Three Revealing Things You Can Tell Just by Looking at Someone

#1.) You Can Tell Whether a Woman Is Interested in You or Not by Watching Her Feet. Women are really good at disguising their intentions. But apparently they’re not as conscious about how they move their feet.

–According to a study done at theUniversityofManchester, if she’s NOT into you, she’ll cross her legs or keep them tucked under her body. But if she’s IS into you, she’s more likely to sit with her feet slightly apart.

#2.) You Can Tell Whether Someone’s Liberal or Conservative by Watching Their Eyes. Researchers have found that during a conversation, liberals are more likely to follow the other person’s “eye cues” than conservatives are.

–For example, if you’re out at dinner with someone and your eyes dart over to look at something going on at another table, a liberal is more likely to notice you looking and ALSO look.

–Someone who’s conservative is more likely to keep looking straight at you, even if your eyes dart around the room.

#3.) You Can Tell How Well Someone Handles Alcohol by Their Eye Color. A study of thousands of Caucasian men four that guys with light eyes . . . like blue, green, or hazel . . . can handle booze better than guys with dark eyes.

The Seychelles Is Expensive! New Deets On William & Kate’s Honeymoon!

new deets on royal honeymoon

Earlier this month, we got confirmation that William and Kate’s honeymoon destination was the Seychelles!

Hopefully they’re have an INCREDIBLE time together, because their romantic post-wedding vacay is costing a reported $720,000!

Yikes! It’s gonna take quite a few weeks months years of mall-food-court Chinese food dates to make up for such a pricey honeymoon! LOLz.

In return for 720k, here’s what they’ve been treated to while on their romantic island trip:

- 11 private villas (each with 2 bedrooms & 5,000 sq feet!)
- Private butler
- Open-air bath, full of frangipani flowers
- Golf carts and mountain bikes for island exploration

Here’s what a source had to say about the expensive honeymoon:

“They have been looking forward to this trip as much as they were their wedding. [This is] the first time in months they can relax together, away from everything and anyone.”

Sounds wonderful! Could they pay for several kids’ college educations with all that money? Sure! But at least they’re having a honeymoon to remember…we guess…

What do U think about William and Kate’s $720,000 honeymoon? Too extravagant? Or is it worth the $$$?

Foods That Fight Cellulite

Cellulite is for sure one of my enemies…grr!! Sometimes I think man will it ever go away or how can I prevent it so lists like the one below with tips is GREAT lol!

Fight Cellulite

By Stephanie Clarke, R.D., and Willow Jarosh, R.D.

Diets won’t help you conquer dimples in the long run, but a smarter day-in, day-out way of eating will. Put these slim-down tips to work for you today.

EAT MEALS AND SNACKS ON A SCHEDULE
“Sticking to a regular daily pattern trains your brain when to expect food and when not to, so you’re less likely to nosh between meals,” says Susan B. Roberts, Ph.D., a professor of nutrition at Tufts University and co-author of The “I” Diet. “It’s those unplanned snacks that tend to trip you up because they’re often high-calorie or high-sugar foods,” she says.

NIX WHITE FLOUR FOODS
At least two studies have found that people who eat the most whole grains have less belly fat than those who eat fewer complex carbs (you can have cellulite around your middle too). With the variety of whole-grain products on store shelves today, it’s easier than ever to snub the refined stuff. The higher fiber content in whole-wheat bread and pasta keeps you feeling full longer, so you won’t have to contend with a rumbling belly.

MAKE FRIENDS WITH FAT
It may sound counterintuitive, but trust us: To lose fat, you have to get over your fat phobia. Healthy fats, like nuts, seeds, avocado, and olive oil, can actually help you lose weight (and cellulite). They provide flavor, texture, and a feeling of satisfaction, all things you need if you want to stick to a healthy eating plan. “Just use them as condiments, not the main attraction,” says Delia Hammock, R.D., a nutritional consultant in New York City. Spread a tablespoon of mashed avocado onto a sandwich for lunch or toss a teaspoon of sunflower seeds with veggies at dinner.

“CHEAT” THE RIGHT WAY
The concept of a cheat day is a weight-loss staple, but it’s also the Achilles’ heel of many eating plans. A day of eating whatever you want can add up to thousands (yes, thousands) of extra calories. It can also make it harder to get back on track the next day, when your brain has a chocolate cake hangover. Instead of splurging for an entire day, Lisa Young, Ph.D., R.D., the author of The Portion Teller Plan, recommends limiting yourself to just one cheat meal each week. “Plan it, enjoy it, and as long as it happens just once a week you won’t break the calorie bank.”

FOCUS EACH MEAL ON ONE BOLD, HOT FLAVOR
Loading your plate with too many tastes or aromas may trigger the production of hunger inducing hormones that can make you overeat without realizing it. Instead, keep the flavor simple but make it stand out: Go for spices like crushed red pepper, paprika, and chili powder, all of which contain capsaicin, a compound that may increase satiety and help you eat less, according to recent research published in the International Journal of Obesity. Not into your food packing heat? Try flavorful spices, like cumin, turmeric, or coriander.

GO VEGGIE ONE DAY A WEEK
A recent study in the International Journal of Obesity found that people who ate the most meat were about 27 percent more likely to be obese and 33 percent more likely to have abdominal obesity (dangerous fat that accumulates around the organs in your midsection and increases your risk of heart disease) than people who ate the least amount of meat. They also consumed about 700 more calories per day, on average.

FLEX YOUR WILLPOWER
Practice makes perfect with healthy eating too. Try this “resistance exercise” from Judith S. Beck, Ph.D., the author of The Beck Diet Solution. “Every time you refrain from eating something you hadn’t planned, you strengthen your ‘resistance muscle,’ making it more likely that the next time you’re tempted, you’ll resist the urge,” says Beck.

EAT AN APPETIZER
Studies show that if you take the edge off hunger before lunch and dinner, you’ll eat less. Choose from one of our 100-calorie appetizers, then eat your main meal in the following order: veggies first (which should take up about half your plate), then the protein, then the whole-grain carbohydrates. “Having veggies first satisfies your stomach and your brain,” explains Young. “Fiber-packed veggies are filling, and your eyes see a big portion, so your brain thinks you’re eating more too. By the time you get to the carbs—the danger zone for many people—you’ll be ready to stop.”

Your daily horoscope

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY:

Your work-life balance could do with some adjustment and over the next 12 months you will get a number of opportunities to devote more time to your family and friends. Don’t waste them. It’s not all about material success.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

You really can’t stand people who enjoy making a drama out of a crisis. The best way to deal with someone who gets emotional for no good reason today is to stay calm yourself and let them know how stupid they look.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

The sun is coming to the end of its transit through your sign, so if there is something you still need to do but for one reason or another have not yet got round to get on with it now. The clock is ticking, so hurry up!

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

You should now be looking ahead and thinking of ways you can turn the tables on those who have given you such a hard time in recent weeks. It doesn’t have to be nasty though. Living well is the best revenge.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

You will take the opposing viewpoint to what everyone else believes today, and you may not be too popular for it. No doubt you will be asked to explain yourself, so have your reasons ready. Don’t let others intimidate you.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

Cosmic activity on and around the midheaven angle of your chart is piling on the pressure, but you are tough enough to take it and assertive enough to give back as good as you get. No one gets the best of Leo.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

A friend will say something about you today that is less than flattering. Before you go off in a huff try to find out why they are making a big thing of such a minor failing. Could it be because of something you said?

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

This may be a frustrating time for you but looking ahead the sun’s move into your fellow Air sign of Gemini at the weekend will put the smile back on your face. Cheer up – you’ve got so much to look forward to.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

You may be tempted to let a rival off the hook but is that wise? If they get the impression that you are easily manipulated they may try to cheat you again. Act tough today, even if you don’t really mean it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

What happens today will convince you that it’s time to give up on something that clearly isn’t doing you much good. Don’t be depressed about it. You have in fact learned some valuable lessons, and they’ll come in useful very soon.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

Can you trust what others tell you? No you cannot. It may sound negative but over the next 24 hours your default position should be that everyone is lying to you. You can’t be too careful where your reputation is concerned.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

You will have to put a creative project on hold today, but you can come back to it later. The simple fact is you have too many things on the go at the moment. Focus on your most important aims first.

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):

You may not be in the most outgoing of moods at the moment, but that’s okay. Go some place quiet where you can relax and replenish your energy. The next few days are going to be busy, so pace yourself.
