In a study published in &lt;em&gt;The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition,&lt;/em&gt; women on a diet that included red meat lost more weight than those eating equal calories but little beef. "The protein in steak helps you retain muscle mass during weight loss," says study author Manny Noakes, Ph.D. Try to consume local organic beef; it's healthier for you and &lt;a href="http://www.self.com/tips/green?mbid=yshine_self" rel="nofollow"&gt;the environment&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Eat more&lt;/strong&gt; Grill or broil a 4-ounce serving of top round or sirloin; slice thinly to top a salad, or mix with veggies for fajitas.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*Wow!!!! i heart steak...mmmm.....best diet food ever!!!*&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM3c9AiNqII/AAAAAAAAAHg/_sSRgKGL3PA/s1600-h/auracana-egg1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM3c9AiNqII/AAAAAAAAAHg/_sSRgKGL3PA/s320/auracana-egg1.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246092081630128258" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Eggs&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Dig in to eggs, yolks and all: They won't harm your heart, but they &lt;em&gt;can&lt;/em&gt; help you trim inches. Women on a low-calorie diet who ate an egg with toast and jelly each morning lost twice as many pounds as those who had a bagel breakfast with the same number of calories but no eggs, a study from Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge reports. "Egg protein is filling, so you eat less later in the day," says David Grotto, R.D., author of &lt;em&gt;101 Foods That Could Save Your Life&lt;/em&gt; (Bantam).&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Eat more&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.self.com/health/recipes/2004/09/230307?mbid=yshine_self" rel="nofollow"&gt;Omelets&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.self.com/health/recipes/2007/06/0605veggie_eggs?mbid=yshine_self" rel="nofollow"&gt;scrambles&lt;/a&gt; are obvious choices, but if you can't cook before work, bake a frittata on Sunday; chill it and nuke slices for up to a week. An easy recipe: &lt;a href="http://www.self.com/health/recipes/2008/07/0721vegetablefrittata?mbid=yshine_self" rel="nofollow"&gt;Vegetable Frittata&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*Self-explanatory....but once a day should be fine...... *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM3eHWG_srI/AAAAAAAAAHo/OMIMyVyL3Gk/s1600-h/Kale.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM3eHWG_srI/AAAAAAAAAHo/OMIMyVyL3Gk/s320/Kale.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246093358731866802" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;h4 style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kale"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kale&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Long sidelined as a lowly garnish, this green belongs center stage on your plate. One raw chopped cup contains 34 calories and about 1.3 grams of fiber, as well as a hearty helping of iron and calcium. But kale's earthy flavor might take some getting used to. &lt;a href="http://www.self.com/health/recipes/2005/04/232429?mbid=yshine_self" rel="nofollow"&gt;Spinach&lt;/a&gt;, another nutrient powerhouse, is a milder-tasting option.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Eat more&lt;/strong&gt; Mix chopped raw kale into cooked black beans, says Jennifer Iserloh, founder of Skinny Chef Culinary Ventures, in New York City. Or slice kale into thin strips, sauté it with vegetable broth and top with orange slices. Make it a meal by tossing the mix with &lt;a href="http://www.self.com/health/articles/2008/07/0721superfoods?currentPage=4#quinoa&amp;amp;mbid=yshine_self" rel="nofollow"&gt;quinoa&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*looks like cabbage to me.....still nice ;) *&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM3fAAogeRI/AAAAAAAAAHw/1fvFI1hcAtA/s1600-h/Goji+Berries.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM3fAAogeRI/AAAAAAAAAHw/1fvFI1hcAtA/s320/Goji+Berries.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246094332219390226" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goji_berries"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Goji berries aka Wolfberries&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p&gt;These chewy, tart berries have a hunger-curbing edge over other fruit: 18 amino acids, which make them a surprising source of protein, Krieger says. (They also have more beta-carotene than &lt;a href="http://www.self.com/health/recipes/2004/09/230245?mbid=yshine_self" rel="nofollow"&gt;carrots&lt;/a&gt;.) Snack on them midafternoon to stay satisfied until dinner. The calorie cost? Only 35 per tablespoon.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Eat more&lt;/strong&gt; Mix 1/4 cup of the dried berries (from health food stores) with 1/4 cup raisins and 1/4 cup walnuts for a nourishing trail mix. Or for dessert, pour 1/4 cup boiling water into a bowl with 2 tbsp dried berries; let sit 10 minutes. Drain, then spoon over 1/2 cup lowfat vanilla frozen yogurt.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*ask your mom...sure she'll know.....it's that small bits of red seeds in herbal soups or chinese-style clear broth*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h4&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM3fvVa4N6I/AAAAAAAAAH4/8hQJYhlp5XE/s1600-h/650076.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM3fvVa4N6I/AAAAAAAAAH4/8hQJYhlp5XE/s320/650076.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246095145253222306" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Buckwheat Pasta&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM3fvvYKnKI/AAAAAAAAAIA/SmIbQIte9S0/s1600-h/soba_m.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM3fvvYKnKI/AAAAAAAAAIA/SmIbQIte9S0/s320/soba_m.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246095152221166754" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;h4 style="text-align: center;"&gt;Soba Noodles&lt;/h4&gt;&lt;h4 style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Buckwheat pasta/Soba Noodles&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Swap plain noodles for this hearty variety; you'll slip into your skinny jeans in no time. "Buckwheat is high in fiber and, unlike most carbs, contains protein," Zuckerbrot says. "Those two nutrients make it very satiating, so it's harder to overeat buckwheat pasta than the regular stuff."&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Eat more&lt;/strong&gt; Cook this pasta as you do rice: Simmer it, covered, over low heat. For a light meal, toss cooked buckwheat pasta with broccoli, carrots, mushrooms and onions. Or make buckwheat crepes using &lt;a href="http://www.self.com/health/recipes/2008/07/0721buckwheatcrepes?mbid=yshine_self" rel="nofollow"&gt;our tasty recipe&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*Both are derived from &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckwheat"&gt;buckwheat&lt;/a&gt; which is totally different from the normal wheat that we are used to see or consuming.

A study from the University of Toronto found that people who ate almonds with white bread didn't experience the same blood sugar surges as those who ate only the slice. "The higher blood sugar levels rise, the lower they fall; that dip leads to hunger, causing people to overeat," says study author Cyril Kendall, Ph.D. "Furthermore, blood sugar changes cause the body to make insulin, which can increase abdominal fat."&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Eat more&lt;/strong&gt; Try it for a change from peanut butter in sandwiches, or make a veggie dip: Mix 1 tbsp almond butter with 2 tbsp fat-free plain yogurt, Iserloh suggests. Or add a dollop to oatmeal for flavor and protein.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*Think of it like your regular peanut butter but only more flavorful and richer in taste.*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h4&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4D8F_wwVI/AAAAAAAAAIQ/iYEMqbkd7eM/s1600-h/pomegranates.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4D8F_wwVI/AAAAAAAAAIQ/iYEMqbkd7eM/s400/pomegranates.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246134946869854546" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;h4 style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomegranates"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pomegranates&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The juice gets all the hype for being healthy, but pomegranate seeds deserve their own spotlight. In addition to being loaded with folate and disease-fighting antioxidants, they're low in calories and high in fiber, so they satisfy your sweet tooth without blowing your diet, Krieger says.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Eat more&lt;/strong&gt; Pop the raw seeds on their own (many grocery stores sell them preshucked) as a snack at your desk. "Use them in salads instead of nuts," Iserloh says. "They're especially delicious on raw baby spinach with lemon–poppy seed dressing." For another take on the seeds, use our easy recipe for &lt;a href="http://www.self.com/health/recipes/2008/07/0721pomegranatesalsa?mbid=yshine_self" rel="nofollow"&gt;sweet and spicy pomegranate salsa&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*Not really a big fan of this fruit*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4EY9iletI/AAAAAAAAAIY/rs1gBuZUa5w/s1600-h/Thick+Oats.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4EY9iletI/AAAAAAAAAIY/rs1gBuZUa5w/s400/Thick+Oats.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246135442816203474" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;h4 style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oats"&gt;Oats&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;  &lt;p&gt;"Oatmeal has the highest satiety ranking of any food," Grotto says. "Unlike many other carbohydrates, oats—even the instant kind—digest slowly, so they have little impact on your blood sugar." All oats are healthful, but the steel-cut and rolled varieties (which are minimally processed) have up to 5 grams of fiber per serving, making them the most filling choice. Instant oats contain 3 to 4 grams per serving.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eat more&lt;/b&gt; "Instead of using breadcrumbs, add oats to meat loaf—about 1 cup for a recipe that serves eight," Iserloh recommends.

"They're high in protein and soluble fiber, two nutrients that stabilize blood sugar levels," says Tanya Zuckerbrot, R.D., author of &lt;i&gt;The F-Factor Diet&lt;/i&gt; (Putnam Adult). "Eating them helps prevent insulin spikes that cause your body to create excess fat, especially in the abdominal area."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div id="articlebody"&gt;                      &lt;div id="articletext"&gt;                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eat more&lt;/b&gt; There are many varieties of lentils, but red and yellow cook fastest (in about 15 to 20 minutes). Add cooked lentils to pasta sauce for a heartier dish, Zuckerbrot suggests. "Their mild flavor blends right in, and because they're high in protein, you can skip meat altogether."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*i love it as a snack and also as dhal curry with roti canai in the mornings or lunchtime*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4FvDnL3rI/AAAAAAAAAIo/CBLMDNqkzlA/s1600-h/AlaskaSalmonDish.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4FvDnL3rI/AAAAAAAAAIo/CBLMDNqkzlA/s400/AlaskaSalmonDish.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246136921914859186" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salmon"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Wild salmon&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Not only do fish fats keep your heart healthy, but they shrink your waist, too. "Omega-3 fatty acids improve insulin sensitivity—which helps build muscle and decrease belly fat," Grotto explains. And the more muscle you have, the more calories your body burns. Opt for wild salmon; it may contain fewer pollutants.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eat more&lt;/b&gt; You don't need to do much to enhance salmon's taste, says Sidra Forman, a chef and writer in Washington, D.C. "Simple is best. Season a fillet with salt and pepper, then cook it in a hot pan with 2 tsp oil for 1 to 3 minutes on each side."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*fried, stimmed, sahsimi, sushi, grilled......good!!!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4GSDV5NQI/AAAAAAAAAIw/p0lZOZ0WblQ/s1600-h/BB982475.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4GSDV5NQI/AAAAAAAAAIw/p0lZOZ0WblQ/s400/BB982475.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246137523137754370" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Apples&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;An apple a day can keep weight gain at bay, finds a study from Penn State University at University Park. People who chomped an apple before a pasta meal ate fewer calories overall than those who had a different snack. "Apples are high in fiber—4 to 5 grams each—which makes them filling," says Susan Kraus, R.D., a clinical dietitian at Hackensack University Medical Center in New Jersey. Plus, the antioxidants in apples may help prevent metabolic syndrome, a condition marked by excess belly fat or an "apple shape."&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eat more&lt;/b&gt; Apples are the ideal on-the-go low-calorie snack. For a pielike treat, chop up a medium apple and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp allspice and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Pop in the microwave for 1 1/2 minutes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*An apple a day keeps the Doctor away*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4H7eF5wBI/AAAAAAAAAI4/l4HMAuDlAek/s1600-h/FCS-Blueberries.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4H7eF5wBI/AAAAAAAAAI4/l4HMAuDlAek/s400/FCS-Blueberries.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246139334204702738" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;h4 style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blueberries"&gt;Blueberries&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;  &lt;p&gt;All berries are good for you, but those with a blue hue are among the best of the bunch. They have the highest antioxidant level of all commonly consumed fruit, according to research from the USDA Agriculture Research Service in Little Rock, Arkansas. They also deliver 3.6 grams of fiber per cup. "Fiber may actually prevent some of the fat you eat from being absorbed because fiber pulls fat through the digestive tract," Zuckerbrot says.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eat more&lt;/b&gt; Instead of topping your cereal with fruit, fill your bowl with blueberries, then sprinkle cereal on top and add milk or yogurt, Iserloh recommends.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*Blueberry cheesecake....not as good as strawberry cheesecake, but it'll do.....*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4ImzO5w3I/AAAAAAAAAJA/Zjc98kchwWM/s1600-h/IMG_1525-chiles%231--400x300.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4ImzO5w3I/AAAAAAAAAJA/Zjc98kchwWM/s400/IMG_1525-chiles%231--400x300.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246140078613971826" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;h4 style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chili_pepper"&gt;Chillies&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;  &lt;p&gt;One reason to spice up your meals: You'll crank up your metabolism. "A compound in chiles called capsaicin has a thermogenic effect, meaning it causes the body to burn extra calories for 20 minutes after you eat the chiles," Zuckerbrot explains. Plus, "you can't gulp down spicy food," she adds. "Eating slowly gives your brain time to register that your stomach is full, so you won't overeat."&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eat more&lt;/b&gt; Stuff chiles with cooked quinoa and marinara sauce, then roast them. To mellow a chile's heat, grill it until it's almost black, peel off charred skin and puree the flesh, Krieger says. Add the puree to pasta sauces for a one-alarm kick. Or stir red pepper flakes into any dish you enjoy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*Hot and as spicy as you can make it....*&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4JMemaQsI/AAAAAAAAAJI/uzpxKxMIdyo/s1600-h/Fruit+and+Yogurt+Jelly.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4JMemaQsI/AAAAAAAAAJI/uzpxKxMIdyo/s320/Fruit+and+Yogurt+Jelly.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246140725910454978" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;h4 style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yogurt"&gt;Yogurt&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Dietitians often refer to plain yogurt as the perfect food, and for good reason: With its trifecta of carbs, protein and fat, it can stave off hunger by keeping blood sugar levels steady. In a study from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, people on a low-calorie diet that included yogurt lost 61 percent more fat overall and 81 percent more belly fat than those on a similar plan but without yogurt.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eat more&lt;/b&gt; "Use lowfat plain yogurt instead of mayonnaise in chicken or potato salad, or top a baked potato with a bit of yogurt and a squeeze of lemon juice," Krieger says. You'll save 4.7 grams of fat per tablespoon. Look for Greek yogurt, which has more protein than other versions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*Seldom had yogurt but always in my cheesecake....dunno why...*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4JniZ-1lI/AAAAAAAAAJQ/--Efe7fNa-E/s1600-h/sardine.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4JniZ-1lI/AAAAAAAAAJQ/--Efe7fNa-E/s400/sardine.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246141190788535890" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sardines"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Sardines&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p&gt;These tiny fish are the unsung stars of the sea. They are high in protein and loaded with omega-3s, which also help the body maintain muscle. And they're low in mercury and high in calcium, making them a smart fish pick for pregnant women. If the flavor doesn't appeal to you, "soak them in milk for an hour; it will remove any trace of fishiness," Iserloh says.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eat more&lt;/b&gt; "Use sardines in recipes you like that call for anchovies, including Caesar salad and stuffing," Iserloh says. Or make a sardine melt: Toss whole sardines with chopped onions, fresh herbs and diced bell peppers. Put the mixture on top of a slice of pumpernickel or rye bread, cover with a slice of cheddar and broil.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*Only had sardine in a can......it's as good as the real stuff..i think.....*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4KDIFzzJI/AAAAAAAAAJY/Mh8nlDfFS8g/s1600-h/agt0206-11%28t%29wm-main10191407.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4KDIFzzJI/AAAAAAAAAJY/Mh8nlDfFS8g/s400/agt0206-11%28t%29wm-main10191407.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246141664760941714" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarragon"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Tarragon&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;     &lt;p&gt;You can use this herb, a staple in French cooking, in place of salt in marinades and salad dressings. Excess sodium causes your body to retain water, so using less salt can keep bloating at bay. Plus, tarragon lends a sweet, licoricelike flavor to bland foods. (Use the French version of the herb when possible; it's sweeter than other varieties.)&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eat more&lt;/b&gt; Rub 2 tbsp dried tarragon on chicken before baking or grilling. Or make a tasty dip by mixing 1 tsp chopped fresh tarragon into 4 oz lowfat plain yogurt and 1 tsp Dijon mustard, recommends Jacquelyn Buchanan, director of culinary development at Laura Chenel's Chèvre, a &lt;i&gt;fromagerie&lt;/i&gt; in Sonoma, California.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*Not a really big fan of this particular but goes well with chicken dishes*&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4KfH96MmI/AAAAAAAAAJg/NvceKKWaXqo/s1600-h/parmesan.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4KfH96MmI/AAAAAAAAAJg/NvceKKWaXqo/s400/parmesan.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246142145764143714" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parmesan"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Parmesan&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;Drop that rubbery lowfat cheese and pick up the real stuff. Women who had one serving of whole milk or cheese daily were less likely to gain weight over time, a study in &lt;i&gt;The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition&lt;/i&gt; finds. Lowfat-dairy fans didn't experience the same benefit. Whole dairy may have more conjugated linoleic acid, which might help your body burn fat. "Parmesan is so flavorful, it's easy to stick to one serving," Buchanan says.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eat more&lt;/b&gt; "Grate Parmesan over roasted vegetables," Buchanan offers. Or snack on a 1-ounce portion with an apple or a pear.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*Must have parmesan on everything!!!!!~pizza, spaghetti, roast chicken, etc!!!!! *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4K7vfL-LI/AAAAAAAAAJo/2VXEYIPIHJc/s1600-h/AvocadoPhoto.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4K7vfL-LI/AAAAAAAAAJo/2VXEYIPIHJc/s400/AvocadoPhoto.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246142637409040562" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;h4 style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avocado"&gt;Avocado&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Don't let the fat content of an avocado (29 grams) scare you—that's what makes it a top weight loss food, Kraus says. "The heart-healthy monounsaturated fat it contains increases satiety," she says. And it's terrific summer party food.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div id="articlebody"&gt;                      &lt;div id="articletext"&gt;                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eat more&lt;/b&gt; Add avocado to your sandwich instead of mayo for a creamy texture and a shot of flavor. Avocados do contain a lot of calories, so it's best to watch your portions. They're easy to pack in your lunch and pair with chopped vegetables.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*ME no likey......taste weird*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4LXHsZvmI/AAAAAAAAAJw/z9Nf1oYABQc/s1600-h/olive-oil-ga-4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SM4LXHsZvmI/AAAAAAAAAJw/z9Nf1oYABQc/s400/olive-oil-ga-4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246143107763388002" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;h4&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olive_oil"&gt;Olive oil&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Like avocados, olive oil has healthy fat that increases satiety, taming your appetite. But that's hardly its only slimming feature. "Research shows it has anti-inflammatory properties," Kraus says. Chronic inflammation in the body is linked to metabolic syndrome.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eat more&lt;/b&gt; Drizzle your salad with olive oil and you'll increase the antioxidant power of your veggies, a study published in the &lt;i&gt;British Journal of Nutrition&lt;/i&gt; notes. Or toss pasta with a few teaspoons of olive oil, fresh basil and sautéed garlic, Kraus suggests. Add this oil to your summer menus for a flatter tummy by fall.&lt;/p&gt;                                               &lt;/div&gt;                                    &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;                                    &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;*Olive oil producing countries swears by it.....I dun remember which country, most of the olive oil makers drinks a tablespoon or a small cup full of olive oil a day.....*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eat....can eat &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;lah&lt;/span&gt;, but in moderate amount. Don't over do it and then blame me later.

     &lt;h2 style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;" id="story_byline"&gt;By SHAHANAAZ HABIB&lt;/h2&gt;             &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;KUALA LUMPUR: The Government will respond to issues raised in the new media and post replies to the wild and baseless allegations made on blogs and websites, said Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;“We have decided that being quiet and silent is not an option,” the Deputy Prime Minister said during a question and answer session at the Asia Media Summit 2008.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;He acknowledged that the Government had overlooked the impact of engaging the new media during the recent general election which was a new dimension in winning over public opinion.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;Admitting that the government-of-the-day had not been savvy in engaging new media so much so that it lost out in cyberspace.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;“But we live and learn,” he said.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;Najib said it was obvious that the Barisan Nasional government would now need to engage the new media.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;“We need to have people who are active participants of the new media, who are sympathetic and understanding of the Government’s position.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;“Therefore instead of just criticising them (new media) or running them down, the best thing to do is to engage them. Hopefully they will understand our perspective,” he said.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;He added these were the two things that the Government had to do immediately in dealing with the realities of the new media.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;To another question, Najib said the Government gave the mainstream and new media a great deal of latitude to criticise them “but there is a line which shouldn’t be crossed” because it could undermine the wider interest of society.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;He said the media in trying to clamour for wider readership at times exploited or exaggerated certain issues to get higher readership but the cost was injurious and detrimental to social unity.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;Answering a question on action taken against blogger Raja Petra, Najib said he (Raja Petra) was charged with breaking the laws of the country and inciting baseless allegations and making seditious remarks.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;He said Raja Petra had been free to criticise the Government “very robustly and stridently” in his blog for years and the Government had never taken any action against him.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;“But when certain things he said constitute a very serious attack against the institution, the Attorney-General decided that he crossed the line.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;“We are not apologetic and we don’t intend to apologise. That is the way things are in Malaysia. We do allow a lot of criticism much more than many countries but there is a line that you can’t cross,” he added.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;He said Raja Petra was not jailed for the charge but spent a day or two in jail because he refused to pay the bail.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;“Then he realised it was better to be outside jail so he took the bail,” he said, adding even this was paid for through donations raised for him through the Internet.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;Other than the new media, Najib said since the general election the established media too had become more and more critical.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: georgia;"&gt;“If you read the newspapers on a daily basis, you will see that they don’t hold their punches even criticising the Government. If they know there are weaknesses or abuse of power anywhere, they will latch on to it and criticise the Government and individuals openly,” he added.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Cheers......&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9883300-3638696062935044236?l=cherryblossom86.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cherryblossom86.blogspot.com/feeds/3638696062935044236/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9883300&amp;postID=3638696062935044236&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9883300/posts/default/3638696062935044236'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9883300/posts/default/3638696062935044236'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cherryblossom86.blogspot.com/2008/05/sienzzz.html' title='Sienzzz.....'/><author><name>Jason Choo</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08549666939565172243</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='16068851200656389418'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9883300.post-7294595186532529964</id><published>2008-05-22T12:45:00.004+08:00</published><updated>2008-05-22T13:57:47.864+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='opinion'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Event'/><title type='text'>Tribute to Manchester United!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SDT6-HmH3pI/AAAAAAAAAEw/j6t1xIR4HbQ/s1600-h/united-500.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SDT6-HmH3pI/AAAAAAAAAEw/j6t1xIR4HbQ/s400/united-500.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5203059414617546386" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;European Champion's League 2007/2008 Winners&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;MANCHESTER UNITED!!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;pictures from &lt;a href="www.soccernet.com"&gt;Soccernet.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;FINALLY!!!!! After  almost 8 years of trial and tribulation.........ManU has finally won the Champion's league title for only the third time!!!! And the best part is......ManU has did a "double" by winning the English Premier League Title and, today, the Euro' Champ's league. On top of that ManU did another double on Chelsea by denying them of both the title......Avram Grant could have win it all but lack the experience of high octane matches like this which on the contrary, Sir Alex Ferguson has numerous nail-bitting experience that led ManU what they are today......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Having won everything in his 20 illustrious career at ManU, this is Sir Alex's first win in a penalty shoot-out in the Champion's league. On the other hand the "Yahudi Mabuk"(not being racist, but that what i heard in the background of the mamak i was in just now....kept me laughing like mad with the creativity of our malay friends) Avram Grant just started managing a team only this season......so, to put it in a nutshell, experience does play it's part.....But, good try anyway, Grant.......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The freaking match has full of up's and down's...... it's was tied in the full 90 minutes, 1-1......where Frank Lampard cancel out Cristiano Ronaldo's goal in the dying minutes of half-time......Chelsea was unlucky to get 2 shots of the woodwork which could spell disaster for ManU&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SDT6-XmH3qI/AAAAAAAAAE4/UBg_YakrB9E/s1600-h/drogba-500.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SDT6-XmH3qI/AAAAAAAAAE4/UBg_YakrB9E/s400/drogba-500.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5203059418912513698" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;Drogba getting a Red Card after "slapping" Nemanja Vidić&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;pictures from &lt;a href="www.soccernet.com"&gt;Soccernet.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;It was a silly mistake by the Chelsea striker for not keeping his cool during injury time and got send off by the referee.....too bad : (&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chelsea was dominant for the full 90 minutes as ManU was forced to guard their half for the second half and also the 30 minutes extra time......They has 24 shots on goal while ManU was not even close to that figure.....ManU were like a toothless tiger that time.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then came was everyone feared the most........Penalty Shootout!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ManU started first.........

For example, Grant Masaru Imahara(It's a person's name, don't believe, go see &lt;a href="http://dsc.discovery.com/fansites/mythbusters/mythbusters.html"&gt;Mythbusters&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't get me wrong, i have no bones to pick on people who have an English name. It's fine for me but up to a certain extend.......What bugs and annoys me, is that you'll have so people who try to be "special" by choosing something unusual to be their name......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The usage of animal, fruits(some of them)names or things/objects like FISH, WATERMELON, ORANGE, TIGER..... Come on!!!! there's gotta be a better name then this!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have some friends(more like acquaintance) name themselves with fruits......so fruits i can take like Apple or Cherry but Watermelon Leong???? that's gone tooooo far.......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was thinking a bit shallow about this topic, but then, something struck me, that some of their English name is associated with their cultural names....mainly Chinese......or almost sound the same as the last name....like mine lah.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If in that case, then, most of this people should pick something you like or that suits you and not worry that it's doesn't fit your cultural name....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the way, i still cannot &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-size:100%;" &gt;tahan &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;the name &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_Leong"&gt;Fish Leong&lt;/a&gt;. She's a singer born in Malaysia......Dunno why she'll not use her stage name, Jasmine.......Isn't it more sweeter??? it suits more then "Fish".....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Probably is not her fault tho'. Could be her agent or publisher wanted something unique and decided to choose for her "Fish"....good choice......my foot!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For people who wants to have an English name to add to your cultural name, please choose wisely and try not to take it from inanimate objects because it really does not suit anybody......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before i end this post, i have a video link on what Chinese people choose for their English name......Quite funny......Thanks to Samanfar and Smacker.......wakakakaka&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;object height="355" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/S3U5u3D2L9Q&amp;amp;hl=en"&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/S3U5u3D2L9Q&amp;amp;hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" height="355" width="425"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9883300-8627511396396522308?l=cherryblossom86.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cherryblossom86.blogspot.com/feeds/8627511396396522308/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9883300&amp;postID=8627511396396522308&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9883300/posts/default/8627511396396522308'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9883300/posts/default/8627511396396522308'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cherryblossom86.blogspot.com/2008/05/whats-in-name.html' title='What&apos;s in a name.....'/><author><name>Jason Choo</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08549666939565172243</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='16068851200656389418'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9883300.post-985534059776097877</id><published>2008-05-07T06:11:00.003+08:00</published><updated>2008-05-07T06:20:16.436+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Event'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Video'/><title type='text'>Freeze @ Sunway Pyramid for World Earth Day</title><content type='html'>This post is way overdue as the people in &lt;a href="http://randomalphabets.com/"&gt;randomalphabets&lt;/a&gt;

She was so outstanding, many guys chasing after her, while he so  normal, nobody paid attention to him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;         At the end of the party, he invited her to have  coffee with him, she was surprised, but due to being polite, she promised. They  sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything, she felt  uncomfortable, she thought, please, let me go home....    suddenly he asked the  waiter. "would you please give me some salt? I'd like to put  it in my  coffee."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:Tahoma;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:Tahoma;font-size:78%;"  &gt;                       &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;Everybody stared at him, so strange! His face turned red, but still, he  put the salt in his coffee and drank it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" &gt;          She asked him curiously; why you have this hobby? He replied:  "when I was a little boy, I was living near the sea, I like playing in the sea,  I could feel the taste of the sea, just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now  every time I have the salty coffee, I always think of my childhood, think of my  hometown, I miss my hometown so much, I miss my parents who are still living  there". While saying that tears filled his eyes. She was deeply  touched&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:78%;"  &gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;                   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;That's his  true feeling, from the bottom of his heart. A man who can tell out his  homesickness, he must be a man who loves home, cares about home, has  responsibility of home.      &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;                   Then she also started to speak, spoke  about her faraway hometown, her childhood, her family. That was a really nice  talk, also a beautiful beginning of their story.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" &gt;                &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;  They continued to  date. She found that actually he was a man who meets all her demands; he had  tolerance, was kind hearted, warm, careful. He was such a good person but she  almost missed him! Thanks to his salty coffee!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;                    Then the story was  just like every beautiful love story , the princess married to the prince, then  they were living the happy life... And, every time she made coffee for him, she  put some salt in the coffee e, as she knew that's the way he liked it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;                  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;  After 40 years, he passed away, left  her a letter which said: "My dearest, please forgive me, forgive my whole life  lie. This was the only lie I said to you---the salty coffee. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;                   Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous at  that time, actually I wanted some sugar, but I said salt.   It was hard for me  to change so I just went ahead.I never thought that could be the start of our  communication! I tried to tell you the truth many times in my life, but I was  too afraid to do that, as I have promised not to lie to you for anything..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;                 &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;Now I'm dying, I afraid of nothing so I  tell you the truth: I don't like the salty coffee, what a strange bad taste..     But I have had the salty coffee for my whole life! Since I knew you, I never  feel sorry for anything I do for you. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;             &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 255);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 255);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;Having you with me is my  biggest happiness for my whole life. If I can live for the second time, still  want to know you and have you for my whole life,even though I have to drink the  salty coffee again".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;              Her tears made the letter totally wet.Someday, someone  asked her: what's the taste of salty coffee?&lt;br /&gt;It's sweet. She replied.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Tahoma;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;&lt;b&gt;Love is not 2 forget but 2 forgive, not 2 c but 2 understand, not 2  hear but 2 listen, not 2 let go but 2 HOLD ON !!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 204);font-family:Tahoma;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;"  &gt;Don't ever leave the one you love for the one you like,  because the one you like will leave you for the one they love.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9883300-9054121474321894682?l=cherryblossom86.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cherryblossom86.blogspot.com/feeds/9054121474321894682/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9883300&amp;postID=9054121474321894682&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9883300/posts/default/9054121474321894682'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9883300/posts/default/9054121474321894682'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cherryblossom86.blogspot.com/2008/05/very-cute-love-story.html' title='A very cute love story.......'/><author><name>Jason Choo</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08549666939565172243</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='16068851200656389418'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp1.blogger.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SBigsOWXkkI/AAAAAAAAADY/zBegEvgz8cg/s72-c/holding+hands.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9883300.post-120738741845029155</id><published>2008-04-22T14:09:00.006+08:00</published><updated>2008-04-22T14:45:16.784+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Event'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Video'/><title type='text'>Freeze for World Earth Day 2008</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SA2IwuWXkjI/AAAAAAAAADQ/Iks1QAygeF8/s1600-h/adriennelay.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_pF3m_QGDKjs/SA2IwuWXkjI/AAAAAAAAADQ/Iks1QAygeF8/s320/adriennelay.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5191956316084998706" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;April 22 is know around the world as "Earth Day" since 1970. The history was a bit(actually very!!!) lengthy, that i didn't bother to read it......if you guys want more info, you can check &lt;a href="http://wikipedia.org/"&gt;wikipedia&lt;/a&gt; for it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you know, if there's any special day, there bound to be some special events and Earth Day has no exceptions as well. In conjunction with Earth Day, People decided to just "freeze" for 4 minutes. Sounds kinda lame huh???&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actually it's more hilarious then you think. Imagine, you, just walking in a shopping complex or the train station, then at the stroke of the hour, you freeze!!!......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People would be wandering, "what the heck????".  As you freeze, you'll see other people's reaction towards your action and thinking, "what is going on???"....You'll actually try not to laugh before the 4 minutes and wanna look at their reactions more.....haha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's no fun doing it alone. People might think you have just escape from &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Tanjung Rambutan&lt;/span&gt; or something. Do it with a group of people or a crowd. This is more fun and you'll remember to the day you die.......or something exciting happens to you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a reason why people just participate in this event. The reason is that the average person globally uses 2255 Watts of power, or a little less than 23 x100 Watt light bulbs.
