Self-tracking devices that monitor factors like weight, calories consumed, exercise, and sleep can help with weight loss and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Recording daily metrics makes people more mindful of their behaviors and can help identify issues affecting progress. Seeing quantitative data over time through charts and graphs also keeps dieters motivated to continue healthy habits. While not a solution on their own, self-tracking devices in combination with a good diet and exercise plan provide valuable self-insight.

Intro To Weight Loss part1
Rapid Metabolic Fat Loss helps you rid the fat and keep it off. No more yo-yo diets. No more quick fix diets, make dieting a thing of the past.
Intro presentation part2
This document advertises a "Rapid Fat Loss Program" that claims to help with appetite control, calorie control, and energy control. It says the program will fix metabolism, cause significant weight loss of 10kg or more in 3 weeks through metabolic correction drops and thermogenic supplements, and repair the ability to keep weight off long-term. It claims the program has already been tried successfully by friends and family and encourages interested people to contact them or visit their website for more information.
Using data to improve your health
This document discusses how mobile apps and devices can help track health data to improve exercise, weight loss, and health outcomes. It provides examples of popular apps and devices that track metrics like steps, blood pressure, blood glucose, and exercise. The document outlines patterns the author found in their own data, such as blood pressure increases with high fat intake or optimal weight loss occurring with at least 5 hours of exercise and calorie intake under 1850 per week. Overall, the document advocates using tracked health data and finding patterns to set goals and monitor progress toward better health and weight loss.
The danish way of life
The document provides an overview of various aspects of Danish culture and society. It discusses common Danish habits like removing shoes inside homes and hugging instead of kissing when greeting. It also outlines the education system, meals, transportation methods, role of music in family events, sports participation rates, and national anthems of Denmark. Bicycles outnumber people in Copenhagen, with over 500,000 bikes for just over 500,000 residents. Football is the most popular sport with over 300,000 members, followed by golf and aquatics.
Smarter Backup
Traditional forms of backup and recovery don't work anymore - there is too much data and it is growing every day; the IT environment has become extremely complex and distributed; and service level requirements have increased while budgets have not. You need a smarter approach to protecting your data.
E poster
This document outlines the goals and objectives of a professional development for English instructors on working with multilingual and nonstandard dialect students. It aims to provide instructors with an overview of issues these students face, explore relevant scholarship like bidialectalism and code-meshing, and give instructors pedagogical tools and best practices to make their classrooms more effective for these students. Specific topics that will be covered include levels of code-switching awareness, code-meshing strategies, and resources like Rosina Lippi-Green's text on nonstandard dialects. The overall goal is to help instructors provide more student agency and support multilingual and nonstandard dialect students in the writing process.

Eatnb slim
This document discusses healthy and sustainable approaches to weight loss compared to restrictive fad diets. It emphasizes creating a lifestyle of healthy eating and exercise through calorie counting using tools like MyFitnessPal. Fad diets are not recommended as they are very restrictive, eliminate food groups, often cause weight regain and can interfere with metabolism. Instead, a balanced calorie reduction of 500 calories per day through mindful eating and tracking is suggested to lose 1 pound per week safely. Supplements may provide additional support. The key is finding a sustainable lifestyle approach rather than quick fixes from fad diets.

How to Lose Weight Faster, But Safely
Lose 5 pounds in one week! It's a trope we see everywhere. And while it’s possible

metabolism and loads of other factors unique to you, including physical activity and
body composition.

SUBSCRIBE SIGN INWeight loss ultimately comes back to the concept of calories in, calories out: Eat less
than you burn and you’ll lose weight. And while it’s possible to lose water weight
quickly on a low-carb diet, I certainly wouldn’t advocate for it. The diet itself can
trick you into thinking that this eating style is working — when really, you might
gain back what you lost as soon as you eat carbs again. That can feel incredibly
dispiriting if you want results that last longer than a week.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapy
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.
