The holidays can be tough on teeth! Keep them healthy with
these holiday tips: <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 15.6pt; margin-bottom: .25in;">
The best way to avoid cavities while still enjoying your holiday
indulgences is to practice good oral hygiene. Here are some tips to help:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 9pt;">
Eating sugary or carbohydrate-rich foods as part of a balanced meal is
better than eating them alone. The body produces more saliva to help digest
larger meals, which washes away more food and helps neutralize harmful acids
before they can attack teeth.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 9pt;">
Foods that take a long time to chew can damage teeth. That's because
sticky foods, including nutritious choices like raisins, dates and dried fruit,
hold acid against teeth longer than do other foods. Try to limit your
consumption of these foods.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 9pt;">
After consuming high-acid food (fruits) or drinks (wine), rinse with
water before brushing your teeth to prevent tooth erosion from the acids.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 9pt;">
Keep a toothbrush and travel-size toothpaste handy (for example, in your
pocket or purse or store these in the glove compartment of your car) so that
you can brush right after eating at holiday parties. An added benefit is that
you are less likely to eat after you brush your teeth, so you may end up eating
less at parties.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 9pt;">
If you're unable to brush your teeth after eating, rinsing your mouth
thoroughly with water or chewing sugar-free gum will help to wash away food
particles, produce more saliva and neutralize acids in your mouth<o:p></o:p></div>

Thanksgiving is a wonderful holiday spent with family and
friends and reminds us to be thankful for all we have. On the opposite end,
Thanksgiving can present a challenge if you are trying to stick to a healthy
diet. Want to have a healthier Thanksgiving this year? Take a look at some food
tips we found at <a href="http://health.howstuffworks.com/wellness/food-nutrition/healthy-eating/thanksgiving-tips.htm">http://health.howstuffworks.com/wellness/food-nutrition/healthy-eating/thanksgiving-tips.htm</a>.

Fish-Friendly: By itself, fish is lower in calories than chicken or ham,
and certain types of fish are rich in heart-healthy fats. Just remember to
avoid the creamy sauces!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">2. Pass
Up Ham: Ham is one of the fattiest meats, with 25% of your recommended
amount of artery-clogging saturated fat in just one serving.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">3. Dark
Meat is OK: Dark meat has slightly more calories than white meat, but it
also has more vitamins and minerals. Cut calories by not eating the skin.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">4. Skip
the Skin: Whether you eat white or dark meat, be sure to go skinless. Just
one ounce of skin contains 80 calories and 2 grams of fat!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">5. Try a
Nontraditional Pick: Pork roast often includes both the fatty and lean
parts of the meat, but it's made with herbs and spices (not brown sugar and
butter) and has little added fat.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">6.
Refrain from Red Meat: Eeek! Red meat is one of the fattiest proteins. Be
sure to trim it before you dig in, and serve yourself portions that are
approximately the size of your palm.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">7.
Sneaky Calorie Cutter: Swap dark meat for light meat and you save 30
calories.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">8. Go
Easy on Gravy: Roasted turkey is a smart bet for your holiday dinner. Just
don't get crazy with the gravy – it’ll cost you about 20 calories per ounce.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">9. Forgo
Fried: Loading fried chicken on your plate won't give you much room for
sides. One serving has close to 500 calories and half your daily intake of
saturated fat.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">SIDE DISHES<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">

Sinful Sides: With a deadly combo of cheese, sour cream, and butter, au
gratin potatoes are a dish best eaten in moderation. Using low-fat cheese and
cream helps, too.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">11.
Bypass Baked Beans: Beans are an amazing source of fiber and iron.
Unfortunately, this casserole is full of brown sugar, molasses, and honey.
Leave the bacon off your plate and save 42 calories.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">12.
Ignore Biscuits: Homemade biscuits often contain whole milk and butter, which
give them their fluffy texture. They're dense in calories, so you're better off
with cornbread.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">13.
Steamed = Slim: Steamed broccoli is a slim side. Just don't ruin it by
slathering it with fat-filled cheese sauce.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">14. Be
Choosy with Coleslaw: This side dish varies from recipe to recipe. If you
see it dripping with mayo, pass it up. Made with vinegar and herbs, it's a
diet-friendly option.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">15. Go
Butter-Free: Cornbread, a true Thanksgiving staple, is hard to avoid. Eat
it plain -- without the pat of butter -- and cut 30 calories.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">16.
Fresh is Best: The canned variety of cranberry sauce can be packed with
sugars and additives, but homemade versions made with fresh cranberries can be
a healthy topping. Either way, it won't wreck your diet.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">17. Slim
Down Creamed Spinach: By itself, spinach is one of the most nutritious
veggies. Add in butter and cream, and you do more diet damage. If you're
looking for a low-cal swap, try using reduced-fat cream cheese instead of
whipping cream.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">18.
Banish the Bread Basket: Why waste the extra calories? Have one more
spoonful of your holiday favorite instead of a plain dinner roll.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">19. Go
Green! Without the cream, butter, and cheese in green bean casserole,
these veggies are an excellent choice. Add some flavor with garlic, lemon
juice, or a sprinkle of Parmesan.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">20.
High-Cal Casserole Alert: The base of this casserole contains
vitamin-packed green beans but smothers them with cheese, cream, and butter.
Cut 50 calories by leaving off the fried onion topping.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">21. Be
Selective with Salads: Though it's not crazy in calories, congealed
salad, a Jell-O-based dish, can contain added sugars and creams. Skip it and
save room for dessert!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">22. Take
Control of Mac and Cheese: It's hard to avoid this gooey dish, but with
several types of cheese, milk, and breadcrumbs, it's a complete diet fail. If
you indulge, just take a tiny spoonful.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 6.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">23.
Boost Flavor Naturally: Mashed potatoes vary greatly from recipe to
recipe. Cut down on calories by adding low-fat milk, herbs, and garlic, and
cutting down on butter and cream.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Even though it’s Texas, the autumn season is right around
the corner! The cooler air will begin to fill the air and we will put away our
bathing suits (maybe, after all it is still Texas!). We have compiled a list of
the top 10 fall beauty tips for you so that you are ready for the new season. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
</div>
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Don’t over tweeze your brows. Full
brows are more flattering.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Give your skin a spa treatment
with something like the <a href="http://www.sephora.com/mia2-sonic-cleansing-brush-with-fresh-P381801?skuId=1557198" target="_blank">Clarisonic Skin Cleansing System.</a></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Use darker toned nail colors</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Get smooth hair safely with
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod3120805" target="_blank">Organix Brazilian Keratin Therapy 30 Day Smoothing Treatment</a></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Switch to mineral makeup</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Try a new haircut like the short
bob</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Upgrade your hairbrush</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Find a mascara that gives you big,
long lashes</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Change up your hair color- red is
popular this fall</span></li>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">It’s that time again to prepare your children for
back-to-school. Many of us get caught up in making sure they have the supplies
they need, get new clothes, etc and forget about a few important things they
also need before going back to school. You can make sure they go back happy and
healthy by following these few steps:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Make sure shots are current-Schools will not enroll students
without an immunization record</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Check their vision- According to Pamela F. Gallin, MD,
director of pediatric ophthalmology at Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital of
New York Presbyterian Hospital in New York City, as many as one in 20
children can’t see out of one of their eyes.
Many parents find it difficult to determine if their children need
glasses, so it’s best to have their vision checked regularly.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Alert your child, school nurse, teachers, and other
individuals your child interacts with about any health issues, allergies or
physical restrictions they may have.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Provide the school with any medications your child needs. </span></li>

Summer has just flown by and back to school will be here sooner than you think. It’s difficult to transition children into back-to-school mode, but by taking a few steps a little early, your child(ren) will be ready to get back into school come August.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Step 1: Get back into your old school routine- Utilize the last few weeks of summer to re-establish schedules, morning routines, activities, etc.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Step 2: For smaller children, encourage independence- Once they arrive in the classroom, children will need to do several things for themselves. Begin speaking to your child about responsibilities and expectations. You can also assign them tasks or chores to get them transitioned.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Step 3: Set-up a schedule- Similar to step one, set a wake-up time, breakfast time, homework time, and bed time and stick to it a few weeks before school starts. Homework time before school starts can be reading time or something of that nature.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Step 4: Get the rest of the family involved- Everyone is probably still in summer mode, but by getting the whole family in back-to-school mode will help provide a smoother transition for everyone. </div>
