Big Game Activities to Burn off Foods You Just Ate

Stacy — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 13:22:13 +0000

The “Big Game” has become much more than a football game: It’s the second biggest day for food consumption in the United States after Thanksgiving. So, to choose the most splurgeworthy foods, here are the exercise equivalents* for some of your favorite football snacks from Charles Platkin, PhD, MPH, assistant professor at CUNY School of Public Health at Hunter College and editor of DietDetective.com.

THREE FRIED MAC AND CHEESE BALLS = RUNNING 249 FOOTBALL FIELDS

At more than 500 calories per ball, made with peanut oil, egg, cheese, butter, flour, macaroni, milk and more, what do you expect?

Fit Tip: Try baking, adding veggies and using whole-wheat pasta and low-fat cheese.

THREE PIGS IN BLANKETS = PLAYING CATCH WITH A FOOTBALL FOR 68 MINUTES (NONSTOP)

Hot dogs wrapped in a crescent or biscuit dough adds up: Each one you pop in your mouth is 66 calories.

Fit Tip: Low calorie franks (fat free), with low-fat crescent dough.

THREE SLICES OF PIZZA HUT MEAT LOVER’S PIZZA = 1,229 MINUTES OF TEBOWING

That’s more than 20 hours of continuous praying to burn off those calories. Each slice is loaded with high-calorie meats, including pepperoni, ham, beef, bacon and sausage.

Fit Tip: Try cheeseless pizza with plenty of veggies — broccoli, spinach, tomatoes, zucchini, mushrooms or even artichoke hearts — on top. Also, avoid personal pan and stuffed-crust pizzas: The thick, oily crust equals added fat and calories.

SIX BOTTLES OF BUDWEISER BEER = DOING “THE WAVE” 4,280 TIMES

Beer and football just go together, but keep in mind, each beer is 145 calories.

Fit Tip: Planning on having a few bottles? Try Beck’s Premier Light at only 64 calories per 12-ounce bottle, or MGD Light, 64 calories, Michelob Ultra or Natural Light at 95, or you can go very low with Budweiser Select for 55. Best bet is to sample a few light beers before the game to see which ones you prefer.

BLIMPE’S SUPER STACKED BLIMPIE BEST = 313 MINUTES OF CHANTING, POINTING AND WAVING A FOAM-HAND NUMBER ONE

This calorically laden sub includes slow-cured ham, salami, cappacola, prosciuttini and provolone.

Fit Tip: Go for low-fat cheese and skip the mayo. If you’re buying at Blimpe try the Deli Trio Sub, a low-cal combination of ham, oven-roasted turkey and roast beef at 330 calories for a 6-inch sub.

ONE DEVILED EGG = 12 MINUTES OF CHEERLEADING

Ever try doing one of those cheerleading routines? I didn’t think so. Deviled eggs are made with mayo, and in case you weren’t sure, mayo is very high in calories.

Fit Tip: Use low-fat mayo, or how about just hard-boiled eggs with hot sauce?

ONE SLICE OF HOOSIER SUGAR CREAM PIE = 58 MINUTES OF CLIMBING THE STADIUM STAIRS

It’s been said that this is the unofficial state pie of Indianapolis (where the Super Bowl is being held this year). The name says it all. “Sugar cream pie” is made with sugar, flour, whipping cream, milk and butter in a pie shell.

Fit Tip: Go to eatingwell.com or cookinglight.com and put healthy cream pie in the search box.

ONE KFC EXTRA CRISPY CHICKEN BREAST AND ONE EXTRA CRISPY DRUMSTICK = 203 TOUCHDOWN DANCES IN THE END ZONE

That’s a lot of dancing!! Deep-fried chicken is very high in calories, especially the extra crispy kind.

Fit Tip: Bake skinless chicken and use whole-grain bread crumbs.

APPLEBEE’S CHILI CHEESE NACHOS = 159 MINUTES OF PLAYING PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL

That’s nonstop time. Just like beer, nachos and the Big Game go hand-in-hand.

Fit Tip: Make your own nachos with low-fat cheese and black beans. Use salsa and make your own whole-wheat pita chips and you’ll be even better off.

TEN LAY’S CLASSIC POTATO CHIPS WITH KRAFT FRENCH ONION DIP = 134 MINUTES DANCING TO MADONNA DURING THE HALFTIME SHOW

Dancing is actually great exercise (if you don’t get nauseous from all the food you’ve eaten already). Each chip is 10.5 calories, and every dip of dip is 60 calories.

Fit Tip: Try Popchips, and make your dip with low-fat mayo or non-fat yogurt.

FIVE TOSTITOS RESTAURANT-STYLE TORTILLA CHIPS WITH 7-LAYER DIP = 110 MINUTES CLEANING THE STADIUM AFTER THE GAME

Each chip has 20 calories (yes 20!!) and 1 tablespoon of the seven-layer dip is approximately 70 calories.

Fit Tip: The answer is salsa — it’s very low in calories. And pick baked, low-calorie chips at about 120 calories per ounce. If you’re eating the chips, have one at a time, and don’t put out huge bowls of them. Make sure you have to get up each time you want more than six chips.

ONE PIZZA HUT CRISPY BONE-IN WING BUFFALO BURNIN HOT WITH BLUE CHEESE DRESSING = FACE PAINTING 8 WILD FANS

You ever see some of the fans who get their faces painted? Traditional wings are deep fried, not to mention the super high-calorie ranch or blue cheese dressing.

Fit Tip: You can easily make the wings yourself. Remove the skin (it saves lots of calories), soak them in hot sauce or roll them in egg whites, dip them in bread crumbs and bake them in the oven. Skip the blue cheese dressing, which has about 305 calories for 4 tablespoons. Dip them in hot sauce instead.

ONE BACON CHEDDAR JALAPENO POPPER = 60 MINUTES PERFORMING IN A MARCHING BAND

Those poppers are made with cream cheese, bacon and Cheddar cheese — each one will cost you a bit of marching.

Fit Tip: Use turkey bacon, low-fat cream cheese and Cheddar cheese. Bake don’t fry.

JUST ONE PEANUT = COACHING FOOTBALL FOR A LITTLE OVER A MINUTE

One peanut has about 5.5 calories. A handful, or about one ounce (30 peanuts), is 166 calories.

Fit Tip: Nuts are healthy, but they’re very high in calories. Don’t keep a huge bowl in front of you. And try to eat one at a time; don’t shove a handful in your mouth all at once.

Prepping for Plastic Surgery

Stacy — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 12:38:56 +0000

You’ve made the decision to join the club of over 13 million Americans who opted for plastic surgery last year. You’ve done your research, selected a doctor and scheduled your surgery. Aside from choosing an excellent surgeon, there are a number of things you can do in the days and weeks leading up to your surgery that can help improve your recovery time, comfort during recovery and overall results.

Double-board certified plastic surgeon and founder of The Facial Institute in Beverly Hills, Dr. David M. Alessi, says there is a lot that patients can do themselves to ensure that their surgery and recover go as smoothly as possible. In addition to following your own doctor’s protocol, Dr. Alessi offers the following tips to patients who are about to go under the knife:

· Purchase homeopathic medicines like Bromelain and Arnica Gel, which will help decrease bruising and swelling after surgery.

· Exercise regularly and stick to a low-fat, high nutrient diet – it’s important to be in the best health possible before going under the knife. The healthier you are the less likely it is for complications to arise.

· Stop taking all aspirin products two weeks before surgery. Aspirin often contain products that inhibit blood clotting, which can cause difficulty during and after surgery.

· If you smoke, stop smoking at least two weeks before surgery. Smoking significantly reduces circulation and your body’s ability to carry oxygen to your tissues, which is necessary for proper healing.

Take Your Love Life to Sweet New Heights

Stacy — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 12:23:11 +0000

Thanks to the proliferation of outrageously popular TV food shows, Americans have grown to appreciate the aesthetics of a meal almost as much as its flavor. We’ve discovered our chefs are artists as well as cooks and bakers, and their colorful salads and abstract chocolate sculptures are works of art as well as good things to eat.

But there is yet another dimension to food to be explored, says Italian-born Chef Tiberio Simone, a James Beard Award winner and author of a provocative new coffee table book, La Figa: Visions of Food and Form

La Figa: Visions of Food and Form (www.LaFigaProject.com). Shot by Matt Freedman, it features full-color, artistically rendered portraits of the naked human body decorated with fresh ingredients.

Incorporate food in your love life, he says, and you’ll discover the sublime.

• Choose fresh, natural, organic foods. Sexy food still has the taste nature gave it, and there’s no better choice than organic food because it’s grown with love. A farmer’s market is a great place to shop because you can touch and smell the produce.

• Watch out for food allergies – even if you don’t plan to eat the food. If you’re planning a sensual meal for your lover as a surprise, be aware of any food allergies or sensitivities he or she may have. Also, foods can cause irritation, burning or rashes when placed on the skin, if a person has a sensitivity. This can be especially true for certain delicate body parts.

• Bring your lover on your food-shopping excursion. View it as a bit of sensual foreplay. You can have a lot of fun caressing and gently squeezing the foods, and inhaling their aromas. The conversation should be entertaining, too.

• Taste the sensuality of the food while you and your partner eat. This sounds obvious, but it’s not. Seduce your senses by breathing in the aroma of the dish. Close your eyes and inhale slowly so you can analyze and take in the ingredients. Take a small bite, roll the food around your tongue and in your mouth and make small sounds of pleasure. You might feel ridiculous, but it’s fun, especially on a romantic date.

“Food and touch are truly the basic ingredients of life. If done properly, they will not only provide pleasure, but also engage and delight the senses,” says Simone.

Adds photographer Freedman: “Any food can be beautiful and sensual if it has qualities that appeal to what you and your lover find sexy and enticing.”

Take a peach, for example.

“Start by looking at its shape and colors,” Simone says. “Press it just hard enough to feel the firmness and the touch of velvety skin, just like when you touch the skin of another person. I believe that fruits and vegetables respond to touch by releasing beautiful aromas for us to breathe in.”

Simone says his Italian heritage and his culinary fluency heightened his awareness of the sensual similarities between fresh, organic foods and the human body. Like the human body, every food in its natural state has beauty in its lines, shape, color and texture. And like the human body, food gives us exquisite pleasure on a primal level.

“Spend a little time looking for the sensual aspects of food, and I guarantee you will become a pro at enjoying the sensual side of life,” he says.

If Hotels Could Talk!!!

Stacy — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 23:38:33 +0000

Hotels.com® smells romance – or maybe scented candles – in the air as they release results from the2012 Romance Survey. The survey found that many couples like to get away for Valentine’s Day, and gleaned insights into their hotel rooms with some intimate findings. What do men and women think about Valentine’s Day hanky-panky? Read on to find out!

When asked, “What is a must-pack item for a romantic weekend?” Lingerie came out on top – (64 percent females; 50 percent males.) The second item couples reach for is the camera (30 percent females; 36 percent males.) We’ll leave it up to the imagination if they are used together. A few other questions include: How often do you and your partner make time for romance during vacation and where is the most romantic place for hanky panky in a hotel? The numbers below don’t lie – somebody isn’t telling the whole truth here:

My partner and I make time for romance during vacation:
Women Say…	Men Say…
A few times during the day (41 percent)	Every day (40 percent)
Every day (31 percent)	A few times during the day (37 percent)
More than once per day (24 percent)	More than once per day (18 percent)
The first day (5 percent)	The first day (5 percent)
Where is the most romantic place for hanky panky in a hotel?
Women Say…	Men Say…
The bed (36 percent)	The bed (26 percent)
Pool/Jacuzzi (26 percent)	Pool/Jacuzzi (29 percent)
The bathtub ( 13 percent)	The bathtub (14 percent)

Let’s talk celebrities. When given a choice of three celebrity crushes, George Clooney is the clear winner amongst women and Jennifer Aniston inches past Halle Berry for the men.

Which of these celebrities is your ideal Valentine’s Day date?
Women Say…	Men Say…
George Clooney (34 percent)	Jennifer Aniston (28 percent)
Bradley Cooper (18 percent)	Halle Berry (25 percent)
Will Smith (9 percent)	Pippa Middleton (11 percent)
Other (36 percent)	Other (35 percent)

Image via Wikipedia

But not all hope is lost! Many respondents wrote in a fourth option: their spouses. Passing over Hollywood A-listers for the ones they truly love – now that’s romantic!

Contrary to the popular rumor that oysters are an aphrodisiac, they came in last on the list of foods that put respondents in the mood for romance. Strawberries and dark chocolate tied for the most romance-inducing foods.

Which food puts you in the mood for romance?
Women Say…	Men Say…
Dark Chocolate (32 percent)	Strawberries (30 percent)
Strawberries (31 percent)	Dark Chocolate (26 percent)
Filet Mignon (13 percent)	Filet Mignon (22 percent)
Oysters (7 percent)	Oysters (12 percent)

Don’t let commercialism fool you – most sweethearts (44 percent females; 45 percent males) say that their ideal Valentine’s Day gift is “just spending time together” as opposed to any tangible gift items. However, jewelry creeps into second place with 32 percent of women and 26 percent of men responding a sparkly bauble is the ideal Valentine’s Day gift.

What’s your ideal Valentine’s Day scenario?
Women Say…	Men Say…
Spending the evening in a hotel suite (32 percent)	Spending the evening in a hotel suite (46 percent)
Dinner at a romantic restaurant (25 percent)	Dinner at a romantic restaurant (21 percent)
Snuggling by the fire (23 percent)	Exploring a new city (19 percent)
Exploring a new city (20 percent)	Snuggling by the fire (14 percent)

“There’s something romantic about being spontaneous,” said Taylor L. Cole, APR, director of public relations and social media forhotels.com. “Tonight’s Local Deals on our site and the hotels.com mobile apps, which feature exclusive mobile deals, allow couples to find an abundance of last minute travel deals and jolt romance into their winter by getting away, even if it is at a local cozy hotel.”

For those lovebirds who like to get away for the holiday, the hotels.com Valentine’s Day Sale is an easy way to plan the perfect gift: spending time together plus wine and chocolate without breaking the bank. Guests staying two or more nights at any Valentine’s Day Sale hotel, get a $25 credit toward wine and chocolate at Lot18, in addition to up to 30 percent off the hotel room.

I’m Reading 50 Shades of Grey and So Is Everyone else in Armonk

Stacy — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 17:59:12 +0000

One night at the Moderne Barn in Armonk, my friend Susan came over to me and asked me if I had read Fifty Shades of Grey ? She promised that I would thank her.

I haven’t been so drawn in by a story and its characters in a long time, so for this to happen for this book shows you just how much I loved it. From beginning to end I was drawn into the story, I felt the fear that Anastasia felt and was just as confused by her with some of Mr Grey’s “issues”. I can’t wait to read the next book in the trilogy, and have already told all of my friends who love to read that this is a must for them

Erotic, amusing, and deeply moving, the Fifty Shades Trilogy
is a tale that will obsess you, possess you, and stay with you forever.

If you haven’t heard of the Fifty Shades Trilogy
….then you must be living in a bubble. That bubble needs to be popped asap so you can get cracking on reading these books! Fifty is so, so….bossy, delectable, addicting and deliciously so! Ana is a gem to read too, but seriously, it’s all about Fifty. Whenever I see an Audi now, I will forever associate it with this trilogy….and I’m ok with that.

According to The Huffington Post everyone in Armonk , NY is reading it. Julie Gerstenblatt article Porn For Mommies warns

you will actually want to have sex with your husband. Like, a lot.

I am an Honestly Now Pro

Stacy — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 14:09:45 +0000

Some friends tell you what you want to hear. They are always agreeing or not disagreeing with anything you say. They make you feel good. I am not that friend…

I am the friend, that you come to when you want to hear the truth.

Does my ass look fat? Should I wear that dress? What do you think of that restaurant ? Should I have a face lift?

Honestly Now gives you advice, privacy when you need it, and a place to share your opinion. more

Meet an Honestly Now Pro: Stacy Geisinger, Social Blogger

We sat down with Honestly Now Pro Stacy Geisinger and asked her a few honest questions of our own. Get to know Stacy, just one of the many amazing Pros on Honestly Now!

What do you do, and what are you known for?

I have a blog that connects cool people to cool things.

How did you land on your current career?

I was addicted to the internet, and seemed to be the go-to gal my whole life. Someone said “you should have a website”. I met someone at a bar who said they used to work for Google. They told me to go on Blogger and watch the video. So basically I watched the video and set up the website. My son was in high school which meant that my job as stay-at-home mom was coming to an end and I found myself with much more free time on my hands. I didn’t need to help with homework anymore — my son wouldn’t let me help on. We really don’t think about how being a mom isn’t quite forever and we really don’t think about what we’ll do next. But you have a lot of life left to live and you always have to reinvent yourself and make new friends. I didn’t do it for that reason, but it turned out that it made my life much more interesting than it every couldn’t happen. And people treat me differently than they used to. They all want to know I know! What’s happening in this weekend? And where should I get my hair done?!

What’s the most uncomfortable honest truth you’ve ever delivered?

I probably do it all the time without thinking — which is one of my bad traits — and they may not speak to me anymore. People always come to me for the truth but in fact do they want the truth?

What’s next for you?

Making StacyKnows be something that you look forward to receiving each and every time. I get excited every single time I get a new subscriber. When someone finds me, i get a kick out of it each and every time. It just never gets boring. I get up every day at 6 in the morning and I can’t wait to turn on my computer. I truly love it. I don’t make much money — it’s really just an allowance — but I truly love it and it’s all gone by in a blink! If I could go out 24 hours of every day and meet people, I would be happy.

What’s the ONE question someone should ask you on Honestly Now?

Ask me anything! Just know that if it’s should I stick with what I’d doing, or should I try something new, I will ALWAYS tell you to try the new thing! That’s my way.

GET THOSE KIDS OUT OF YOUR HAIR THIS SUMMER!

Stacy — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 12:36:51 +0000

One of my favorite memories growing up was going off to sleep away camp for the first time.

My second favorite memory was sending my son off to sleep away for the first time! Woohooo! Summer break for both of us!

Seriously, let’s face it, camp is awesome; most kids who go away for their first time leave with tears in their eyes and then come home with tears at leaving their new found friends behind. It is an incredible learning and growing experience. Whether you are thinking about sending your kid to day camp or sleep away camp this summer, you’ll want to attend the 30th Annual Camp Fair at the Crowne Plaza in White Plains!

There will be over 50 camp directors available to tell you why their camp is the best. Many are NY area based while others are from Maine, New Hampshire and Pennsylvania.

So if you’re looking for the best option to get your kids out of your hair this summer, head on over to the fair on Sunday, February 5th from noon until 3 and find the right one for your kid. There are also two seminars this year, Selecting a Sleep away Camp – Panel Discussion by Maine Camp Experience and How To Choose The First Camp for Your Child with Catherine Perlman, PhD, The Family Coach.

Need more info? Find it on line at www.westchestercampfair.com or call914-397-0200; register in advance to win an iPod! You can thank me in August!
