article: When transitioning to a vegan diet as a teenager, you have to take your lifestyle into consideration.  Think about your school schedule, extracurricular activities, sports, and other events.  Packing your lunch might be a necessary option.  Many school cafeterias don't offer vegetarian or vegan meals.  Packing your lunch each day may help make sure you have a good, nutritious meal that you'll enjoy and fits your vegan lifestyle. Vegan packed lunch options could include:  Sliced veggies, hummus, and avocado on vegan pita bread; whole-wheat pasta tossed with broccoli, black olives, vegan meatballs, and tomato sauce; or vegan whole wheat bread with vegan cheese and vegan deli meat and 1 cup raw carrots. Packing vegan snacks can also make life a little easier - especially if you have after school activities.  Vegan snacks can include soy yogurt and fruit; apple with peanut butter; or 1/3 cup of trail mix. It might also be smart to carry around dried or fresh fruit for a quick snack. They're great for a quick needed meal or snack. Teenage athletes need a little more protein and carbohydrates than teens who are not participating in sports or other athletics.  Consuming protein and complex carbs at every meal and snack can help make sure you consume your required daily amount.  Athletes participating in endurance sports require 0.5 – 0.8 g per pound per day of protein. Moderate to heavy training requires 3 to 4.5 grams of carbohydrates per pound. Your doctor or dietitian can help you ensure you are meeting these amounts. Carbohydrates are the most important fuel —  and are the only fuel that can be used for power moves.  It might also be a good idea to have a snack before and after a sports game, practice or athletic event so you can fuel and recover better. Teenagers need to ensure they're consuming adequate iron daily.  This is especially true for teenage girls and if they are menstruating.  Ideally, aim for at least 15 mg iron daily for teenage girls.  Teenage boys need around 11 mg of iron daily.  Vegan foods that are high in iron include beans, dark greens, tofu, and some nuts.  Consuming iron-rich foods with vitamin C rich food (like citrus fruit or OJ) can help increase the absorption of iron.    Taking a daily multivitamin/multimineral can also help you meet the daily recommendations for iron in addition to a variety of other nutrients. If you are feeling fatigued all the time, it is likely that you are deficient in iron or another vitamin. Ask your primary care provider for blood work to ensure you are not lacking a necessary nutrient.

article: Communication between you and your spouse should be the top priority during and after the transition of living with your mother-in-law. The two of you need to be in accord and your spouse needs to be willing to maintain any limitations with his mom. If he or she falters in supporting your guidelines, you may end up continually at war with your MIL about this issue or that one. What’s more, you might also find yourself at war with your spouse. Presenting as a united front is incredibly important. For one, if your spouse doesn’t fully cooperate, your mother-in-law may not respect your decision and try to fight you on it. Seeing that the two of you are firm in your rules will minimize the chances of that. Working in accord also means that you should bring any problems to your spouse before discussing them with his or her mom. By doing this, you have a chance to vent your frustrations in a safe space. Then, the two of you can come up with an action plan as a couple.  Your spouse may want to address any issues with mom alone or with you present. Respect his or her choice either way. Hold your tongue if your mother-in-law says or does something in defiance of your boundaries. You can easily say something in the moment that you later regret. Spouting off in anger can quickly result in creating a divide between you and your spouse because you were disrespectful with his mom. You might say “Honey, your mother criticized my parenting in front of the kids today. It really made me feel like we weren’t on the same team. Could you please talk with her about this when you get a chance?” Your mother-in-law living in the home can potentially eliminate the intimacy factor between you and your spouse. The time you and your spouse may have spent together watching TV after putting the kids to bed or after a long day’s work might be interrupted by her presence. It’s essential that the two of you cherish and protect your alone time, which will strengthen your bond despite the new household changes.  Talk with your mother-in-law and explain your needs. You may be able to request that she babysit so that you two can go on a date. Or, you might simply let her know that on Fridays, you and your spouse enjoy lunch together, and you’d appreciate if you could keep it that way. Balance your demands by doing plenty of things as a whole family and also encourage your spouse to spend time with his or her mother, too. An example of how to approach this subject might be “Ms. April, we usually go to dinner on Fridays as a couple. We would like to continue this tradition. However, we would like to start going to brunch on Sundays as a family, and would love it if you joined us.” Whether it’s a weekly mani/pedi, morning run or workout session, or a blissful cup of coffee before the kids wake, be sure you are practicing regular self-care. Three generations of family members are a lot to care for. You may now be responsible for caring for your kids, your spouse, and your MIL. You can’t pour from an empty cup, so be sure to make time to care for you as well.

article:
There are commercial stretch wraps that are made specifically for wrapping luggage. These rolls of stretch wrap are designed with big handles to make wrapping your luggage easy. Many are also brightly colored, so identifying your bag after your flight is very easy. These products are available from online retailers and at select some big box stores. When wrapping your own luggage, you can also use industrial stretch wrap that is used for wrapping pallets and commercial goods. This cling wrap is stronger than that sold to wrap foods in homes and restaurants and comes in longer rolls. Commercial cling wrap is typically available from packaging supply and moving supply companies, as well as from online retailers. When planning out what to take on your trip, remember to bring your plastic wrap with you if you want to wrap your luggage on your return flight as well. However, the wrap will have to be transported in another piece of luggage, as you can't get it into a piece of luggage after it has been wrapped. Some people are hesitant to wrap their bags in stretch wrap because it wastes a lot of plastic. If you are concerned about the waste but still want to wrap your bag, you can recycle the stretch wrap at a recycling center that deals with that specific type of plastic.
