Uh Huh, Honey! Can A Spoonful Of Honey Really Melt Away The Pounds?

Honey. It sure is yummy. But what if we told you, that a spoonful of it, here and there throughout the course of the day could help you drop pounds. Would you believe us?

Let's put it this way....Enjoying some honey couldn't hurt, anyway.

People have been using honey for a lot of reasons since ancient times.  Greeks back then, believed that honey could extend one's life. And in pre-ancient days, Egyptians use the sweet syrup topically to heal wounds.

Modern science also shows us that honey also possesses  antiseptic and antibacterial properties.
.
But can honey melt away fat?

Nutritionist Mike McInnes claims that by eating a spoonful of  honey before bed each night, you can drop up to three pounds a week.

That's pretty amazing!

"The Honey Diet", a new book authored by McInnes, also suggests throughout the day to substitute the natural sweetener for any other sugars consumed.
.
That means cooking with it, sweetening your coffee with it, and enjoying only treats made with it.

You have to give up potatoes on the Honey Diet, along with eliminating refined carbs, and boosting your intake of proteins + veggies + fruits.

Sounds pretty easy. The book is now available at amazon.

Hey...you've got nothing to lose but 3 lbs. a week if this nutritionist is right. Plus---it tastes great!

Uh-huh, honey...as Kim + Kanye would say....

Can A Girl's Tummy Be Too Toned A La Kelly Bensimon?

We are on the fence about this one.

Working out is key. That is the only way to maintain a healthy, attractive physique. But is there a limit?

In other words, can a girl's tummy be TOO toned, a la Kelly Bensimon, the former NY housewives reality star?!

We're not sure that 45-year-old Kelly's abs look that appealing. We think her legs + arms are buff, but her mid-section appears very tight + thick. Some think Kelly's abs are TOO shredded.

On the other hand, this girl is actually 45-years-old. So she's in superb physical shape.

And it takes tons of discipline + hard work to achieve such a rock-hard body.

We think she would look softer + a bit more feminine with a rounder tummy. But if a super washboard were her goal, then she has surely hit her mark.

If you're looking to tone up your abs, we found a great, fun work-out on YouTube. Check out Ab Blaster Workout: Obliques - GetFitWithLeyla.

And DON'T worry. These exercises are pretty tame next to what Kelly Bensimon must be doing.

Forget Plastic Surgery: So Many Gorgeous, Beauty Options Available

Choice.

We all love being able to choose, and when it comes to staying pretty, times have changed in a great way. Plastic surgery is still going to be around, but maintenance is the key.

There are so many beauty options today. These procedures are non-invasive, quick to show natural-looking results, and can actually slow-www down the aging process. Plus, there isn't much downtime if any. Maintenance is all about a gentler approach.

Younger-looking skin. Who wouldn't want that? A facelift will tighten, but it can also look artificial or too pulled back, and so on. An expert in aesthetic skin care can fix those areas that a surgical facelift cannot.

If you have trouble spots, and we all get them sooner or later, injectables like Botox and fillers can come to the rescue. As long as these injectables are done conservatively and artistically, your face will appear younger, more rested and more radiant.

Maybe too much sun exposure has left you with a bunch of creases. Don't worry, Botox is like a beauty iron, so that wrinkles and frown lines around the eyes and forehead are temporarily smoothed away for 3-4 months.

Possibly a little sagging and/or lost volume are bothering you. You don't have to submit to the scalpel. More and more fillers are being introduced, so the beauty science can restore the buoyancy or fullness to the face

Fillers like Juvederm, Restylane and Radiesse, are just three of the most popular volumizers that can go deep to plump up the face, or just neatly fill in the nasolabial folds or marionette lines.

Another super option involves chemical solutions applied to the skin, which cause the outer layer to peel away. Chemical Peels Newport Beach are excellent treatments that can achieve a healthier, youthful, glowing complexion. Peels can reduce brown pigmentation, even up skin tone, unclog pores and nicely improve skin clarity.

There are also a variety of laser procedures that can perfect the texture of your skin by deeply penetrating the skin's layers to remove sun-damaged skin. Fractional lasers, for instance, can amazingly reduce chicken pox scars and minimize deep acne scars.

So before you sign on the dotted line for costly plastic surgery, do your homework, and you will discover that non-invasive beauty options do exist.

Maintenance is the modern way to remain rejuvenated.

Want A VS Angel Body Like Adriana Lima? Then Get A Jump Rope!

We always thought that sexy bodies like VS angel Adriana Lima's was 99% pure genetics + good luck.'

But we must admit---that girl works her behind off in a grueling fast-moving session.

So if you want a VS angel body, then get a jump rope, NOW!

Of course, it helps if you have a super trainer by your side. In Adriana's case it is Michael Olajide, Jr. She's worked with him for 6 years now, and it REALLY shows.

"With two little girls, it can be tough to find time to go to the gym," Adriana
 told Self magazine. "Jumping rope is something I can easily do at home -- I try and squeeze it in during my daughters' naptime!"

Good for her. Jumping rope isn't just for kids. It's actually an excellent cardio movement for adults, for 3 reasons:

1. A super fat burner
2. Firms your legs nicely
3. An overall body exercise

We also love jumping rope because it's not that hard to do. You don't need much equipment. You can also do the exercise privately. Or you can jump rope with the family. Everyone can have fun and participate. You can jump rope indoors and outdoors.

Here's Adriana's work-out. And yeah....she REALLY is doing all the hard work!

Check her out here!

Don't forget---the 2013 Victoria Secret's Fashion Show will be on CBS, next Tuesday, 10PM.

Kate Middleton Wows In $35 Sparkly Crystal Bead Necklace At Mandela Premiere

You've got to hand it to Kate Middleton. She's a smart, savvy, modern-day princess, or (duchess, to be exact).

We caught a quick glimpse of her lovely ensemble at the UK red carpet movie premiere of Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom last evening.

Kate + William were unaware that the beloved + iconic leader had just passed away.

Kate looked royally great in a long-sleeved ivory Roland Mouret gown. But what truly caught our eye, was her FAB- less than $36 necklace from Zara. It sells for $35.90, to be exact.

We went to the Zara website, found the striking collar necklace, and tried to add one to our shopping bag. Unfortunately, we believe the Kate necklace is already SOLD OUT!

Maybe you could try later. If Zara is smart, the company will quickly re-stock for the holiday season.


Let's face it---this cheap necklace looks like it came from the Queen's private collection.

Makes for a wonderful stocking stuffer! If you can find one.
