Forget Fast Weight Loss, Slow and Steady is More Realistic

In this day and age, we all seem to want things to happen at once. You double-click and Bang! Done!
This may explain why so many people are tempted by ads that promise incredibly fast weight lost. In fact many of those heavily advertised diets are not even healthy or safe on the long term.

Realistic weight loss plans should always be based on balanced nutrition. The USDA's food pyramid is an excellent guide that can be used to prepare long term, safe and realistic weight loss plans.

Please read full article before commenting.

The emphasis was put on slow and steady (or gradual) weight loss.

Modified Macaroni and Cheese Recipe

The old classic has turned into a healthy casserole. The recipe was modified and is featured under the "Macaroni and Cheese with Tuna and Vegetables"

It is definitely NOT about your traditional Mac & Cheese, like the one we would expect to find in a cafeteria or coffee shop or the one that comes from a box bought at the grocery store.

It has been made to be heart and diabetic friendly as well weight-control-friendly.
