Dieting. Something that many people try every year in an attempt to lose weight, get healthier, or get fitter. Well here is the Thanksgiving Diet, follow this and you're guaranteed to enjoy Thanksgiving and finish off the holiday full and happy!

1. Wear nice, but comfortable clothes (those stretchy jeans are great for this)

Its Thanksgiving, we still have to make sure that we look nice. But don't worry, all the rest of the steps will be ten times easier if you wear comfy clothes.



2. Talk about all the food, find out what all will be made

It's important to know the menu. Make mental notes of which of your favourite foods will be served, this will be vital for step 4.


3. Look at all the delicious food

Okay, so right now you're thinking. Wouldn't it just be easier if I avoid the food? That it would make it easier to not pig out? No, you have to look at the food, smell it. This gets you prepared for the next step.


4. Make your plate, go full out! Moderation comes into play in the following steps.

Seems the opposite of a typical diet? Well, this is Thanksgiving! Eating is one of the main events (besides football)!

5. Come on, you know grandma's stuffing is the best out there

You know you want another plate, its the only time you get grandma's special stuffing.


6. The turkey kicks in

Now, feeling sleepy about this point in time is normal. Its the turkey kicking in, take a little nap. It'll prepare you for the last step, step 7.



7. Grab a slice of your aunt's special pie

Grab a slice before settling down and watching the game with family. Who doesn't enjoy watching football on a comfy couch with a slice of pie in hand?

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
