Download or read book I m Like SO Fat written by Dianne Neumark-Sztainer and published by Guilford Press. This book was released on 2011-12-08 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s hard to decide which is more frightening--the “food” teenagers enjoy, or the things they say about their bodies. Whether it’s your son’s passion for chips and soda or your daughter’s announcement that she “feels fat,” kids’ attitude about how they look and what they should eat often seem devoid of common sense. In a world where television and school cafeterias push super-sized sandwiches while magazines feature pencil-thin models, many teens feel pressured to starve themselves and others eat way too much. Blending her experience as the mother of four with results from a survey of nearly 5,000 teens, Dr. Diane Neumark-Sztainer shows you how to respond constructively to “fat talk,” counteract negative media messages, and give your kids the straight story about nutrition and calories, the dangers of dieting, and eating right when they’re away from home. Full of examples illustrating the challenges teens face today, this upbeat and insightful book is packed with great ideas that will help kids everywhere feel better about their looks and make healthier choices about eating and exercise.

Ocean Barcellus gains the whole world and loses everything in one night. She finally gets her special moment with the boy who holds her heart, only to have him taken from her before love can be shared. Ocean plans to fulfill both of their dreams until he returns, but an act of betrayal causes her life to go in a direction that she never saw coming. Onyx is on the threshold of greatness. His boxing career is on the rise, and he is at the top of his street game. One night changes everything when he sacrifices himself to save Ocean, the girl who could've been his first love. Now faced with a prison sentence, Onyx prepares to do his time and come home to his dream girl. Unfortunately, his brother, Bronte, has other plans, and he doesn't mind breaking hearts and ruining lives to get what he wants. When Onyx and Ocean finally face each other again, years later, the pain, heartbreak, and bitterness quickly rise to the surface. However, the love that never got a chance to flourish rises as well. They are both in complicated romantic situations, but are they willing to risk it all for love? Ebony Diamonds is back with another twisted love story filled with envy, lust, betrayal, and her signature humor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Backstreet By: Daniel Vincent Pierce Three teenage boys, Michael, Sean, and Brandon, seem to be typical high school students at Evan Senior High School: they love sports, parties, and having fun. They all have to deal with different things while they grow up, but they eventually find friendship and support from each other. They discover a hot new hangout, BACKSTREET. It becomes the hottest place for teenagers to party on the weekends, but it also brings more danger than anyone could imagine. The three boys, misled by their arrogance and ego, don’t realize their bad decisions can haunt them for the rest of their life.

In particular those born in the 1950’s and 1960’s and remember the riots in the late 1960’s after Dr. King’s assassination.

Download or read book The Hungry Brain written by Stephan J. Guyenet, Ph.D. and published by Flatiron Books. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year From an obesity and neuroscience researcher with a knack for engaging, humorous storytelling, The Hungry Brain uses cutting-edge science to answer the questions: why do we overeat, and what can we do about it? No one wants to overeat. And certainly no one wants to overeat for years, become overweight, and end up with a high risk of diabetes or heart disease--yet two thirds of Americans do precisely that. Even though we know better, we often eat too much. Why does our behavior betray our own intentions to be lean and healthy? The problem, argues obesity and neuroscience researcher Stephan J. Guyenet, is not necessarily a lack of willpower or an incorrect understanding of what to eat. Rather, our appetites and food choices are led astray by ancient, instinctive brain circuits that play by the rules of a survival game that no longer exists. And these circuits don’t care about how you look in a bathing suit next summer. To make the case, The Hungry Brain takes readers on an eye-opening journey through cutting-edge neuroscience that has never before been available to a general audience. The Hungry Brain delivers profound insights into why the brain undermines our weight goals and transforms these insights into practical guidelines for eating well and staying slim. Along the way, it explores how the human brain works, revealing how this mysterious organ makes us who we are.

Book excerpt: It's three years later, and the grandkids are growing... but so are the life challenges they face! Some of them are dealing with the additional issues created by attending junior high and high school. They're playing football and basketball; participating in cheerleading competitions; building castles and dioramas for school projects; attending birthday parties and swim parties; making and revising their Christmas Lists; and generally keeping their parents and grandparents busy, with all of their activities and interests. There are more and more things they need to learn how to do, such as multiplication and division; how to ride a skateboard, or a bike; how to bake cookies; how to swim without touching the bottom of the pool; how to play the guitar; how to compute the tip to leave at a restaurant; how to download games and apps to a new mobile device; and much more. The questions they pose for Papa and Nana are getting more complex, too. Beginning with simpler questions like "Do whales eat people?"; "Can vampires come in the house if they're not invited?"; and "Is that a boy fish, or a girl fish?" they progress to more complex inquiries, such as, "Can animals talk?"; "Do other planets have days, like we do?"; "Do you believe in global warming?"; "What's it like to be an adult?"; "What do you think about the Big Bang?"; and "Do you believe in God?" Whether they're going to the Zoo; hosting a video game party; deciding which music video to watch first; visiting Papa at work; trying to cross a muddy path in the Nature Walk; reading a popular series of books; posting pictures on social media websites; dancing a Zumba workout; or making a Father's Day card, the activities and mishaps recounted in this book may help you to better appreciate the joy, wonder, and beauty of young people-and reinforce your belief in the ultimate and indispensable value of FAMILY.

Book excerpt: “My Children’s Guide Book” is a guide for the children, teenagers, adults, parents and grandparents in all generations to know more about how they should act to be the perfect worldwide citizens in this century as well as the coming centuries. This book illustrates the art of fats and the needs for growing up, the definition and examples of clean and the definition and examples of dirty, the important and urgency in mastering at least one language especially our international language, English, a suggestion of setting projects’ due dates and introduction of the progress tracking of any project or any activity. No worry! Many of us are very hardworking to earn for a living, and, yet, working smart is slowly and sooner penetrating our life for the great respect of the labour law revolution in the latest four generations; your grandparents, your parents, you and your children to share a borderline of ignoring responsibilities or being lazy. Of course, user innovation is a vocabulary to the majority and yet, an entrepreneurial ecosystem is built, where users find the solution or build something new to solve users’ daily problems. The different types of arts and the history of arts were highlighted by giving some good examples of vandalism, body art and the art creation by mentioned earlier parties or stakeholders. Plagiarism and citation are also the highlighters of this children’s guide. In order to have a balanced lifestyle; healthy body, healthy mind and healthy soul, this guide book says that body exercises are a must for all levels of human beings. Relationship education, the definition of love, types of body contact, culture and manner are also being highlighted.
