Uber meltdown, even I just paid my bill.

It could be the base station again, canopy antenna, wire cable eaten by rats again or simple the service sucks bigtime.

Smartbroken… I wish I have other options :(

WordPress 2.9.1 was out not long ago, but be careful when upgrading. Check out if your wordpress plugins works with the current version. Many have already experienced that upgrading right away causes some problems on some plugins. Be weary! :)

How to gain weight the healthy way

I got this simple way of gaining way the healthy way from medicinenet.com:

Recommended Ways to Gain Weight

* Have meals with the right balance of proteins, carbohydrates, and the right kinds of fat (such as unsaturated and monounsaturated fats, olive oil, canola oil, pistachios, almonds and walnuts). Heinemann suggests the following ratio: 60%-70% carbohydrates, 10%-15% protein, and a small amount of fat.
* Eat foods higher in calories, vitamins, and minerals, as opposed to higher in fat or sugar.
* Pack more nutritious calories in each serving. For example, you may add grated cooked eggs to mashed potatoes, ground chicken to soups and gravies, cheese in casseroles, eggs, and soups, and nonfat dried milk in soups, shakes, milk, and mashed potatoes.
* If you get too full too fast, try having more high-calorie foods or slices of foods as opposed to consuming the whole thing (raisins versus grapes, granola and Grape Nuts versus corn flakes, mango slices versus the whole mango).
* Limit drinking beverages to a half-hour before and after a meal.
* Drink mixed juices (apple/berry, peach/orange/banana as opposed to one juice beverages) for a higher calorie intake.
* Try a small amount of alcohol (4 ounces of wine, 6 ounces of beer, or a half-ounce of liquor with juice) before a meal, as it could stimulate appetite. Moore warns, however, that this recommendation must be cleared with your doctor, especially if you are on any medication. Too much alcohol can be detrimental to health, and could lessen your resolve for eating healthy.
* With moderation, you may add in good fat sources to meals such as nuts, avocado, olives, and fatty fish (salmon and mackerel).
* Snack in between meals. Nuts, dried fruits, and yogurt are good options, but it’s also important to find nutritious foods that you will enjoy.
* Have a nutritious snack before bedtime, such as a peanut butter sandwich.

…and also from my point of view, healthy lifestyle is also crucial. I also believe that the pointers above apply also to loosing weight, just add exercise to the formula. If you think about it, all good/right tips about loosing/gaining weight are all the same quality. The only problem with this formula is that we don’t have time to spare.

There is also a belief or saying (is it quote?) that “What the mind can conceive, the body can achieve…”

If you think and discipline yourself to gain weight, you will gain weight… and vice versa…

Have a healthy lifestyle!
