Article: Ants are highly skilled at escaping from containers, no matter what precautions you may take. A store-bought ant farm will probably be safe, but if you've made your own ant farm at home you'll want to check it for any tiny gaps that might allow ants to escape.  An easy way to tell if your ant farm is secure is by filling it with water, wiping the outside dry, and turning it upside down to see if anything drips out. Only fill your ant farm with water if it's empty. Do not attempt to test your ant farm in this way if you've already filled it with dirt and/or ants. When you are ready to add your ants to the ant farm, they may attempt to rush out of their storage container. You can slow them down to more easily transfer them to the ant farm by placing them in a refrigerator for a very brief period of time.  Store the transportation container full of ants in the refrigerator at a low setting, but only for a minute or two. This should slow the ants down sufficiently. Anything longer than two minutes might kill the entire colony, so be sure that you don't leave them unattended for long. Once your ants are in their farm, they should begin exploring their new habitat and digging an extensive network of tunnels. Like all living things, your ants will have some basic needs that must be met if the ants are to survive.  Ants need a source of clean drinking water, but not too much or they will drown. Use an eye dropper to add just a few drops of clean water every other day.  Give your ants fresh food every two to three days, depending on how quickly they're eating. Small insects and tiny scraps of kitchen meat are an ideal food source for young ants, while older ants will enjoy some sweet and sugary crumbs. Keep your ants out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. Try to maintain a steady room temperature of 65 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit (18 to 24 degrees Celsius).

Article: While you can't lose weight from one part of your body specifically, losing weight from your entire body will also lower the amount of fat in your thighs. If you have good underlying muscle tone, this should leave you with slimmer, firmer thighs. Your first step should be to start keeping track of how many calories you eat per day — you may be surprised how quickly they can pile up. Calorie counters can be a huge help here. These handy online programs allow you to input the food you eat each day to get an accurate count for your calorie intake, then input your height, weight, sex, and exercise level to figure out how many calories you've burnt. Great calorie counters are available at Fatsecret.com, Myfitnesspal.com, and more.There are even calorie counter apps available for download to mobile devices. Once you know how many calories you're eating each day, losing weight is simple (though often not easy.) As long as you eat fewer calories than you burn during the day, you will lose weight — it's just a matter of time. The greater the gap between the calories you intake and the calories you expend, the quicker you'll lose weight. Note, however, that any diet that leaves you unbearably hungry or unable to function is not a healthy one. In general, one pound of body mass is equal to about 3,500 calories. Losing this many calories is more or less equal to losing one pound. In other words, if you have a calorie deficit of 500 calories per day, you'll lose about a pound per week because 500 × 7 = 3,500. Going on a diet doesn't mean starving your body of the things it needs to function. In fact, since you're eating less than you normally would, it's extra important to eat healthy so that your body gets adequate nutrition. As you stick to your diet, remember that you're aiming to skimp on calories, not nutrients, and plan your meals accordingly.  This means that high-calorie, low-nutrient foods (like processed foods, sweets, greasy snack foods, and so on) should be the first things to go. In fact, if you tend to overindulge in these sorts of foods, you may notice that removing them from your diet is enough to make you lose weight without changing anything else. On the other hand, high-nutrient, low-calorie foods are a must. For example, nutrition-dense vegetables like kale and spinach can give you loads of vitamins and minerals for very few calories, while whole wheat grains provide plenty of energy and filling fiber. Even lean meats like chicken breast can provide filling, satisfying protein (a must if you're trying to build muscle) without having a caloric load that's unmanageable. For more information, see our article on so-called superfoods. " Going on a diet shouldn't mean making yourself absolutely miserable. It's OK to enjoy life's culinary pleasures from time to time, especially at special occasions like holidays, birthday parties, and so on. As long as you return to your diet the next day, any sort minor indulgence is unlikely to hurt your progress in the long term. In fact, the boost in morale from a single diet "cheat" day can be so rewarding that some dieticians actually recommend it. Think of it like the productivity boost you get at work or school after going on vacation — taking some time off makes it easier to stay focused in the long term. As noted above, there are wrong ways to lose weight. For instance, losing weight too quickly can be harmful — even a cause of numerous health problems if it's prolonged. In addition, any sort of diet that relies on starvation, purging, or other drastic solutions should be out of the question. These tactics constitute eating disorders — potentially serious conditions that require medical intervention.
