Question by dakotahjake 171 · Jul 06, 2011 at 05:22 PM · grainsfamilysignificant-others
We both have been at an unhealthy weight the past few years, but over the last 6 months or so have been losing it. I started with a lot of workouts, high-protein but still putting plenty of crap into my body, and counting calories (which was working for me, but was a lot of work) then I switched to Paleo, and since I tend to be the cook, my girlfriend has, for the most part, been doing it with me as well (except sometimes when she leaves the house, it seems).
Anyway, I come home after a weekend away and find a bunch of soda and juice bottles in the recycling. I wake up, she appears to be eating Kashi's version of cinnamon toast crunch (at least it's whole grain?) with some skim milk from a chain grocery.
I cook my natural uncured bacon and local free range eggs and head out.
Is there a book I should ask her to read or something? Her stomach can't handle too much red meat, so I'm trying to not eat grassfed beef every day (though I have plenty of it and probably would if I could). It just bums me out seeing her do this to herself but I'm not one to impose my views on other people.

Keep doing what you are doing. Offer to make her lunch in order to keep her on track but only if she wants it. The more she sees your success she more she will probably have questions. Keep pluggin away are your body and more than likely she will follow suit.

Such a common issue. So many threads on this topic already, but each has its own spin. Each person has a different and unique scenario to work through.
First of all, great job on speaking up and asking what others think. Sometimes getting multiple perspectives really helps you understand how you can best help the situation for both you and your girlfriend.
I'm all over the comments here already, but I wanted to give my own fresh thoughts.
Is it best to let your loved ones do whatever they want? Does it matter if they are adults? Perhaps throw some comments out and she how she responds? Perhaps drop clues and hints and try to nudge her into more acute awareness of how her decisions may not be best for long term health? Is the 'heavy hand' approach applicable here? Is that too controlling? What if she feels judged?
When a person feels the need to give a loved one some advice, it can often be one of the most challenging and just downright difficult situations to work through. I think at the base of this is the human nature of feeling judged and controlled, combined with the need that most people have to feel accepted and to be heard. This can span across so many things that it's dizzying.
I have several of these type of scenarios going on in my life right now. How do I tell me mother-in-law that I don't want to eat the food she wants to cook for us? With some of the things she grew up eating... she thinks is good because well... "I'm still alive". is what she says. It's sort of a long term battle at the moment, but progess is being made all around. She is in our life forever, so we are choosing to massage the situation slowly, leading by example, showing her through continued practice that we do actually have some good insight to offer and that we're serious about it. Slowly but surely, she is beginning to understand.
When it comes to personal matters, it gets pretty dicey, which is most of the time. The topics that seem to spark the most controversy are religion, politics, sex, family, finance, and health.
In your case, I think you just care. I think you really love your girlfriend and want to continue to build a long term relationship, else it wouldn't make a lick of sense for you to come on here and seek help in this way. You'd have already 'dumped her' like Quilt says.
Badgering and pestering people almost never works, even with close family and friends. It violates too many aspects of human nature and people skills. Ever heard of the little ol' saying... "A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still."? Being judgemental or harsh with your approach also usually does not work, and can breed comtempt and jeopordize trust in the relationship. We are such tricky beings, us humans.
Personally, I have watched some of my closest people destroy their own health out of either ignorance, intentional poor decisions, or a combination of both. It's awful. It's awful enough to maybe make a person do something drastic out of love, like what Quilt describes.
Dakota - there's a lot of meat here to chew on from this community. I think leading by example, and explaining your concerns to her in an open, honest communicative way using whatever people skills you can muster will be your best approach. Then just keep the goal in mind and don't be dogmatic about what you think is best for her health. If, in all your efforts, you are seeing a bleak and discouraging road ahead of you, then you truly may want to consider the long term implications of a committed relationship when you believe that you may be at odds with each other on one of the key elements of daily life, health and wellness.

Chill. She's an adult who can make her own food choices and it's really not your job at all to try and control that or police what she's eating. Just because you've gone paleo doesn't mean your girlfriend is obligated to as well...not sure why you feel that way. It sounds from your post like she never really explicitly decided to do paleo, just that she goes along with you when you're around. Given that I'm not sure why you're disappointed with her. You might see it as "I'm helping her get healthy" but she's more than likely going to see "my boyfriend is being an overbearing asshole". If she doesn't want to change, she won't. She'll just resent you.
Maybe this sounds a little harsh but I'm not trying to rip on you. I'm just trying to put myself in your girlfriend's shoes and imagine how I would feel if my boyfriend didn't "approve" of what I was eating, no matter how good his intentions were.

I haven't said anything yet (which is why I posted looking for advice), and the way you put it is the approach that I have been taking. It's just a bummer to see a person that I love continue to make choices so harmful to themselves in the long run, and didn't know if/how to approach it.The selfish part of me remembers the way she looked when we first got together (surely she has felt the same way, even if neither of us have expressed it) and when stuff like this happens all I see is setbacks to getting back to where we both want to be.
Answer by JimmyK 620 · Jul 06, 2011 at 07:34 PM
My wife will not go Paleo, but since I cook she eats grass fed meats, lots of veggies and fish which she loves. But there are days when she wants rice or some type of pasta to go with what I make she makes that. She makes extra and reheats it a couple times a week. It keeps her happy, when we go out for dinner or travel she makes sure that I can eat Paleo as much as possible. We always try to respect each others needs, might be why we are married 32 years and are very happy. You need to ask yourself are you happy and is she happy. If you both are except for Paleo work with each other not against. A great other half is hard to find.

One of the most difficult things a couple can go through is change, but the difficult part is if you don't change together. Let me start out by saying what not to do. Do not pressure, insult, or harass her for not eating the way you do. This is a sure fire way to put a wedge in between your relationship. Food, like politics and religion, is a very personal issue and should be treated as such.
I suggested first lead by example. She will see you drop the weight and feel better quickly and that may be a enough to approach you for help, instead of you pushing it on her. Second, offer to do the cooking. I'm not sure how good of a cook you are, but I started doing all the cooking in my house, for everyone. I now wake up 15 minutes earlier and cook my wife and 2 sons eggs, bacon and some fruit in the morning before we are of to work and school. I pack all of their lunches and cook most of the dinners. Maybe try waking up one day earlier than her a cook her a nice breakfast in bed. Lastly, be encouraging. I'm not sure how your girlfriend is but my wife likes to hear encouraging words when she makes good choices. We as humans tend to focus to much on the negative and forget the positive.
Good luck it is certainly not an easy thing to tackle.

If she's not ready, she's not ready. Lead by example, keep cooking meals, and she may eventually notice the difference in how she feels. If it really matters to you, let her know that you are afraid that if you make this change without her it will eventually drive you apart. It doesn't have to drive you apart though. My husband doesn't do paleo and I don't try to push it on him, his family seems to be able to tolerate the SAD, and live to be quite old and healthy. He does however eat paleo by default at home most of the time because I've taken over the shopping and cooking. I think I did a little too much eye rolling and lecturing when we'd go grocery shopping together. We had A LOT of friction over this until I learned: don't lecture, just do.
After a lifetime of eating crap food, she may not internally be equipped with right gut flora to go straight into a paleo diet. "Needing" all that sugary stuff makes me think that systemic candida could be an issue, and even if she wanted to she would have a hard time avoiding sugar. Get some high quality probiotics and natural soil organisms into that girl pronto. It took me a full two months with some really high quality probiotics, but those little voices that "made" me buy donuts just went away one day, and it has been so quiet inside my head ever since. She may also have low stomach acid if she can't tolerate much red meat. When she is ready you could start seeing a paleo friendly nutritionist as a couple. It is amazing how much more receptive partners can be to info when it comes from someone outside the relationship.

Answer by UncleLongHair 960 · Jul 06, 2011 at 07:45 PM
After being married for 10 years, I can say that sometimes one of the hardest people to take advice from is your SO / spouse, when ironically they're often the best person to give you advice.
Let's just say that I would put relationship harmony ahead of dietary perfection in terms of priorities :-). People have to be in a certain frame of mind in order to take on the challenge of changing their diet and exercise patterns, and trying to hit someone with what might be good suggestions at the wrong time is not likely to get anywhere.
If she's open to learning more about it, you could bring it up as a way to inform her rather than criticize. If she isn't really interested... you might just impress her with your own improvements and see if she catches on.

Answer by melimel 877 · Jul 06, 2011 at 07:44 PM
To answer your question "How do keep from feeling upset...."
I would say that it's natural for you to have feelings, bad or good, about your partner and her choices. But I'd also say that your feelings about how she eats are not her problem - your feelings=your problem.
On the other hand, if you feel upset and then act like a jerk to her, that becomes her problem. So don't act like a jerk! (And if you haven't already been kind of a jerk by bugging her about this stuff- don't start!)
Can you focus on your own stuff and let her focus on her own stuff?
Or is her eating differently from you a dealbreaker? What if she stays overweight forever? Is that a dealbreaker? If it's not, you better figure out a way to let her live her life without making your feelings her problem.
You say you're overweight yourself - if your experience is anything like mine, I'm guessing that having people on your case about your "health" wasn't too motivating. People don't change until they're ready to change.

Answer by Gingernaut 629 · Jul 07, 2011 at 01:36 AM
I used to smoke, and my boyfriend at the time used to nag me insistently about it, and all it did was create resentment. I knew it wasn't healthy habit - as it happens, I'm a pretty smart cookie - but at the end of the day, all he managed to do was make me feel incapable of making healthy decisions for myself. That I needed to have my hand held. I understand that he was concerned for my health, I appreciated the concern, but his methods were found lacking.
As it happens, I did quit, by myself, after I ended my relationship with him (and not just because of the whole smoking thing, I assure you). I did it because I wanted to, not to appease someone else. That makes a world of difference.
Ultimately, no one here can give you THE foolproof way to handle this little roadbump. After all, we're not the ones who have to deal with the consequences, and we're not her. Nor do we know her. At best, I can say to just keep eating the way you're eating, and when she gets curious, answer her questions, or slip a book or URL her way. Don't let it eat away at you. While her decisions may frustrate you, that doesn't change the fact that it's ultimately her problem, and not yours. Other people here have said it, but it's worth repeating: you can't help her if she's not willing to help herself.

Answer by BAMBAM 3937 · Jul 06, 2011 at 10:11 PM
One of the more romantic realms of human life involves shared activities centered on food - growing it, harvesting it, hunting it, fishing for it, preparing it, cooking it, eating it, digesting it, even shopping can be an intimate experience. Try to find foods (WITHIN Paleo parameters) you can BOTH agree on. There are probably elements of the Paleo experience that she can indulge in and relish with the same fervor as you do!
So just sit down together, let her know you want to spoil her more often. Then, start to do more to make dining together a more romantic, mutually shared experience. Design a menu TOGETHER.
From there, take it a step further. Give her full body massages after meals as you rest and digest. Be spontaneous with your rewards but center the romance on the intimate experience that can be achieved through your connection with the extravagant offerings of the Earth.
Conversely, if you look at your diet as some sort of limitation, so will she. Paleo removes 2 food groups - true. But your choices from there are unlimited. Look at the diet as an opportunity for growth, revival, EVOLUTION and delicious taste.
You can learn to cook Paleo meals together and do everything from shopping for the elusive primal ingredients to licking clean her last spoonful.
The Paleo Diet is rich, flavorful and romantic.
Put your PALEO SWAGGER into it and you can make it that way for yourself and for HER.
Work it.
Work it.

Answer by Jess 1 47 · Jul 07, 2011 at 12:24 AM
First, recognize that she is most likely suffering from addictions - society-sanctioned addictions that are very difficult to recognize or imagine life without when you're in the middle of them. When you're in the middle of this, the idea of going paleo can feel like someone is asking you to give up everything that makes life worth living, and that paleo is only for people who really like veggies and liver, or who have more willpower. People in the middle of SAD addiction aren't easily able to see that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
I know that for me, I can look at people saying "I'd love to lose weight/have more energy/get rid of my autoimmune condition/whatever, but I could never give up bread/pastries/rice/peanut butter/sugar!" and think they're totally crazy for preferring to continue in pain than to even try. But when I stop and look back at where I used to be.. if you'd told me a year ago that I'd pass up free cookies and not feel the least bit deprived or regretful about it, I never would have believed you. But it was a series of baby steps that got me here, not a sudden leap.
Things that might help:
Ask her for help with your own diet. Say that you don't want to restrict what she eats, but that having it around the house makes it hard for you, so could she please just eat that stuff out of the house. (This works best if you're sincere about it and the stuff really is a temptation for you - if you're just saying it, it may come across as coercive.)
Focus on one issue at a time. See if she's willing to give gluten-free a try, and don't worry about carbs or other grains for the time being. Have good, appealing gluten-free food around - if it's paleo, all the better, but you might try Puffins cereal or something in place of the Kashi, for example. Look at dessert and treat recipes. Overcoming one hurdle, and learning to think outside the SAD box about food can make the rest seem more realistic.
Then, when she's ready, try dropping the grains and/or legumes. Or the processed food. Or HFCS. Or some other baby step. Or toss it up entirely and eliminate the processed food first, but continue with WAPF-style soaked/sprouted grains for a while. Focus on what she is willing to change, rather than trying to dump it all on her at once.
GAPS and SCD can be less intimidating than full-on paleo.
And, as others have said, just lead by example. Enjoy your improving health without being obnoxious about it. Make yummy paleo meals that you both enjoy. Share info with her if/when she's receptive. Enjoy your life and don't dwell on things you can't control.

An acclaimed, influential work now available in paper for the first time, this bestselling book applies the concepts of systemic family therapy to the emotional life of congregations. Edwin H. Friedman shows how the same understanding of family process that can aid clergy in their pastoral role also has important ramifications for negotiating congregational dynamics and functioning as an effective leader. Clergy from diverse denominations, as well as family therapists and counselors, have found that this book directly addresses the dilemmas and crises they encounter daily. It is widely used as a text in courses on family systems and pastoral care.

Sending Kids Off to College? Consider Packing ProbioticsSending Kids Off to College? Consider Packing ProbioticsThose who received the probiotic supplement experienced a shorter median duration (by two days) of upper respiratory tract infectionsCollege can be one of the most exciting times in a young person's life, but the experience can expose young adults to a host of viruses. Many of these upper respiratory tract infections are known as the common cold, and though a cold is rarely serious, it can cause plenty of misery and missed classes. A probiotic dietary supplement may be one easy way to lessen that misery, at least a bit.
Probiotic versus placebo
Researchers randomly assigned 231 healthy college students to take a probiotic dietary supplement or a placebo (no probiotic) once daily for 12 weeks. The probiotic provided a minimum daily dose of one billion colony-forming units (CFUs) of two probiotic bacteria: Lactobacillus rhamnosus LGG (LGG) and Bifidobacterium animalis subspecies lactis BB-12. A colony-forming unit is one live, viable bacterium that can reproduce.
Neither the students nor the researchers knew who received the probiotic or the placebo, and 198 students (86%) completed the entire 12-week study. Study participants provided information on whether, and how severely, they experienced symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection, as well as missed days of school and work throughout the research period.
Compared with students taking the placebo, those who received the probiotic supplement:
- experienced a shorter median duration (by two days) of upper respiratory tract infections when they caught a cold,
- had 34% less severe symptoms when they become sick, and
- missed 0.2 fewer school days.
Picking a probiotic, and other ways to nix a cold
This study was small and of short duration, but still, it points to a relatively simple thing that may help college kids bounce back faster when they catch a cold. Our tips on picking a probiotic, along with other cold-quashing ideas can help you keep the people in your life healthier.
- Pick a product. To use a probiotic to bolster defenses against the cold, make sure the product contains the right bacteria, in the right numbers. This study only looked at two specific bacteria. It is not known whether other probiotic strains would provide the same benefit.
- Address bigger issues. A probiotic cannot overcome all of the issues that make college students more susceptible to upper respiratory infections. Addressing these factors-inadequate sleep, stress, close living quarters, lack of exercise, and poor dietary habits-also should be a priority.
- Take simple measures. Though we often can't change the fact that students live in close quarters, basic hygiene is key to avoiding colds in these situations. Frequent hand washing, use of hand sanitizing products, and reminding young adults not to touch their faces during the day will go a long way toward keeping them healthy.
- Know your illness. Influenza is a systemic illness, and is much more serious than a cold. If you have a fever above 100 degrees, body aches, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, chills, or fatigue, call your doctor for advice on whether you need to come into the office, and what steps you can take to recover from the flu.

Comments about MILL CREEK 1008568 Biotene H-24® System Tri-Pack:
My hair is thinning. I have fine curly hair that is shoulder length. I would estimate loosing about 25-50 hairs a day. Mostly when I shower and brush afterwards (yes I count them). I tried this shampoo because the health food store recommended it. After I used the shampoo and conditioner I had over 100 hairs come out in my brush after the first try! also my scalp had a burning sensation and the odor/perfume is very chemically strong. The expiry on bottles I bought was June 2015. I read on another blog that anything with an exipry past 2014 is bad because MillCreek changed the formula. I wish I had researched a little more before I bought it. I am stopping use today and returning it. DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT! Your hair will FALL OUT!

Comments about MILL CREEK 1008568 Biotene H-24® System Tri-Pack:
I usually do not give negative reviews but I had to come back here to share my experience. After using the products (shampoo & conditioner) for about a month..washing once a week..my hair began to shed, break off and then eventually fell out. My hair is naturally coarse so I would not recommend using this product weekly if you have a similar texture hair. I recently had to cut all of my hair off to a short pixie cut because it was just that brittle, matted and damaged. No amount of oil treatments, conditioners or moisturizers could bring life back to my hair after attempting for about 4-5 months. It is unfortunate as my hair had grown below my shoulder blades which is the longest I'd ever worn it natural or relaxed. If your experience has been different and you have 4b-c hair please share how you maintained it so that others won't experience what I have.

This shampoo and conditioner is AMAZING! Smells nice, not overwhelming, but you can smell it! My hair is thinning due to PCOS, and I've been using this shampoo daily for 2 weeks, and my hair is looking fuller and feeling fuller. It is falling out much less...no more clogged drains...which would happen literally after two showers! I've tried this shampoo and another brand, and this is the one I am going to stick with! I don't like using the little serum that comes with it, so from now on I will just buy the shampoo and conditioner! So happy that I found this!

Comments about MILL CREEK 1008568 Biotene H-24® System Tri-Pack:
This system is AWESOME! I was a little concerned that Phase III would leave my hair sticky and weighed down, however, it is completely weightless! It melts into your hair and scalp. i put a black rinse in my hair a couple months ago, and since then, my hair has been like straw after I blowdry. This time, I washed with Prell shampoo to try and strip the color, and then I used this system. My hair felt like silk after I blowdried it. The conditioner is very moisturizing and also has a silkening affect, because I was able to comb through my curly hair while it was wet. Also, I didn't need to use my deep conditioner that I use with my usual products. My hair felt so good, I couldn't believe it! I have officially found a new favorite, and will continue to use. BTW, I am African American. I don't believe in that curl pattern/texture/type system, so I won't even bother to try and classify my hair.

Comments about MILL CREEK 1008568 Biotene H-24® System Tri-Pack:
These products are not 100% natural which makes them really good!! (because normally 100% natural leaves hair not clean and they don't have any smell... so i was expecting something gross..). These products, actually, smell good, feel good on hair, and the shampoo actually makes bubbles ^.^!!
My favorite is the shampoo. It's very soothing; it leaves hair soft.
The emulsion is not bad, it gives a kick to the hair. BUT! The conditioner... was a little disappointing )): I had to mix it with my old conditioner; it is not hydrating enough. For normal hair, I imagine it will be fine... Mine is curly and color treated.

Tigers pick Scherzer to start playoff opener
Max Scherzer
Photo: mlive.com
October 2, 2013 | AP
Max Scherzer will start Detroit's AL division series opener Friday night at Oakland, with star Justin Verlander following in Game 2.
Scherzer was baseball's lone 20-game winner this year and started for the American League in the All-Star game, but manager Jim Leyland's choice for the opener had not been clear. Verlander was the 2011 AL MVP and has been one of the top pitchers in the game over the last few seasons.
The Tigers won the AL Central for a third straight year, thanks to an exceptionally deep rotation. Anibal Sanchez, the AL's ERA leader, won't pitch until Game 3 against the Athletics. Doug Fister starts Game 4.
Leyland said relievers Bruce Rondon and Phil Coke will likely miss the series due to elbow problems.

STEVE LEWIS/Durango Herald
STEVE LEWIS/Durango Herald
Chris Aaland thought it was a breathing issue. But the family doctor didn't pull the stethoscope off his chest and prescribe an inhaler.
Instead, 48 hours after a fairly casual office visit, Aaland was on his way via helicopter to Presbyterian Heart Center in Albuquerque for life-saving heart surgery. Not to spoil the suspense, but, eight weeks later, Aaland, who has served Fort Lewis College athletics longer than anyone in the department, is doing just fine physically and mentally.
Financially, however, the Aaland family – Chris, his wife, Shelly, and their son, 5-year-old Otto – took a hit. So to help out, the organizers of the Community Cares 5K have designated the Aalands as this year's beneficiary.
Saturday's fourth annual event begins at 10 a.m. at the Durango Community Recreation Center. The fun run/walk is sponsored by the First Baptist Church of Durango and Durango Parks and Recreation.
It has been a trying stretch for the FLC sweethearts. Chris (1991 FLC grad and current assistant director of athletics for communications) and Shelly (1999 FLC grad and current head volleyball coach) were married in 2002. Their son Otto was born in 2007 and their son Gus in 2011. On Nov. 25, 2011, 5˝-month-old Gus died at a Denver hospital of a sudden illness. Otto stayed in Durango during the ordeal.
"We couldn't get back to Durango soon enough," Chris said. First, they needed to explain to him about his brother. But mostly, "He was the medicine that Shelly and I needed."
Almost exactly a year after Gus's death, Chris began waking up with his heart racing and his breathing heavy. He chalked it up to anxiety surrounding the anniversary. But the symptoms didn't go away.
The weekend of Dec. 8-9 was a particularly bad one physically. Among other duties, Chris keeps statistics at FLC sporting events, and that weekend marked FLC basketball's first homestand. (Chris, like a true sports fan, recalls dates by associating them with sporting events. His last weekend at the hospital, he pointed out later in the interview, coincided with the Denver Broncos' game vs. the Cleveland Browns.) So on Monday he visited the family doctor.
"I thought I was going to go in, and they were going to check my lungs out," he said.
"That was a real shock ... having him say I had the lung capacity of a 74-year-old, and there's a murmur in there, and it sounds like something's really wrong."
A visit the next day to a Mercy Regional Medical Center cardiologist revealed an aortic aneurysm. The malfunctioning aorta was causing fluid to pool in his lung. Thus, the breathing trouble. Aaland was flown immediately to Albuquerque.
Five days later, Monday, Dec. 17, surgeons opened his rib cage, lifted out the heart, repaired the aneurysm and put in an artificial valve.
After the three- to four-hour operation, "I felt almost instant relief," Aaland said. "I felt like I could breathe like I was a 15-year-old."
The Community Cares 5K is the brainchild of Ken Flint, former cross country coach and athletics department business manager at Fort Lewis. Flint and Aaland once shared an office at FLC and have known each other since 2000. Flint and other First Baptist Church members agreed that one of FLC athletics' biggest boosters was worthy of some love.
"He's done so much in the community," Flint said of Aaland, mentioning also his work as DJ for KDUR-FM and the local music-themed column he writes for The Durango Telegraph. "He's a community member who's going through a tough time, and we wanted to help."
The Aalands have health insurance, but not all expenses were covered – the helicopter flight, for one.
"We assumed some pretty steep out-of-network charges," Aaland said.
Aaland's undying love for FLC and sports is unimpeachable. He began as sports information director about the same time he graduated in 1991. In 2001, he left the athletics department to become director of communications and publications, and in 2006, was named director of alumni relations. Even when he left the department, Aaland kept his hand in athletics, keeping statistics at games. He returned to athletics in 2010 to take his current post.
"He's a tremendously vital asset to Fort Lewis athletics," Duane Smith, longtime fan, professor, and member of the FLC Athletic Hall of Fame, said of Aaland. "With his wife, they are an amazing team."
Shelly Aaland has long FLC tenure, too. Then Shelly Harshberger, she played volleyball and was FLC's most valuable player in 1998. She has been head volleyball coach since 2003.
The seriousness of Chris's condition really didn't hit the Aalands until the crisis was over. But if Chris had let his condition go much longer, the outcome could have easily been different.
"If you have trouble breathing for more than a short period of time, don't screw around with it," he advised. "Go see your family doctor.
"(Age) 44 is nowhere near where I want the game to be over, especially with a 5-year-old who I want to do things like climb Engineer (Mountain) with."
He's made a few lifestyle changes, such as diet, and for the foreseeable future will take the blood thinner Coumadin. But his favored pastimes of fly-fishing and bird hunting are doable, and he can still be that dad who plays basketball with his kid in the driveway.
"All the things I thought I couldn't do are back on," Aaland said. "I was starting to doubt some of those things would happen."

Crush: Hollywood's Next Generation
Taylor Lautner and Patrick Schwarzenegger Bro It Up
Taylor "Twilight" Lautner and Patrick "son of Arnold" Schwarzenegger have become friends after working together on the upcoming movie "Grown Ups 2." The duo were seen playing football with a group of pals, including Lautner's on-again, off-again girlfriend from high school, Sara Hicks, in Calabasas, California, on Sunday.
Lautner, 20, and Schwarzenegger, 19, have a lot in common. Not only are they about the same age and living very high-profile lives, but they're also both health nuts. The "Twilight" actor famously bulked up to ensure that he didn't lose his role as a werewolf in the vampire flicks, and Schwarzenegger — a model and a student in his first year at USC — declares himself a "health and fitness lover" on his Twitter profile. Perhaps his dad Arnold was a good influence in that way?
Both have also been linked to that serial heartbreaker Taylor Swift. Lautner dated the singer-songwriter briefly in 2009, while Schwarzenegger was photographed with TSwift last summer, just before she began dating his cousin, Conor Kennedy, whom she ended things with in October.
Romeo Beckham Launches Modeling Careersuzy at Crush: Hollywood's Next Generation1 yr ago
Romeo Beckham is ready for his close up!
The 10-year-old son of Victoria and David Beckham has been unveiled as the adorable new face of Burberry's spring/summer 2013 ad campaign. Outfitted in a mini trench and clutching one of the company's signature plaid umbrellas, the happy-go-lucky kid strikes an animated pose — like he's ready to go "Singin' in the Rain."
A second picture posted on the fashion company's Facebook page is a behind-the-scenes shot of the gap-toothed Romeo at the Mario Testino-helmed photo shoot. In it he's smiling widely — a trait he must have picked up from his soccer star dad, not his designer mom, who is famous for her pout.
It was only a matter of time before Romeo decided get into showbiz. Not only are his world-famous parents largely into fashion and modeling (though his dad poses mostly in his undies), but the middle Beckham son has long been hamming it up at sporting events alongside his brothers — and has a sharp sense of style for an elementary school kid.
Kendall and Kylie Jenner: Khaos in Las Vegas
Kendall Jenner, 17, and her younger sister, 15-year-old Kylie, didn't let their underage status keep them from enjoying Las Vegas over the weekend. The Kardashian siblings made a Saturday appearance at the Kardashian Khaos store at the Mirage Hotel and Casino, where fans can buy everything from a $35 T-shirt that says "Khloe's My Fave" to a $25 Christmas ornament with a picture of the entire "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" family. The girls donned skinny pants, blazers, and heels — outfits that Kourtney, Kim, and Khloe would certainly give a thumbs up! — as they met with some of their many fans.
After the meet and greet, Kendall and Kylie stopped by Siegfried & Roy's Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat, where they said hello to creatures of a different type. They got up close and personal with a parrot and a dolphin, who were not reduced to tears when they were faced with the reality stars.
Taylor Swift's 23rd Birthday Includes Fun With Harry Styles, a Golden Globe Nomination, and a Video Releasesuzy at Crush: Hollywood's Next Generation1 yr ago
Taylor Swift is having the best 23 rd birthday ever ever ever !
The country crooner woke up Thursday to learn that she has been nominated for a Golden Globe for her song "Safe & Sound," which was featured in "The Hunger Games." Celebrating her big day in England, Swift took to Twitter to share the news, calling it the "best birthday surprise ever."
Let's just say Swift is having a pretty good birthday. Visiting rural northern England with her new boyfriend, Harry Styles, this week, she seems to be having a jolly good time exploring the One Direction star's stomping grounds. On Tuesday, the duo enjoyed pub fare, grabbing a bite at the Rising Sun restaurant in Hope Valley. After their fireside meal, they happily posed for photos with fans. Pub manager Sarah Walker told People she chatted with the "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" singer, who said she "loved" being in Britain and was "excited about her birthday."

Justin Bieber, Ke$ha, and Others Rock Out at Jingle Ball in L.A.
It just wouldn't be the holidays without Justin Bieber rocking out on stage, right? The "Boyfriend" singer, as well as Ke$ha, The Wanted, and some of pop music's other top acts took the stage in Los Angeles on Monday for KIIS FM's Jingle Ball 2012 at Nokia Theatre L.A. Live. For the first time, the radio station planned a two-night event, with Bieber and company headlining the second night. Eighteen-year-old Bieber, with every hair perfectly in place as usual, began his set at about 10:15 p.m., and at one point asked how many ladies in the audience were single, E! reported. Despite that tease, the radio station behind the concert tweeted that Bieber still appeared somewhat taken. "Backstage scoop! @justinbieber is here with @selenagomez and they're looking VERY friendly! @1027KIISFM #JingleBall #awwww," the radio station's official Twitter account read.
Jennifer Lawrence Gets Physical While Filming 'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire'raechal at OMG Crush1 yr ago
"Twilight" is over, but another blockbuster book-turned-movie franchise with a butt-kicking heroine is still very much alive! Jennifer Lawrence, who plays Katniss in "The Hunger Games," spent Monday swimming and shooting a bow and arrow as she and the cast of "Catching Fire," the sequel to "The Hunger Games," filmed in Hawaii. Lawrence, as well as cute co-star Josh Hutcherson, donned wetsuits to take to the water, and she once again armed herself with her signature weapon.
While the 22-year-old actress makes it all look easy on screen, Lawrence has confessed that working out is not something that comes naturally. "I hate [other people] saying, 'I like exercising.' I want to punch people who say that in the face," Lawrence . "But it's nice being in shape for a movie, because they basically do it all for you. It's like, 'Here's your trainer. This is what you can eat.'"
Demi Lovato Gives in to Her Tattoo Addiction and Gets Inked by Kat Von D
Step away from the tattoo needle, Demi Lovato! The "X Factor" judge tweeted pics of the most recent addition to her impressive collection of ink on Sunday night, along with a photo of herself with the artist, reality star Kat Von D. "Thank you so much @thekatvond for my new ink!!" Lovato wrote of the 12 birds flying up her right forearm. "I think it's beautiful and I love it!!" The new ink sits next to a tattoo of the word "faith" that's also on her forearm (which matches the tattoo of a friend from her days in rehab last year); just below a wrist tattoo of the word "strong"; under a cross on the side of her hand ... and those are only about half of 20-year-old Lovato's permanent tattoos! Yes, people, she has a problem.
Miley Cyrus Turns 20: Her Five Wildest Momentskperri at Crush: Hollywood's Next Generation1 yr ago
"Hannah Montana" is all grown up! It's hard to believe that Miley Cyrus is only turning 20 as she's been acting much older for years. After rising to mega fame as a Disney star, Cyrus took the path that many other child actors have and rebelled against her saccharine-sweet persona. Between sexing up her image, joking that she was a pot head, getting engaged to Liam Hemsworth, and, most recently, chopping off her long beautiful locks, she always keeps us on our toes. In honor of her 20 th birthday on November 23, omg! takes a look back at her five most jaw-dropping moments when she was "just being Miley."
Exclusive Clip: See Connor Cruise in Action in 'Red Dawn'raechal at OMG Crush1 yr ago
Dude, have you seen Tom Cruise's son Connor in his first big movie role? The 17-year-old stars alongside Chris "Thor" Hemsworth and "The Hunger Games'" Josh Hutcherson in the remake of the 1984 movie "Red Dawn," which is about a group of teens attempting to save their town from North Korean soldiers. From this clip, which you'll find exclusively on omg!, we can't decide whether Connor is more of an action star in the style of his dad's "Mission Impossible" character Ethan Hunt, "Top Gun's" Maverick, or one of the many, many other indestructible heroes Tom Cruise has played. What we do know, however, is that the scene inexplicably makes us want to eat fresh…
Check out Cruise's full performance in "Red Dawn," which opens in theaters everywhere November 21.

Wow great skates from Mao and Ashley it seems. Mao's dress looks ok but not keen on the flesh top and the fact that you can see the press studs. Hopefully it will look better while she's skating. Ashley's is....not good Still can't wait to watch this though!
Amazing skate for Daisuke. It really looked like he was from another planet compared to the others out there today!
Well done!!!
Support Daisuke, join Daisuke Takahashi Road to Sochi
Congratulations to Team Japan. Can't wait to see a revitalized Mao Asada.
Mao's Swan Lake
And according to Japanese new report, Mao got 0 on one of her spins. That explains the low TES
I LOVE Mao's new LP. Beautiful, beautiful footwork all the way through. She looks so much more healthy this season and it really shows in the jumps which looked the best I've seen them since perhaps even 2008 Worlds. More mileage, that 2x-3t in place plus the spins and final jump combo sorted and this will be 130+ potential by the end of the season.....if done clean
Dai's LP! He is an incredible athlete and artist!
Overall, I think Mao's program has potential and could be one of her better ones. It has nice choreography all the way through. She just needs more mileage on it and to become more consistent.
Really enjoyed Daisuke.
Yay yay yay MAO!!!!
Are the ladies not required to do a layback spin now?
Last edited by AndyWarhol; 10-06-2012 at 03:38 PM.
The only problem that i have with Daisuke's FS is that the program's choreography doesn't really seem to start until after the quad toes are out of the way. He has a long gliding approach where he isn't really doing anything... and it's even more obvious when he does two of them right in a row.
He probably will get better as the season progresses, but other than that, nice job, Daisuke!
Mao looked gorgeous and happy. That is so great
Daisuke was amazing as well. Going to be a great year
Does this mean Mao has dumped the 3 axel for now?
And is Ashley's or Akiko's LP on youtube yet?
So glad for Ashley!!
(But here's hoping she ditches that dress!)
Charter member of the "We Always Believed in Ashley" Club and the "We Believe in Ricky" Club
Old, lonely, pathos-hungry, and extremely gullible
I'm delighted for Mao, Ashley and Jeffrey!
Mao gave a LOT of points away here (UR's 2ft 2x at the beginning and a spin that didn't even score anything) but still racked up 122+. I'd say internationally this program will be very well received. But whatever happens, I'm just really happy that she seems happy out there and most importantly, she looks healthy!!
ETA: Better quality version of Mao's new FS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfkkuI5vXyw
Love Dai as always but ITA with zebobes - where is the choreography at the beginning? Is this the actual choreography or has Morosov's editing been at work? There are moments that I just love however.
Love Dai's passion but I wish he had more choreography in the beginning and was using someone other than Morosov.
This says Plushenko did 2 quads and a 3A and 2 quads for the first time since 2005. Says he is 50/50 happy about it but it's too early.
From the Daisuke-san thread in Trash Can:
As far as complaints about Dai's choreo, IMO, trying to successfully land quads requires a lot of energy and mental focus. Preparation in going into quads is also important so its a given that choreo will not be the main focus in the sections of his program where f'ing quads for point-gathering are needed.
Thanks kittyjake for the link to Dai's fp performance at Japan Open! Wow! I have to say, Dai has certainly started out the season very strong. It's clear that he has been focusing hard on getting two quads into his fp without sacrificing any of his artistry. So what re the opening choreo? Why so nitpicky? The opening IMO is still very powerful. Good strategy on Dai's part. He is a true artist and athlete, and he's right now, IMHO, the best male skater in the world.
Okay, there are plenty of talented challengers out there too... several of them his own countrymen (Hanyu, Oda, Kosuka). Surely that fact has bolstered Dai's focus on continuing to improve. But I also think that Dai doesn't really worry about his competition, as much as he is inspired by the best that his top competitors have to offer. Dai feeds on that inspiration and he focuses always on what he can do to be better. Above all, he's gracious in either victory or defeat.

"Easy to Buy, Easy to Hang"
By Marian from Madisonville, Louisiana
The drapes I ordered are a little over 9 feet long, so I was a bit fearful about the outcome. The color is beautiful (after consulting via email with someone at Blindsgalore who gave me great advice about whether I chose the right thing to go with my wall color). They came packaged folded neatly so that all I had to do was to add my hooks to the top & let the rest fall as I hung them. They look and hang beautifully. The ordering instructions walk you through, step-by-step. I highly recommend Blindsgalore.View this product
