Step Out Of Overwhelm To Freedom</title><content type='html'>&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="cap"&gt;A&lt;/span&gt;s a small &lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://augusto-ruangrindu.blogspot.com/2009/03/business-start-ups-during-recession.html"&gt;business&lt;/a&gt; owner, creating business success can be overwhelming at times because of all the hats that one needs to wear. In today's economy business can be more stressful than usual as people make their decisions differently about what to buy and where to get their services.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Business owners today must be on top of their game in order to find new customers and maintain loyal ones for a successful business. They must always be in some form of action in order to make sure that everything is running smoothly. They also must know when to stop the action, take time away from the business, and find a way to rejuvenate.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Many entrepreneurs are overworked and overwhelmed because they are doing more than they need to. The biggest challenges for small business owners are that they try to do it all and don’t know how to create a team to help them (without adding employee costs), they don't know what to do next, and they don't have systems and tools in place to automate business activities. These challenges result in high stress levels and lead to poor performance, discouragement, and decreased profits.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It’s not easy being an entrepreneur, but it does not have to be as difficult as it feels right now. There are specific things you can do to reduce the stress.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;One of the ways that you can step back from the stress of business is to remember to take time for yourself. You must be the number one priority in your life and if you are not taking care of yourself, you may not see what you need to in order to grow your business. Find time to pamper yourself and develop your own inner you to prepare for growth when it comes quickly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Stress release comes in many different ways for different people. As an example, some people spend time in a gym and others spend time doing something they love other than their business. The point is to find a way to move away from stress and into a more freeing way of being. To be most effective with this method, schedule time for the stress-relieving activities on your calendar, and then take the time to follow through.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Rejuvenate yourself and you improve all areas of your life, including your business performance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Another way to reduce stress and ‘overwhelm’ is to work with a &lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://augusto-ruangrindu.blogspot.com/2009/03/need-extra-money-in-tight-economy.html"&gt;business coach&lt;/a&gt;. Hiring a coach is an excellent way to take care of yourself and your business because you now have a business partner that has your best interest at heart. Each phone conversation or email you have with your coach will create more balance your life by helping you create the systems and tools needed to reduce your workload.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;With the assistance of a coach, you can move through any barriers that might be present and gain your competitive edge. Listening to an informational teleseminar, participating in laser coaching sessions, determining your priorities, goals and action plans, and getting your questions answered is an excellent to improve the balance between life and work.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Your business can overtake your life if you let it! Yet you hold the keys to prevent that from happening, or to turn it around, if it already has. You are the one who can take the steps needed to move out of the trap of overwhelm, overwork and exhaustion. It’s your time to create &lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://augusto-ruangrindu.blogspot.com/2009/03/how-to-make-money-at-home.html"&gt;business success&lt;/a&gt; without the accompanying high stress others experience. By doing so, you will have a happier life and have the freedom to do the things that are important to you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5119176490508196070-7269372549911724266?l=indo-women.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indo-women.blogspot.com/feeds/7269372549911724266/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5119176490508196070&amp;postID=7269372549911724266' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5119176490508196070/posts/default/7269372549911724266'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5119176490508196070/posts/default/7269372549911724266'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indo-women.blogspot.com/2009/03/does-business-success-have-you-trapped.html' title='Does Business Success Have You Trapped?

Cellulite is a common problem for women who are overweight however, it can affect anyone and with more and more younger women seeking a solution for cellulite removal it is clear that advice and information should be more freely available. Cellulite is really just the formation of fat beneath the skin's surface. The "orange peel" like appearance is merely a build up of fats around the connective tissue below the skin. When the fat becomes excessive it's forced to the skin's surface causing the unattractive dimpled lumps that drive most women to look for a safe way to remove cellulite with treatment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Cellulite is a by-product of the natural aging process. Similar to the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, lower levels of proteins called elastin and collagen in the skin reduces the effectiveness of the connectivity of the skin's tissue. Preventing it's ability to "bounce" or "fight" back against the fatty build up. Older women are more easily affected than both men and women of younger age groups because of cellulite's hormonal nature.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If for any reason you are not able to identify if you have cellulite then just pinch a small portion of skin on your thigh and check for bumps below the surface. If you have cellulite you should not be worried or pass blame to yourself. It is generally experienced by lots of women and it is widely accepted as something that can cause a lack of confidence. It can be overcome easily with the correct cellulite removal treatment, there are suitable solutions available yet, there are also some cellulite treatments that should be avoided.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Why is it Affecting me and What Cellulite Treatments are Available?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Genetic inheritance, age, fitness, weight, amount of body fat and diet are all contributing factors in the build up of cellulite. Not one can be pinpointed to be more responsible than the others for the appearance of cellulite and the diverse combination of all of aforementioned factors will determine just how much cellulite is visible and also how difficult it will be to remove cellulite from your body.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Everyone is a unique individual and it's unknown if cellulite is caused by one factor more than the others. For example, women are more likely to have cellulite than men so this indicates a genetic preference which we have not yet been able to identify fully. One thing is for sure, the effective removal of cellulite requires a combination of treatments known to be effective in removing cellulite completely. Combining a few methods of cellulite removal together guarantees an effective treatment for removing cellulite. Some specialty clinics that specialize in cellulite removal apply deep massaging techniques to puff up the skin and temporarily reduce the cellulite’s appearance. Mesotherapy is a treatment used in cellulite reduction which requires an injection of ingredients specifically designed to help combat cellulite however, without follow up treatment this usually provides unsatisfactory results. Liposuction is often considered as a cellulite treatment by sufferers however this is a treatment designed to remove excess fat from the body - not cellulite.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The above mentioned remedies offer only temporary relief and are likewise not advisable if one is seeking affordable, lasting results.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Cellulite Treatment Doesn't Need to Be Painful to Be Effective.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The quickest and easiest method of removing cellulite is to use several of the more affordable methods together at the same time and attacking the cellulite in this way.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5119176490508196070-6433561106561892709?l=indo-women.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indo-women.blogspot.com/feeds/6433561106561892709/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5119176490508196070&amp;postID=6433561106561892709' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5119176490508196070/posts/default/6433561106561892709'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5119176490508196070/posts/default/6433561106561892709'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indo-women.blogspot.com/2009/03/what-is-cellulite-and-how-can-it-be.html' title='What Is Cellulite And How Can It Be Safely Removed?'/><author><name>Purbaningrum</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5119176490508196070.post-3732278851520668393</id><published>2009-03-02T07:12:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-03-02T07:13:38.298-08:00</updated><title type='text'>7 Signs He Is Interested</title><content type='html'>&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="cap"&gt;A&lt;/span&gt;re you actively flirting with a guy you see frequently but having trouble knowing for sure whether he might want to get together? It can be frustrating not knowing whether he may feel the same way as you do. Wouldn’t it be great to be able to read his mind? While that may not be possible, there are a number of telltale signs that he is probably very interested. Here are 7 of those signs:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Sign #1: He uses your name often when he speaks to you: If he likes you, your name is literally music to his ears and he will want to say it often. It makes him feel good to say your name.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Sign #2: He tends to brush up against or touch you: Those little innocent brushes in the hallway or light touches on the shoulder at your desk are not by accident. They are ways of being closer to you and are a prelude to more intimate physical touching.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Sign #3: He ignores you at odd times: If he is unsure about how you feel about him, he may actually try ignoring you at certain times. He may be nervous about what to say, or he could be afraid that you will catch a glimpse in his eyes of how he really feels about you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Sign #4: You are good friends but he avoids talking about his love life: If you two are friends but he wants more, he may conspicuously avoid telling you about whom he is dating or he may leave key details out. This is a classic sign that he is trying to protect your feelings and also that he is trying not hamper the possibility of dating you in the future.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Sign #5: He tends to ignore other women when you are around: For example, if there are three attractive women in the room and he is giving you by far the most attention, that is a huge sign that he likes you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Sign #6: He looks for your reaction first when he tells a joke: If you are in a group situation and he tells what he thinks is a funny joke, he will give his first eye contact after the punch line to the person on whom he has a crush.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Sign #7: His close friends ask you about whom you are dating: Do you find that his friends have asked you about your love life? They may be trying to find out more information and then feeding it back to him so that he can stay informed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Once you know are fairly sure that he likes you, it is time to take action. Put together a step-by-step plan for getting him to fall for you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5119176490508196070-3732278851520668393?l=indo-women.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indo-women.blogspot.com/feeds/3732278851520668393/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5119176490508196070&amp;postID=3732278851520668393' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5119176490508196070/posts/default/3732278851520668393'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5119176490508196070/posts/default/3732278851520668393'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indo-women.blogspot.com/2009/03/7-signs-he-is-interested.html' title='7 Signs He Is Interested'/><author><name>Purbaningrum</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5119176490508196070.post-4456550589608424829</id><published>2009-03-02T07:10:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-03-02T07:11:52.576-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Keep in mind the more weight you gain during pregnancy the more likely you are to have stretch marks. Normally the skin is elastic and capable of stre</title><content type='html'>&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="cap"&gt;U&lt;/span&gt;ntil recently it was “one size fits all” for women golfers. Since most major golf club companies had less than 10% of their sales in ladies golf clubs, they offered women few if any choices in club length, shaft flex, swing weight, etc. LPGA Hall of Famer Nancy Lopez has come to the rescue with an excellent product line for women golfers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Club Fitting for Women&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The company offers at least a basic level of on-line club fitting, which is far better than nothing. They have several lines of clubs, and through some general questions about how often a woman plays golf, and in general how athletic she is, a particular line of clubs is suggested. From there grip size is determined based on a woman’s glove size. Based on how tall a lady is, club lengths are suggested. More will be said about this length issue shortly, as most women play clubs that are too long for them, as do most men. The last step is to choose a shaft flex based on swing speed. Once again, most golfers, both men and women, tend to play with shafts that are too stiff, so a lady might choose to go with more flex than the formula suggests. Those choices are available, fortunately, including shorter club lengths. So the options are there. A custom club fitting would do a lot more, but the above system is so much better than the old “one size fits all” mentality.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Extensive Choices of Clubs&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Nancy Lopez golf clubs come in a choice of sets. There are two main product lines, Lopez clubs and Ashley clubs, the former being top of the line. Each category has several choices as well. The available sets are very intelligently put together, using a blend of woods, hybrids and irons that make sense for most women who often have problems getting the ball high enough into the air. Several sets have woods and hybrid clubs until the 7 iron, for example. One set offers woods and hybrids and no iron clubs until the pitching wedge. It is not surprising that a player like Nancy Lopez knows that most women have no business trying to hit a 3, 4, 5 or even 6 iron. Most men shouldn’t be hitting 3 and 4 irons either, for that matter.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Available for both Left and Right Handed Players/Driver Length&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Nancy Lopez golf clubs are available for both left and right handed players in most of the models. They also offer titanium drivers for women with high enough swing speeds, and that is another plus. One note of caution is in order, however. As mentioned earlier, most people, both men and women, play with golf clubs that are too long. People think they will get more distance with longer clubs, so golf club companies sell them what they want. What is gained in more distance, however, is often lost in less accuracy and hitting the ball less consistently. Nancy Lopez golf clubs do have a “Petite” option which is an inch shorter, so most lady golfers might do well to opt for that. To illustrate this point, consider the following. The average driver length on the men’s PGA Tour is 44.5 inches. Yet the driver in a standard off-the-shelf set of clubs is typically 45 inches for men and 44 inches for women. If the best players in the world are using an average of 44.5 inches of driver length, what in the world are normal, far less skilled amateurs doing using longer clubs? Tom Wishon in his excellent book “The Search for the Perfect Golf Club” goes into this issue in great detail. Fortunately the smaller lengths are in fact offered to ladies with Nancy Lopez golf clubs, so once again the vast majority of women should be using those smaller clubs. In order to know what length to choose, however, one has to be aware of this issue.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Conclusion&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Nancy Lopez golf clubs are truly a revolution in ladies golf clubs. They are certainly the next best thing to custom fitting and having custom clubs built. Check them out on the web by doing a simple search for “Nancy Lopez golf clubs”.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5119176490508196070-4456550589608424829?l=indo-women.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indo-women.blogspot.com/feeds/4456550589608424829/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5119176490508196070&amp;postID=4456550589608424829' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5119176490508196070/posts/default/4456550589608424829'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5119176490508196070/posts/default/4456550589608424829'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indo-women.blogspot.com/2009/03/keep-in-mind-more-weight-you-gain.html' title='Keep in mind the more weight you gain during pregnancy the more likely you are to have stretch marks.

Otherwise known as striae gravidarum, stretch marks look like streaks on the surface of the skin, and may be vary in color depending on your natural skin color. Most lighter skinned women develop pinkish stretch marks, whereas darker skinned women tend to have stretch marks that are lighter than the surrounding skin.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Most women develop stretch marks on their abdomen during pregnancy, however it is also common to get stretch marks on the buttocks, hips, breasts and thighs. In some cases up to 90 percent of women have stretch marks on some part of their body as a result of pregnancy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;What Causes Stretch Marks?&lt;br /&gt;Stretch marks form when your skin is stretched rapidly as happens during pregnancy. Most women develop stretch marks during the later trimesters of pregnancy though some women start to develop them as soon as their bellies start growing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Stretch marks are actually small tears that form in the tissue that supports the skin and helps it stretch. Stretch marks represent the tearing or separation of collagen from the skin when tearing occurs. Stretch marks are not harmful or painful and usually fade over time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Who Gets Stretch Marks&lt;br /&gt;Many women believe that using lotions and creams help prevent stretch marks. Realistically speaking however, the number of stretch marks you get depends on how elastic your skin is. The elasticity of your skin usually relates to your genetic make up. The best thing you can do is find out if your mother got bad stretch marks during pregnancy. If she did, you are probably more prone to stretch marks than other women.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Keep in mind the more weight you gain during pregnancy the more likely you are to have stretch marks. Normally the skin is elastic and capable of stretching quite a bit, however for some women the changes that occur during pregnancy are very drastic. These rapid fluctuations of weight and skin stretching can result in stretch marks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Women with multiples are more likely to get stretch marks because their bellies usually grow much larger than women with single pregnancies. Other women likely to develop stretch marks include women who gain a lot of weight quickly during their pregnancy and women who carry big babies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Here are some other factors that may contribute to your susceptibility to stretch marks:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;* If you developed stretch marks before (like on your breasts during puberty) you are more likely to get stretch marks while pregnant.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;* If you had stretch marks during another pregnancy you will usually get them again.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;* If you are overweight or gain more weight than recommended you are more likely to get stretch marks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;* The better hydrated and well nourished you are the less likely you are to develop serious stretch marks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Stretch Mark Prevention&lt;br /&gt;Most women believe that they can prevent stretch marks by using creams and lotions. There are many formulations on the market today that claim to help prevent stretch marks. Some of these may help moisturize your skin and reduce itching. They may help reduce some stretch marks however there are no scientific studies that support this.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;You probably know at least one parent however that swears by cocoa butter or some other formulation to prevent stretch marks. If nothing else rubbing these creams into your belly provides your unborn baby with a light and comforting massage. They may also give you peace of mind knowing you did everything possible to prevent stretch marks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The best thing you can do to minimize stretch marks aside from using any creams or moisturizers you select is gaining the recommended amount of weight during pregnancy. Doctors recommend most women gain between 25 and 34 pounds. Gaining much more than this can cause you to develop more stretch marks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Removing Stretch Marks&lt;br /&gt;Most women worry about stretch marks after they have their baby. Fortunately most stretch marks do fade with time. Usually after 12 moths postpartum most stretch marks are light and less noticeable. Their texture may remain different from the surrounding skin however. Many women notice their stretch marks fading into whitish lines that are minimally noticeable.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Some women have very severe stretch marks that impact their self esteem after pregnancy. There are many treatments available for women that want to improve the appearance of their stretch marks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If your stretch marks are particularly bad, you may consult with your doctor or a dermatologist. Some topical treatments such as tretinoin cream can help reduce stretch marks. These creams must be used after pregnancy however, because they can cause defects in your unborn baby.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Most of the topical treatments available should be used shortly after delivery, before they start to fade. The more time that passes between the delivery and use of cream, the less likely they are to be effective.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you are breastfeeding it is important you consult with your doctor before using any stretch mark treatments. Some treatments may impact your milk supply or pass through the breast milk to your baby.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Most of the creams available to reduce stretch marks do not help relieve the sagging skin that also accompanies childbirth. There are some newer treatments including laser treatments however that may improve the skins elasticity and help reduce stretch marks. Some women also consider plastic surgery after they are done having children. A tummy tuck can help hide some stretch marks and reduce sagging skin.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Most women are able to joyfully overlook stretch marks when they consider the miracle of life they bring into the world. For the most the small annoyance even the worst stretch marks bring are well worth the joys of bringing a newborn baby into the world. Do what you can during pregnancy to maintain an appropriate weight and try not to worry too much about stretch marks. Many women wear them with pride, a ‘war wound’ or “badge of honor” related to their pregnancy. Why not wear them with pride?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5119176490508196070-2111031348593637452?l=indo-women.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indo-women.blogspot.com/feeds/2111031348593637452/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5119176490508196070&amp;postID=2111031348593637452' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5119176490508196070/posts/default/2111031348593637452'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5119176490508196070/posts/default/2111031348593637452'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indo-women.blogspot.com/2009/03/stretch-marks-prevention-and-treatment.html' title='Stretch Marks: Prevention And Treatment During Pregnancy'/><author><name>Purbaningrum</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5119176490508196070.post-2423930467791540951</id><published>2008-07-04T13:47:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-04T14:03:24.952-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Unique Woman From Indonesian</title><content type='html'>She can multi orgasme... .and liquid from her vagina flowing like fountain water...hehehe...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img8.uploadhouse.com/fileuploads/2021/2021088d96db94d11fca62dfdd33c72b5d6f7fe.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px;" src="http://img8.uploadhouse.com/fileuploads/2021/2021088d96db94d11fca62dfdd33c72b5d6f7fe.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;U must see this video...!!!
