Weekend Roundup – Homework Edition

ahh homework.  I never thought I’d encounter it again but here I am, working on accounting, finance and management homework.  Oh well, I’m learning a lot and school (even with homework) is a blast.

And on that note, here are some articles I thought you might find useful:

A few days ago I talked about some crazy diet that involved hormone shots from human placenta.  Well, that’s not the only crazy idea going on out there.  Here’s an article from Mark’s Daily Apple about some other crazy diet ideas.  Remember, there are no quick solutions.  The best way to be healthy is to live healthy.  That means eating healthy food in moderation and being physically active.

And on the same note, here’s an article from ABC News about some other crazy diet and fitness ideas.  Enjoy the read and don’t be too embarassed if you’ve ever fallen for some of these, so have I.

Now let’s change the subject to something a bit more useful.  Stephanie over at Back In Skinny Jeans wrote this great post about changing your mindset.  Stop thinking about what you CAN’T do and start thinking about what you CAN do.  It’s a small change but one that makes a big difference.

The following article if just one in a series from Almost Fit.  It’s a photograph of food that the blog’s owner has recently eaten.  I like this series because the food is healthy and it shows how wonderful healthy food can be.  Stop thinking about healthy food as lettuce and granola and head on over to Almost Fit to see some of what they’ve been cooking.

And while we’re looking at healthy food that tastes great, how about this post from Webecoist?  It’s another series of photos, this time of 20 vegan meals that taste great.  Yes, vegan does not have to mean bland. Why not try making a few of these at home?
