Positive Self-Esteem for Binge Eaters

Tuesday, July 31st, 2007

By Kristin Gerstley When you feel at your lowest point, food becomes your best friend. Food makes you feel better from the hurtful comment that you heard a stranger say about your weight. Food comforts you when no one else can. Food numbs any pain that you dont want to feel. But, food is actually the enemy in your life. In this case, food is the enemy because it is what you binge on. Food is what creates sadness within you. Food is what makes you unhealthy. Ultimately, food is what keeps lowering your self-esteem. You want to have a high self-esteem. You want to be one of those people that smiles throughout the day from a true happiness found within. But you arent right now. You are under the bounds of food and it isnt until you start improving your self-esteem that you will get out of this cycle. This endless cycle that has become your life needs to come to a screeching halt right away. How do you expect for your self-esteem to rise when you arent doing anything to help it? All you are doing is feeding your mouth and that isnt going to make you feel better about yourself. It is just going to continue refueling the cycle that you live in every day. You want to stop binging, but your self-esteem is shot so you eat more. Many people are stuck in this trap. Here are some things that you can put into practice daily to help improve your self-esteem so that you can start living. Read a personal development book. There are many good ones out there. Go to your favorite bookstore and immerse yourself in the self-help section. Spend hours there reading whatever books catch your eye. If the books continue to appeal to you and your situation, buy the book and start reading a little every day. Another thing that you can do is to not think any bad thoughts about yourself. This, of course, is not as easy said than done, but you have to start from somewhere. If you find yourself thinking about how fat you are, or how miserable your life is, find something that you like, or better love, about yourself and think about that. Turn your negative thoughts into positive ones. When you start seeing the good in you, the bad will start to fade away. If you are a person that likes reading celebrity gossip magazines, but find that you dont feel good about yourself after you finish, stop reading for a short time. If you begin to wish that you were skinnier or looked like so-and-so, you are damaging your self-esteem. Take out whatever pictures make you feel inferior and rip them to shreds! You do not have to look like you walked out of Hollywood. In fact, why would you want to? You are unique in your own way. When you learn to be happy in your own skin, you will learn how to accept yourself, even though you are not at the ideal weight that you wish to be. Accept your flaws and focus on the good things about yourself. Finally, make a list of all of your accomplishments, big or small. When you remember the times where you accomplished what you thought was impossible, you will develop a new outlook on yourself. You will see yourself in a new way and start to think of yourself as a braver person. When you think of all that you have accomplished, your self-esteem will strengthen because you arent dwelling on the negative that brings it down. It is only when your self-esteem improves that you will start to see yourself in a new light. This light will shed you from the dark world of binge eating.

Scholarships, Bursaries, and Grants: How to Pay for School

Monday, July 30th, 2007

By Morgan James You want to go to university. You want to get a fantastic, well-paying job. In the meantime, however, you are stuck with a bill for thousands of dollars. Where are you going to get the money? Get a Scholarship You can get scholarships for many different things. Some scholarships are available through academic achievement. Other scholarships are available for sports. Some schools offer you scholarships simply for attending. Sometimes you have to search for scholarships. Talk to your guidance counselor, or your schools department of awards and financial aid for information on how to find and apply for scholarships. (You can also check out www.theguideto-studentloans.com for more information). Get a Bursary Bursaries are like scholarships, but they often require you to prove that you need financial aid. Sometimes it is simple to prove financial aid (by bringing in proof that your income doesnt meet your needs to pay tuition and living expenses). Other times you have to go through a more strenuous application process where you have to have your parents financial information as well. Unlike scholarships, which are sometimes offered without you even applying, you typically have to apply for any bursary that you want. You can find bursaries online at scholarship sites, or you can find them through your high school or college. Get a Grant Grants are typically given to upper year students or students who are writing a thesis or dissertation. Grants are not like scholarships. For scholarships, you send in your resume or curriculum vitae and you hope that an organization will give you money based on your previous success record. For grants, you have to send in your resume and CV as well, but you also have to write a proposal. In your proposal, you explain what work you intend to do. You might then get a grant based on your proposal. Grant-writing tends to be much more involved than scholarship applications. You can get grants from the government, from your school, and from third party organizations. Get a Fellowship Upper year students and graduate students can also often apply for a fellowship. A fellowship means that you will be filling a position at the school. This typically means that you deliver a lecture or two, or sometimes teach a course. Each fellowship position is different. Fellowships are competitive, but worth the application. They will in turn look good on your curriculum vitae. Get a Job If applying for grants, scholarships, and bursaries is not your cup of tea, consider going to school part time and working part time. You might also be able to fit a small part time job in on top of your full-time coursework. You can often get a job on campus that will help you to better balance your work and school. Can you work in your department? Not only can you work on campus, you could choose to work at a job that supports your studies. If you are a great student, consider tutoring. If you are studying theatre, get a job at the box office. If you are in sciences, see if there are any laboratory positions available. You can work as a research assistant in almost any department at a university. Will they pay you to co-ordinate student volunteer programs or to run the childcare center? Finding employment during college can be easy and fun. Get a Loan Anyone can successfully obtain a student loan. You just want to make sure that you get the loan thats right for you. You want the best rates, the best package, and the best deal. To sort yourself through the maze of student loans (graduate student loans, parent loans for students, student loan consolidation, international student loans and much more) visit The Guide to Student Loans (link below). With all of the options on how you can pay for your post-secondary education, its no wonder that more people are going to college and university now. It might seem daunting at first, but narrow your options and choices to find out the best way to pay for your university funding, and you will be one step closer to your degree!

Fishing Nasty Northern Pike

Tuesday, July 17th, 2007

By Jack Phillips Finding and catching small northern pike is relatively easy. They spend most of their time in shallow, weedy areas from 2 to 15 feet deep. But catching those nasty monster northern pike is not as simple. They are found among the smaller pike during the spring, but as it warms up in the summer they move into deeper water, 15 to 30 feet or more. Fishing for these big fish becomes more difficult because they are more scattered. Summer angling for northern pike is also difficult if the water becomes too warm. If pike cannot find cooler water they do not eat as frequently or eat very little. Northern pike are best fished during the daylight hours. They are rarely caught while fishing later at night but it does happen. The mature northern pike generally stay in one area, hiding in weedy cover waiting for that bait fish or hopefully your enticing lure or bait. Typically northern pike lay motionless waiting in ambush in the weeds or near submerged cover like logs or rocks. Then they like to make short vicious lunges at passing baite fish and again your enticing offering. They can live in almost any freshwater environment. Inlets and bays on the larger lakes or even the Great Lakes in Canada and the US harbor large numbers of large northern pike. These bays have slightly warmer water and more food than the open water. Smaller northern lakes of the Canadian Shield can grow trophy northern pike, usually because they do not have the heavy fishing pressure of the southern lakes, they survive longer and grow to trophy size. Weedy bays and marshes of most lakes all hold northerns, manmade reservoirs hold large northern pike with all that submerged cover created is perfect environment for these nasty boys. Bobber fishing for northern pike is a great, fun way to fish. Northerns cannot resist a big minnow dangling from a bobber. They may sit and just stare, but eventually that nasty pike will strike out and attack. Just cast that bobber and bait close to a likely weed-line, drop off, sunken island or point, then just sit back, relax and enjoy. A bobber rig is easily made, use a 12 inch steel leader and a #1 hook. Attach a 1 1/2 or 2 inch bobber to the line. Add sinkers or split shot to balance. Hook a large minnow in the upper lip or just behind the dorsal fin. Regardless of the type of minnows you use try to use something at least 6 inches long. The strike of a northern pike is usually violent. The fish may yank the bobber under on one strike. Release the line after the strike. A pike often grabs the bait in the middle or crosswise and then run with it. Then it will stop to swallow the bait, reel in any slack line then make your snap and set the hook. The fight of a big northern pike will test your tackle and of course your skill. Often they will put up very little fight until they are close to the boat or shore. Then without warning that northern will make a few long runs or even clear the surface in a leap to throw that hook, so get out there and have fun and enjoy yourself. After northerns have left the shallows in summer trolling fast is a great way to entice these nasty predators to strike. Troll just off the weed beds, in about 20 feet of water, with large lipped deep diving plugs that will track straight at higher speeds. Most anglers use a stiff rods and level wind reels with 20 to 30 pound test line. With that snake-like body, huge head and razor-sharp teeth, the northern pike has a fearsome appearance and a nasty reputation to match. It is not uncommon for a pike to strike a large bass, perch or walleye struggling on the end of your line. In some cases they will just not let go even when up to the boat. In most waters, the northern pike is top dog. They will also feed on muskrats, mice, turtles, salamanders, small ducks and other birds, although they eat mostly fish. Often they will take on other fish half their size. When northern pike are prowling the shallows, casting allows you to fish weeds or snag infested areas you could not otherwise fish. Lures; with lively action work best. Metal spoons that wobble entice the strike. Try using bright colors red yellow and silver work fine. Just vary your speed and jerk the bait now and then to attract the fish, again just go fishing and enjoy! Jack Phillips has been an avid Canadian angler for over 50 years. Fishing Canada provides solid advice for walleye, bass, pike, muskie, a variety of trout, arctic char bass and more. Idea’s on when and where to go on your next trip to Canada. Ice fishing tips. Delicious fish recipes also!
