Some home remedies: Try homemade adstringent rinses and [u'>do not rinse off with water[/u'>: Mix the squeeze of a lemon with a quart of water, or 1 cup apple cider vinegar with 1 quart water and use it as last rinse. Also check your water as it could be leaving shampoo residue which can make hair oily too. Maybe buy a bottle of mineral water to use as last rinse works well too. Use organic aloe vera shampoos, they are fantastic add 1 tablespoon lemon juice to your shampoo Hope it helps!

My daughter (5) is the type of child who screams blue murder if she has the tiniest cut..and woe betide us if she actually sees blood. No idea where she gets this from as we are very practical parents and have never made a big deal of this sort of thing (my son is the total opposite!). She even screamed in terror the other day having an x-ray done! Anyway, she is due to go into hospital soon to have her tonsils and adenoids removed as her tonsils are diseased and she needs them out pronto. How on earth do I do this? I have had some excellent advice from friends saying you just take her in and tell her the doctor is going to fix everything..but I know as soon as she gets into the hospital room she will start to panic. Any advice from anyone who has been through this? Was doing some research the other day for my own tonsils and in adults it is done under general anest. Talk to your doctor about this before you take her in, i think they need to run some exams before that and you can do it in advance. Also they might give her something to calm her down, your daughter might not be the only one - I know mine would scream too!!!! And remember to tell her about all the ice cream she can have after ;) Good luck!

Glot I hope you are ok and will be waiting to hear an update from you. 8 years ago, I was exactly in the same situation and one morning I woke up after a horrible nightmare, called him on the phone and told him firmly that "It is over".. From that moment, God gave me a very strong will to fight and to end that relationship immediately. He lost his mind when he realised that he lost control over me, he coudnt believe that the girl who always heard his bad comments about her and yet stayed was the same girl who said "It is over".. He was exactly like your guy and he was getting worse with time, he told me once "If you think people look at you because you have beautiful face, you are totally mistaken.. they look at you because you are too much fat like a big cow!" Once his mother was complimenting me about how my eyes are wide and big and that I am really pretty and he laughed at her and said that No I am not that pretty and it is not all about beautiful eyes, I need to fix lot of other things"... He was really tough in everything he says even in front of others. He always talked about previous relationships and how good the other ladies were, he never cared how I feel about his comments.. He said lot and lot of horrible things.. I cannot even explain to you how much I am glad that I left because God wanted for me a better person. When I dumped him, I immediately went and registered for driving courses (because he didnt allow me to learn driving when I was with him), after few monthsI found a better job, I moved to a better area in Dubai and got a car. After sometime I met my fiance, we were good friends for few years and the relationship grew up slowly. I love my fiance so much because he is very kind, in 6 years he never said anything that hurts me, he respects me and I know that he will do anything to make me happy. I consider myself now very lucky to meet him and have him in my life and I know that no one on this earth will love me more than him. Move on honey, forget about the wedding and everything else, it is you, your life and future. Dont marry him because you lost your job, etc.. I am sure some good things out there are waiting for you. Big hug to you. xx agree with everything above, and would like to add that once you're married, the natural sequence of things will be children - and they also do not deserved to be brought up under these circumstances. Think carefully and don;t let other people decide what is good for YOUR future - only YOU can do that. Good luck and my heart goes out to you in this difficult but necessary decision time.

Here's what worked for me, oatmeal with pitted prunes. Dice the prunes in small bits and mix it with oatmeal AND do not forget to give your child plenty PLENTY of WATER!!!! That is essencial as no matter how much fiber you ingest, it is the water that makes it "go"!!!

That was one quick finale. Everything seemed rushed. I do think Lauren should win it. Overall I'm not impressed with this season. A little boring. No contrast what so ever. Hmm not too happy about it. I noticed they cut off David Cook right at the end. I CAN'T STAND David Cook!!! Michael Johns sang that same song SO MUCH BETTER!

If you ever have dated or known any narcissistic men, your love and hatred for them probably was geared toward the same attributes. It is easy to fall in love with this type of person because you do not realize what they are until it is too late. Many narcissists greatly lack self-confidence but are able to hide that by being smooth talkers and overly confident. When you are starting a relationship with someone like this, it is easy to be tricked into loving the person they want you to love, not their true self. In many cases, you do not realize he is narcissistic until you already love him. Because many women look for a man who is confident and will give them attention, it is easy to mistake those traits in the narcissistic men who cover them up. They do not realize they are narcissists, so they probably do not even realize they are doing anything wrong in the relationship. You, on the other hand, see the behavior as detrimental to the relationship's health. Your partner is not willing to show his true colors to the person he claims to love, which is hard for any woman. Women usually do not realize they are in a relationship with narcissistic men until it is too late. This is not the women's fault. Because narcissistic people want everyone to love them at all times, they will do everything in their power to come off as a wonderful relationship partner. If they led on that they had this disease, you probably would act differently around them. This in turn would cause a drop in his self-confidence because people would view him differently. They know this would happen, so they will keep their behavior a secret as long as possible. Some people are so good at hiding it that people could mistake their few slip ups as just a fight in the relationship and nothing more. The main reason why so many women are unknowingly attracted to narcissistic men is because the men actually are able to manipulate people into believing what they want them to believe. These people can 'be' anyone you want them to be - or rather, anyone they think you want them to be. Typically they do not care about the feelings of other people, but they will if it will result in attention toward them. These men will do all they can to please you and woo you into the relationship because it will make them look better. Women see this attention as positive for the relationship and end up falling in love. Take this quiz to see if the man you are with is a narcissist: 1. Does he act out in verbally aggressive behaviors, or does he have 'rages', especially if he feels he has been insulted in some way? Does he blame 'you' or accuse you of being the one that is 'acting out' or 'out-of-control'? 2. In the beginning was he just 'too good to be true'? 3. Does he rely on you financially, or does he ask you to help him fund things? 4. Does he often spend outside of his budget? 5. Is everything always about him and is nothing ever about you? Does he seem insensitive to your needs, unappreciative of your input, or non-acknowledging of your accomplishments? Does he not recognize your giving, kindness, and thoughtfulness? Does he seem genuinely not interested in your life? 6. Is he controlling? Do you often feel manipulated? 7. Does he show one side (Dr. Jekyll) to the public (a perfected persona which you know is fake), and another side (Mr. Hyde) to you in private? Does he go out of his way to impress people? 8. Does his ego bruise easily, or is he hyper-vigilant to the slightest insult? Do you have to be careful how you word things or voice grievances? 9. Does he expect special treatment or feel he is 'entitled' to it? 10. Does he talk about himself more than you feel is normal? 11. Does he avoid eye contact with you, or does he withhold *** or affection? Has he been unfaithful? 12. Does he seem to lack empathy or compassion for others, or does he 'fake' it to enhance his 'public persona'? 13. Do you feel emotionally battered and confused? 14. Have you noticed your confidence or self-esteem slipping? 15. Is he histrionic? In other words, in public does he hog the limelight, putting on exaggerated shows and telling fascinating stories of himself in order to be the center of attraction? Is he loud or does he act like he is on stage when engaging in simple conversations with other people? Whether or not this has happened to you, it is still a very painful realization when you come to discover that you meant absolutely nothing to someone you loved very much. The realization that this man never loved you (don't delude yourself) hurts beyond compare. It is hard to understand that a histrionic narcissist loves only himself, and, if anything, considered you more a 'love-rival' than a 'lover'. Truth is, you didn't exist to the narcissist. The man with a narcissistic personality disorder is so totally and completely self-centered to the point of being the only person in his life - ever. You simply were a temporary ego-boost. A narcissist supplier (an enforcer and validator of his self-love). His mirror.

We have made our wills but it states me as 'executor and trustee" in case of property and assets, but only states guardianship in case I am deceased as well (the guardian would be one of our family members back home). Should we change this????? I am not very familiar with the legal lingo. <em>edited by MomOfTwins on 24/05/2011</em>

Leave him. You have to love yourself more than you love him. In years to come this trend only gets worse, not better. He will not change, not for you, not for anyone else. Been there, took me 5 years to learn and I did move on - one day I looked at myself in the mirror and said to myself "that's enough". These kind of men need to constantly "step" on someone, they need to be in control of someone constantly. Please do reevaluate your situation, there are still plenty of good men out there looking for good women like you. love yourself and respect yourself FIRST. Hope this helps you.

Ladies, give yourselves a chance ( I am Culinary trained so I know what I'm saying...)...making bread at home, by hand, is very difficult ( so much so that in Culinary terms, bread recipes are called "formulas"!) but it takes less time than the time it takes to brush your teeth if you have a bread machine - basically the machine does the entire job for you, you just throw in the ingredients and walk away, and who doesn;t like the smell of fresh bread in the morning?? (you can program it to bake overnight...) I'd invite all of you to come over to my house for a sample (once I'm moved in!) - nothing tastes better than warm homemade bread with a slice of cold butter melting on it......and they are absolutely not sconey at all (unless you want to make scones!) Please do give it a chance if you have a bread machine. I am totally bringing mine. From the website I gave you, these are my absolute faves: Rustic Brown Bread http://www.robinhood.ca/Recipe-details.aspx?rid=3307 and Honey Wheat N' Oat bread http://www.robinhood.ca/Recipe-details.aspx?rid=2776 Complete list of recipes here http://www.robinhood.ca/recipe-category.aspx?cid=53 You can do it, ladies! At the very least you know 100% what is IN your bread. Cheers

I have been tested for something, I think it was SQ thing, but must make another appointment to have it checked. I can use Voltaren gel, but don't find it so effective. I just bought Arnica so my DS who is into everything doesn't constantly look like a victime of child abuse so I will steal that, naturally since I bought he has had one bump! Will def try flying excercise. Arnica is miraculous. I used to have one mixed with two other herbs that was fantastic but I bought it in Brazil.

Another exercise I learned to stretch neck muscles, hope it helps: Sit straight up on a stool looking ahead, shoulders relaxed, arms down Look to the left all the way bend your head down slowly looking to the floor and stay that way Count to 15 Look up slowly, then look forward, back to the beggining position Do the same for the other side You will feel a gentle "pulling" on your neck and shoulder muscles (emphasys on "gentle"!!!)and you will actually feel them stretching- no matter what, [u'>do not push it[/u'> to feel "pain".

HATE THESE! I get them a lot too. Try: Lots of salt in a warm tub and soak for a while, do it daily - or go to the beach and soak in the ocean if u can Lie on the floor over a mat (Yoga mat ideal). Bend your knees up to your chest. Open your arms perpendicular to your torso ( like as if you're flying). Twist your hips to the right , landing your legs together, still bent, on the floor, and turn your head to the left. Wait 30 seconds in this position and do it for the other side. Another good one: keep your legs bent up on your chest. Both hands on your knees. Rock your body side to side, but keeping your head straight, ( looking straight ahead). These will relax your back and were taught to me by my Japanese masseuse( how do we spell that) . Give it a try and always remember to do these very slowly, no sudden movements. Another natural remedy I learned and I have no clue if these are available here - they would be found in natural medicine or homeopathic stores - maybe L'Occitane? - it is called Arnica, you can find it in a gel and rub it where it hurts - its miraculous.

A friend of mine taught me a trick that worked with my twins. Instead of filling a plate with food and trying to feed him, do this: 1- let's say you're offering honey glazed baby carrots, steamed broccoli and grilled chicken breast. Cut everything in bite size pieces. No cutlery. 2-Place an empty (plastic) plate in front of him. Stay nearby but not actually in front of him. 3- Every now and then, walk by and place ONE piece on his plate - then walk away. Do not say a word. 4- Repeat :) Let me know what happens :) Worked for me! Good luck

50 mins of fast walking burns the same calories as 20 minutes of jogging ( posted on my FB wall by Dr. Sanjay Gupta)........ Thank you very much ladies!! Because I am not too far from my goal I have to work very hard to drop the extra weight left, that’s why I think in my case, just walking outside will not do much, I have to work hard in gym classes. I do not want to join the gym to go walk on treadmill that’s why I thought joining different classes might help me decide which one is best for me and I can also see whats the ladies’ recommendations. Desert Princess, since you are talking here about belly dancing, Once Upon A Time, I bought 12 classes in advance from a fitness club in media city and never went once - because of embarrassment - I always found an excuse for not going! Maybe it would be a good idea to really join now Belly Dancing classes :) I just thought of sharing this and see if there are ladies here who feel the way I feel, and how you dealt with it.. I hate the fat on my arms, I hate the shape of my legs (specially with all the cellulite after the weight loss), and oh my tummy, very soon after few kilos it is gonna like jelly.. EvaB, I was looking at something close to me so I will google Core Direction and see. The Mrs, Fitness Beat in Tercom, is it ladies only or man too? :S I wanted a place that has a swimming pool as well as I was thinking of swimming classes (I have no idea about swimming!). Cara, well some ladies here sometimes put offensive comments and that's why I left that P.S. I always felt uncomfortable about the classes, so let's see if i will be able to do it now!

Try body butters from The Body Shop - pick your fav essence, they are all amazing! Rub them on after a shower while the skin is still moist, then wrap plastic wrap on your heels, put socks on and sleep with them. Next morning make a paste with sugar and milk and rub on your soles, then weekly do the same thing. Moisturize them with body butter daily after that. You will have baby feet in no time :) <em>edited by MomOfTwins on 22/05/2011</em>

Bring plenty of passport size photographs. Great way to save on these is : 1- Get a small set of regular passport size photographs 2- Scan the photos with at least 300 DPI 3- Save them on a CD or SD 4- Take the CD to Wal Mart ( or Walgreens), in the electronics section, where they have those printing photo machines. 5- Choose "collage" and it will print 4 passport size photos on a regular size photo paper. 6- I printed 30 photos with 4 passport pictures in each of them and I paid less than $25. If I would have done it at a passport photo place it would have cost us $120 for only 16 passport size photos.

Whatever you do, DO NOT BRING POPPY SEEDS! They are illegal - do not even eat one last poppyseed bagel before you leave to the airport, as you could arrive with traces of it in your clothes and GO TO JAIL for it!
