INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Activity is integral to a healthy lifestyle and to gaining weight in a responsible way, but don’t go overboard. Especially if you have a job or hobby which requires you to be on your feet all day, constant movement can burn the excess calories you’re taking in before you even start to see the gains you’re looking for. Prescription medicines or treatment regimens can have side effects which lead to weight loss. Nausea is also common, which is certainly a problem for anyone attempting to muster up the appetite for five or six meals a day. Sickness will stop your weight gain plan in its tracks, so it’s important to still eat a healthy diet (even if you’re eating a lot more of that diet) and to get plenty of rest and exercise. Being underweight can lead to a weaker immune system, so this will require particular diligence on your part.  Anemia, caused by iron, folate, or vitamin B12 deficiencies, can occur among the underweight. Supplement your diet with these nutrients if you feel dizzy, fatigued, or headache-y.   Sudden or substantial weight loss can also be indicative of disease. The issue could be digestive, thyroid-related, diabetes, or even cancer. Only a medical professional can determine this, so schedule a consultation if experiencing any unusual weight loss. Stress, anxiety, and depression can have unwelcome effects on appetite, cause difficulty in achieving eating goals, and be all-around disruptive of a person’s other attempts at self-care. If you feel this is applicable to you, consult your doctor for help in how to best manage your mental well-being. Body dysmorphia and eating disorders are serious issues relating to self-perception and weight, both of which should be diagnosed and treated by a medical professional. Up to 30 million people of all ages suffer from eating disorders in U.S., and eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of all mental health issues.

SUMMARY: Moderate prolonged physical activity. Understand your medications. Stay healthy. Aim for overall wellness.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Use a headband, hair band, or bobby pins to pull back your hair and bangs so your face is fully exposed. You don't want it to get in the way during your facial. Use your favourite facial cleanser to remove make-up and wash your face. Use warm water, instead of cold or hot, since warm water is the best temperature for delicate facial skin.  Be sure to remove all of your make-up before you continue with the facial. If you're in the mood to try something new, use the oil cleansing method to wash your face. Apply almond, jojoba or olive oil to your face, then wipe it away with warm water. This is an excellent way to remove make-up without damaging skin. Dead skin cells build up on the face and leave it looking a little dull. Ex-foliating your skin to brighten it up is an essential part of any facial routine. Use your favourite facial scrub to gently rub away the dead skin. If you don't have a scrub, you can make your own. Try these simple combinations:  1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon honey, and 1 teaspoon milk 1 teaspoon ground oatmeal, 1 teaspoon honey, and 1 teaspoon olive oil 1 teaspoon ground almonds, 1 teaspoon honey, and 1 teaspoon water Give your face a final rinse to remove all traces of your facial scrub. You may need to use a washcloth dipped in warm water to remove scrub from around your eyes and nose. Finish by patting your face dry with a soft towel. Massage increases circulation, leading to brighter, healthier skin. Now that your face is clean, give yourself a massage before moving to the next phase of your facial. Use your forefinger and middle finger to massage your face in a gentle circular motion.  Massage your forehead, starting in the middle and moving down to the temples. Massage your nose and cheeks. Massage your lips, chin, and jaw.

SUMMARY: Pull your hair back from your face. Wash your face with gentle cleanser. Use a facial scrub or another exfoliant. Rinse your face and pat it dry. Give yourself a facial massage.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: With rejection sensitivity, you can easily get caught up dwelling on people who reject you and forget about those who embrace you. Make a point to spend time with people who value who you are as a person.  Whether it’s friends, coworkers, peers at school, or family members, make an effort to connect with people who love and care for you. They can help balance the scales against any rejection you feel from others. If you don't have strong relationships, meet some new people. Volunteer and help out in your local community. Join an organization or club. Strike up a conversation with the wallflower at a party. Become an advocate for those who are being bullied. People with rejection sensitivity often go into social situations expecting to get the cold shoulder. In many ways, this can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. If you enter a situation in bad faith and with a negative attitude, you are more likely to get the same in return. However, you may start getting a more positive outcome by expecting to be accepted. When you’re entering a new social setting, tell yourself, “They’ll like me” or “I’m going to make so many friends.” You just might be surprised at the outcome. If you tend to receive many rejections in a particular area of life, such as in your career or dating life, you may need to examine your actions to see how you can improve. Think about it: you will never catch a fish if you’re using the wrong bait. For instance, if you are applying for jobs that demand gregariousness and you’re shy, you may not impress the interviewer. Switch tactics and search for a similar job in which it doesn’t matter so much how outgoing you are. You may just get the position. If you interact with people who reject you, criticize you, or put you down on a regular basis, you should consider distancing yourself from those people. Establish healthy boundaries by letting them know that their behavior is hurtful to you. If the behavior continues, avoid contact with the person if you can.  On the other side of the coin, it is important to respect the boundaries of others. For example, don’t keep asking someone out on a date if they consistently say “no.” Let them know that you respect their decision, and move on. People with rejection sensitivity often have histories of abuse or neglect in childhood. In addition, there are certain mental health conditions like depression and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) that are associated with higher levels of rejection sensitivity. See an experienced psychologist or psychotherapist who can carefully evaluate your history and any other symptoms you might be experiencing.

SUMMARY:
Find a positive support system. Expect acceptance. Rethink your strategy. Avoid people who consistently reject you. Consult with a mental health provider.
