Sprinkle a pinch of shredded parmesan/asiago/reggiano - whatever you like best - ontop of eggs at the last minute they are frying up so it melts. Then sprinkle pepper and a little of the Trader Joe's Himalayan salt with truffle on top of eggs & avocado. You can also get the truffle olive oil and fry your egg in a little of that instead of using the salt. Seriously though, a little truffle action first thing in the morning is just so decadent and has got me completely addicted! Its the first breakfast thing I have ever found that I want to eat every day and it keeps me full soon long. In other news....do the botox. Just like someone else said, if you don't like it, you don't have to do it again. I am terrified of needles (like fainted every time I had blood drawn when I was pregnant) and the pain factor is zero. You can't feel it at all. I don't know how, but seriously.

Also I have stopped eating meat and gained weight and it's because I'm eating more dairy and more carbs/grains. I feel better when I have more protein in my diet so I've been upping my egg and nut intake - everyone has to do what's right for them so you may just need a little more protein (even Meat) in your diet ! I rotate avocado toast and peanut butter honey toast for breakfast. It's easy and not too much first thing in the morning!

They all get it done from a dermatologist we're friends with and she has found nothing wrong with it, even in younger women. Plus it can last from a year to 18 months for someone in their 30s. I found some frames at Target recently that are specifically made for kids artwork and you can open them and change the art out easily. I feel the same way about my kids lately. It's going by too fast.

I was a vegan/vegetarian for many years before incorporating fish into my diet for the last 10 years or so. Within the last year, I started to eat other proteins, just feeling like my body needed it. I honestly feel like it's been better for my body shape/size. I do need to exercise more, but I feel like if I did that more consistently; things would be better. Breakfast lately for me.....cottage cheese and fruit is hitting the spot. One more - Gwen & Blake; I'm so weirded out by this. I love them both, but love me some Miranda!

If you do get it go to a person who has years of experience and only a Dermatologist or Plastic Surgeon.<br /><br />I also started using Retin-A 2 years ago and I think it's helping my skin so much.

Maybe in the kitchen? You could get a bulletin board and tack them up for a while before rotating them out (into the circular file). Or maybe a small gallery wall with those acrylic frames you can easily switch the art in and out of (http://www.michaels.com/studio-decor-acrylic-box-frame/M10118604.html?dwvar_M10118604_color=Clear). It'll make him feel special and perhaps less concerned with where the rest of the art goes.<br /><br />Just eat what you want for breakfast. Only Americans and Europeans have "breakfast food". Have a sandwich, or a salad or hummus and chips. Lately I've really been into dairy free green smoothies.

I'm 43 and have done it handful of times, makes me look more awake when I do. Luckily I don't have a lot of wrinkles yet but the fine ones around my eyes bother me.<br />I think Gwen and Blake make a bit of an odd couple but good for them.<br />I have just got on the 'not washing hair every day' bandwagon and actually LOVE it. My stylist goes 2-3 days without washing and her hair always looks great so she convinced me to try it. Great dry shampoo spray is key I've found out, love the one she sells. Now I go 1-2 days and actually like my hair better when it's a bit 'dirty'. Plus I can get ready SO much faster now, win win! :)<br />Enjoy your super adorable kids, it does go by SO fast. Mine boy then girl too, are 10 and nearly 14 now, yikes!!! My son is taller than my husband now, crazy.

But more and more lawsuits are being filed daily. Some people don't experience a negative reaction until after they've gotten it many times. It is a neurotoxin that is causing more and more health issues in patients every day. Plus so many people who've gotten it for years start to look plastic and lumpy (Hollywood actresses). Are you really so insecure that you can't deal with aging gracefully!? You are beautiful. At least do your homework before you jump on that bandwagon. There are so many other fantastic options available including Frownies, Furlesse, and as someone else mentioned Rodan & Fields. Retin-A is also tremendous. My mom started using it in her 40s and at 70 has the skin of a 50 year old - not exaggerating.
