiny adjustments to their eating habits were able to stick to their new routines—and had more success slimming down compared to those who didn’t incorporate the tips. To help shed pounds, without making any huge changes, follow these 7 easy habits for weight-loss success.—Lisa D’Agrosa, M.S., R.D.

Is Apple Cider Vinegar Good for Weight Loss?
Apple Cider Vinegar: Calories and Nutrition
Apple cider vinegar has very few calories: only 3 per tablespoon. The compound in apple cider vinegar believed to have beneficial effects on health is the acetic acid, which is actually found in all commercial vinegars, including red-wine and balsamic.
Apple Cider Vinegar and BMI
Sipping apple cider vinegar isn't a weight-loss cure-all by any means. However, there is one small study that shows a little bit of promise. When obese adults in Japan were given vinegar to drink—groups drank either no vinegar, 1 tablespoon or 2 tablespoons daily—those who drank vinegar had lower weight, body mass indexes (BMIs) and body fat after 12 weeks compared to people who didn't drink vinegar. The vinegar drinkers also had smaller waists and decreased their triglyceride levels. Before you go guzzling vinegar, remember this was a very small study and it also happened to be conducted by a vinegar producer. Don't Miss: The Best Foods for Weight Loss
Apple Cider Vinegar and Blood Sugar
Whether you have diabetes, prediabetes or are just trying to keep your blood sugar in check, apple cider vinegar may help. Adults at risk for type 2 diabetes had slightly lower fasting blood sugar levels (by about 9 percent), compared to a control group, after drinking 1 tablespoon of vinegar twice a day for 12 weeks, according to a study in the Journal of Functional Foods. This suggests that apple cider vinegar may have a positive impact on blood sugar and insulin levels. Though the people in this study didn't lose weight, it might be worth trying a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar before lunch and dinner to help control blood sugar levels.

Other Health Benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar has also been shown to lower triglycerides, improve cholesterol levels and decrease fat storage in the liver. When rats (with and without diabetes) were fed vinegar for four weeks, they had a reduction in triglycerides and LDL ("bad") cholesterol and an increase in HDL ("good") cholesterol. However, not enough human studies have confirmed these effects, and more research needs to be done.
Apple Cider Vinegar and Teeth
If you do choose to drink apple cider vinegar, dilute it with water to protect your teeth. According to Julie Brann, D.M.D., a dentist in Phoenix, apple cider vinegar has about the same acidity level as sodas. "The problem with acidic foods is that they eat away at your enamel. If you are going to drink apple cider vinegar, dilute it with water and don't let it sit in your mouth for too long," says Brann. Watch: Eat This to Boost Your Metabolism
Bottom Line: Can Apple Cider Vinegar Help You Shed Pounds?
You've heard it before but we'll say it again: there's no magic bullet for weight loss, and apple cider vinegar is no exception. Nothing beats a healthy, balanced diet, minding portions and adding more activity. However, there may be small health benefits associated with apple cider vinegar. So while we wait for the researchers to dig deeper, we'll be enjoying these salads that use apple cider vinegar in the dressing: Apple & Grilled Chicken Salad with Cheddar Toasts and Kale, Carrot & Apple Salad.
