This Drink Helps You Burn an Extra 490 Calories Per Week

You know that guzzling water can help take the edge off your hunger and nix the urge to snack in between meals. But guess what? That's not the only way that having plenty of water can help you reach your weight loss goals.

It was our first date.

And we hadn’t even ordered yet.

Without looking up from the appetizer list, I replied, “Sorry, that is not on the menu.”

10 Sex Positions That Practically Guarantee Her Orgasm

“Research shows it’s clitoral stimulation, not vaginal stimulation, that is the powerhouse of the female orgasm,” says sex therapist Ian Kerner, Ph.D., author of She Comes First.
