If you are feeling gassy like you’ve gained extra pounds in the past few days. Most likely, bloating is to blame. Fortunately, you can avoid that puffiness for good by taking a few simple precautions.

•Rule Out Wheat Allergies or Lactose Intolerance. Food allergies and intolerances can cause gas and bloating. If you suspect you have an allergy or intolerance, ensure your doctor confirms it. You may benefit from reducing the amount of the suspected food or eating it with other foods. In the case of dairy, it can help to choose aged cheeses and yogurts, which are lower in lactose.

•Watch The Raw Veggies. Raw produce can be tough for your body to break down, leading to bloating. Cooking vegetables makes them easier for your stomach to handle.

•Limit Sodium. Highly processed foods tend to be high in sodium and low in fiber, both of which can contribute to that bloated feeling. Ensure you read food labels, when buying processed, canned, or frozen foods. Go for no more than 500 mg of sodium per serving in any product — or a total of 1,500 to 2,300 mg of sodium per day. Look for labels that say “sodium free,” “low sodium,” or “very low sodium.”

•Go Slow with Beans and Gassy Vegetables. Beans can cause that gassy feeling, so can the cruciferous family of vegetables, such as broccoli, brussels sprouts, and cauliflower. You can work them into your diet slowly until your body adjusts to the compounds that can initially cause gas or you can take an anti-gas product.

•Eat Smaller Meals More Often. Instead of three big meals per day, try eating smaller meals more often. This can keep you keep free of the bloated feeling that often follows large meals. Eating more frequently can also help control blood sugar and manage hunger. So go for five to six small meals each day, but make sure the quantity of food and calories are proportionate to your needs.

Luxury resorts usually come in two kinds of sizes, either big or small. Bigger is sometimes better but they often lose their intimacy, their hands-on service touch and the magical feeling that they know and care about guests as individuals. Small luxury resorts tend to be charming and highly personal. Here are ten fantastic vacations in luxury resorts.

1.Dunton Hot Springs, Dolores, CO. Dunton in Colorado was an actual Wild West mining enclave turned ghost town that has been meticulously restored by its wealthy patron of an owner into a white glove, all-inclusive, micro-resort unlike any other. As its name implies, the town is built around natural hot springs, which can be enjoyed in an outdoor pool or indoor bath house.




2. Royal Isabela, Puerto Rico. Royal Isabela is a family-owned luxury golf resort with just 20 rooms on 2,000 gorgeous acres of coastal cliffs, beach, tropical forests and an inland river valley.



3. Auberge du Soleil, Napa Valley, CA. It’s the most renowned hotel in America’s most renowned wine region. The resort has a standout spa, lavish pool with cabanas, daybeds, WiFi and poolside cocktail service, a museum-quality outdoor sculpture garden, yoga pavilion, modern fitness center and tennis courts.



4. Mukul, Guacalito de la Isla, Nicaragua. Owned by Billionaire philanthropist Carlos Pellas, the second wealthiest man in Nicaragua; the small resort has huge amenities including a stunning 18-hole golf course by David Kidd, of Bandon Dunes fame, with an already famous one-of-a-kind 18th hole playing to a green on the beach.



5. Amangiri, Canyon Point, UTAH. Set among deep canyons and imposing buttes, the resort occupies 600-acres near Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument and has been carefully designed to fit into the raw and rugged landscape.



6. The Mansion, MGM Grand, Las Vegas. The Mansion has just 29 oversized villas, each resembling a lavish private home. All villas include a dedicated full-time butler, dining room, jetted tub, walk-in steam shower and many also have full-size private pools, hot tubs, full kitchens and extras such as personal gyms, baby grand pianos, home theater rooms and beauty salons complete with barber chairs.



7. Blantyre, Lenox, MA. With just 21 sumptuous rooms in a mansion and adjacent carriage house, as well as swankier freestanding cottages, all on 117-acres in the heart of Massachusetts’s Berkshires region, Blantyre elevates the notion of a country Inn or Bed & Breakfast to a whole new level.



8. CordeValle, San Martin, CA. CordeValle consists of the smallest North American resort from luxury brand Rosewood and has a highly rated 18-hole Robert Trent Jones II golf course and the acclaimed Clos LaChance winery and vineyard on site.



9. Twin Farms, Barnard, VT. Twin Farms is like a luxury summer camp for adults, as they get a free run of all activities and facilities, including an extensive network of hiking/mountain biking/cross-country skiing/snowshoeing trails, dotted with picnic tables where staff will deliver anything from cookies to champagne and gourmet picnic lunches at your beck and call.



10. Jade Mountain, St. Lucia. There are less than 30 accommodations, all but five of which are “Infinity Pool Sanctuaries,” rather than rooms or suites. The entire Sanctuary is open to the tropical breezes and amazing vistas, and to this end, every room has been specially positioned so that there is no place on land or sea from which you can see in. The entire resort is on a mountain peak, with the sanctuaries in a hub layout surrounding the central building, linked by suspended bridges.

Everyone wants to be liked, even the people who swear they don’t care. Yet many people go through life, or at least part of their lives, feeling as if people do not like them. This article will discuss many things to help you but will not necessarily guarantee you a friend.

1 Be funny, but don’t act like a complete idiot:

The class clown or the class prankster is usually a pretty popular kid, known for always making people laugh. Being genuinely funny is a hard thing to do, but it’s an important part of getting other people to like you. Act funny and go with the joke the other person says. Keep the jokes and pranks to a minimum so the other person will not get annoyed, bored, or frustrated with the pranks you are doing.



2 Remember that people are interested in themselves:

All you have to do is be interested in people in order to get to know them. Talk to people about themselves. Lead the conversation, making sure that it stays about them and they believe that they’re the one in charge.

Find out what they’re interested in and seek to learn more.

Ask the person more questions about his hobby.

These questions will lead to answers, and you can ask more questions or develop a conversation based on that. Regardless, the other person will be impressed that you’re so interested in them, and glad that they get to talk about something they actually care about.



3 Talk about positive things:

Generally, people want to be happy, so positive things are happier to talk about than negative things. Nobody likes to discuss depressing topics. Talking about negative things or complaining too much can put the person you’re talking to in an uncomfortable position and sometimes leads the conversation astray. Instead, focus on sharing the happy or positive aspects of your life for other people to enjoy or relate to.

4 Show sincere enthusiasm while talking about what you love doing. Even if people know next to nothing about what you love doing, they’ll be happy if you’re happy explaining it. That happiness is infectious.



5 “Danger topics” like religion and politics should not be discussed if you’re meeting somebody for the first time. Most people will automatically judge you if you happen to share different beliefs about religion or politics, so it’s best to leave those discussions for a later time.

6 If you want to talk about something negative or bad that happened to you, make it a funny story. Humor is a great way to get people to like you, especially when you can turn a horrific or boring story into something that’s lighthearted and exciting. Look at yourself and find the humor in your life. It’s okay to make fun of yourself if everyone knows that you’re not taking yourself seriously.

7 Develop your own sense of humor. Some people are really good at physical comedy — impressions, slapstick, vaudeville. Others have more of a dry sense of humor, preferring puns and wisecracks and cynicism. Figure out what kind of humor you’re good at so that you can call it your own.

8 Find humor in the things that other people have missed. Really good humor often comes from the stuff that’s right in front of our eyes, but that everyone else hasn’t noticed. Take notice of the funny things that happen to you and write them down or store them in your memory. When the time comes and the subject is right, unleash them on your friends.

9 Bounce back from failed jokes. Some jokes will miss their mark and not end up being funny. But the great part about this is that no one ever remembers the jokes that weren’t funny! People only remember the ones that were. So as soon as you get discouraged about telling a bad joke or missing the timing on a joke, remember that you’ll have another chance at it soon and make the best of it.
