Jan 14 (THAINDIAN NEWS) “Which Boots are Right For You”

On today’s “Rachael Ray Show,” ladies were shown how to wear the season’s famous “winter boot”. “Gretta’s Boot Camp” gave advice on which style of boot is right for each different body type and height. For instance, stiletto boots can be a hot and sexy alternative to heel when it is so cold, however some people may need a hidden platform to keep their balance. For shorter people who want to wear flat boots, they should choose a boot that does not go so high up on the legs, so the leg will look longer. For women who have thicker calves, and wish to wear short boots, the boot should be ankle height, and not half way up the calf. The last bit of boot advice for us today concerned whether or not a lady over 40 can wear over the knee boots. The number one trend this year in boots in over the knee, and Gretta says that they are fine for older women, but she advises going with a lower heel.

“Diet Killing Foods”

“Lisa Lillian” is perhaps one of the most popular guests that Rachael has on her show. She is the author of “Hungry Girl” a book on dieting and healthy cooking. She was on the show today to debunk diet lies. Tonic water was the first item she spoke of. She said that it has just as much sugar as some soft drinks. Club soda or seltzer water is getter. Dried fruit was another high calorie “health food” because it is high in sugar and fat. Frozen fruit was a better choice, or FREEZE dried fruit. Greek yogurt is way high in fat and calories, the same amount as 10 tbsp of sour cream. You HAVE to read the labels, and be sure you are getting 0% fat. Popcorn was the last thing on the list, and this was because of the toppings that you use. She suggested chili powder, cinnamon, a tad of low calorie butter flavor cooking spray and such.

“French Love”

“Debra Oliver” who is the author of the book “What French Woman Know About Love, Sex, and Other Matters Of The Heart and Mind” came on to “The Rachael Ray Show” to share with us what the French women know about love. She explains that little girls in France look at love totally different that we do. When we, as girls, pull the petals off of flowers, saying “He loves me, He loves me not,” for the french girls it is not so black and white. These little girls say,” He loves me a lot, He loves me a little, He loves me passionately, or not at all,” or something similar to that. For them, love is a journey, and if it does not end in marriage, they do not see it as a failure. They live in the moment and enjoy it as it comes. They are not pressured into trying to make the man they are with “The One”, and when you just relax and get rid of that pressure, you will find your love life improves greatly.
