QUOTE FOR WEDNESDAY:
“It’s a slippery slope, my friends. In my book, the menu for “Black Friday” does not look like the one on Thanksgiving Thursday (only made in the microwave instead). Let other people eat the leftover mashed potatoes and gravy, the stuffing and the candied sweet potatoes, while you try my “1,500-Calorie Day-After-Thanksgiving Detox Plan,” which I will share, happily, with you at Eating Well blog.”

QUOTE FOR TUESDAY:
“Nutrition experts advise working out on the days before and after Thanksgiving, and, if possible, on the holiday itself. Taking a walk before or after dinner can help shed pounds. One can play a little touch football before sitting down to watch the game.”

QUOTE FOR THE WEEKEND:
“Idiopathic seizures are those whose cause is unknown. Unfortunately, about 6 out of 10 seizures are idiopathic. In the case of focal seizures, we presume that there is an irritation to or scar on some part of the brain, but the scar is invisible to MRI. With generalized seizures, the genetic or metabolic abnormality is unidentified.”
Epilepsy Foundation (epilepsy.com)
QUOTE FOR FRIDAY:
“Epilepsy is not just one condition, but a group of many different ‘epilepsies’ with one thing in common: a tendency to have seizures that start in the brain. Epilepsy is usually only diagnosed after a person has had more than one seizure. Not all seizures are due to epilepsy (that is why we have diagnostic testing done in determining what caused the seizure so the MD can make the right treatment for that person).”
