cravings

i’m gaining to much wieght. dieting is hard for me. i had 3 kids in 3 years so i put on alot. from 120 to 145, and i’m only 5’3″. when i was pregnant i never really had any cravings. my problem was my husband was in iraq and  i was dpressed. so i ate out or junk all the time. now that i’m not pregnant, i crave even more things than i did when i was pregnant.

one of the bad things about living on the east coast is the two things i’m craving, they don’y have here. wienersnitzel(i think thats spelled wrong) and jack in the box. those are more west coast restaurants. i guess it’s better there is not a wienerschnitzel out here. i’d eat there everyday.   my biggest challange is soda. i am a soda aholic, i have so much trouble giving it up.

how do you deal with your cravings? how do you fight them?

product review/ tooth tissues

i was sent some samples of tooth tissues, which i am so thankful for because my kids go to sleep drinking their juice. bad habit.  so now after they fall asleep i sneek in and wipe there teeth. i also took it with me to a lunch in which is great because i don’t carry around tooth brushes. i even used them myself. i give these products an A.

tooth tissues were created by two practicing general dentist. their daughter would fall asleep drinking her bottle and they ended up wiping her teeth with there shirts at night. according to the American associaton of pediatric dentist, they recommend wet a washcloth and wipe your child teeth. here they were two dentist having trouble following the rules. thats how tooth tissues was born.

the rate of decay in baby teeth is on the rise, a completely preventable disease. oral care for newborns and infants is lost in the overwhelming information given to new parents.

A LITTLE MORE ABOUT THE PRODUCT

tooth tissues are diposable dental wipes for baby and toddler smiles. the wipes uniquely textured to remove plaque and are saturated in a solution of cleaning and soothing ingrediants that are 99% natural. it also includes xylitol which has been proven to fight cavities and is also fluoride free, sugar free and paraben free.

mant people don’t know taht milk has natural sugars that can cause tooth decay.

from the time proper feeding habits are established through about 16 months or when back teeth are present, tooth tissues can be used alone, after that time they can be used as an adjunct to tooth brushing like when you are on the go.

A LITTLE MORE ON PEDIARTC DENTISTRY:

pediatric dentistry is a aged defined specialty that provides primary and comprehensive preventive and theraputic oral health care for infants and children through adolescence, including those with special health care needs.

there seems to be a lot of confusion amongst parents, pediatricians and dentists about the correct timimg for a firt dentist visit.  many dentist may tell parents not to bring your child in before they have all their primary teeth(age2 or 3), sometimes they even recommend to wait until the child is 6 years or until the child can sit still. dlaey of dental care can lead to catastrophic disease progression.

A CHILD SHOULD HAVE THEIR FIRST DENTAL VISIT BY THEIR FIRST BIRTHDAY

bottle feeding past 12 months can lead to a drastic increased risk.

*they are disgusting pictures but it will make you think twice about waiting to see a dentist
