Q: Since you won't be able to break up fruits that are firm and full of fiber, purchase soft fruits that you'll be able to mash by hand. Keep in mind that fruits are softest when they're completely ripe. Consider basing your smoothie on 1 or a combination of these fruits: Kiwi Mango Banana Pears Berries, such as strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, or raspberries You probably won't need very much liquid in your smoothie, but it's good to have nutritious liquids on hand just in case. For a creamy smoothie, get out milk or your favorite alternative milk, such as almond or soy milk. To make your smoothie sweeter, use fruit juice. For example, use apple, grape, orange, or pineapple juice. Customize your smoothie by stirring in extra flavors or protein powders. If you're adding protein powder, use the amount recommended by the manufacturer. To add flavors, consider using: Cocoa powder Matcha powder Maca powder Spices, such as nutmeg, cinnamon, or turmeric
A: Look for very ripe fruits. Choose a liquid to thin the smoothie. Include powders for protein or flavor.

Article: Scheduling it somewhere between two weeks and a month out should make it close enough that you don't lose sight of it, but not so close that tapering off feels impossible. If you think this is really unrealistic, you can give yourself a few months to really quit. If pot has really become a major fixture in your life, it will be hard to just give it up after a few weeks. Plot out how much you'll use between now and your quit date. Try to make it a linear process for example, at the halfway point between today and the quit date, you should be using half as much as you are now. Put your plan on a calendar, marking how much you'll use for every day, and stick to it. Put the calendar in a place where you have to look at it every day, like next to the bathroom mirror or on the refrigerator. Instead of relying on yourself in the moment to only take what's in your tapering plan, set up your portions ahead of time. That way you don't have to think about it you just take what you've promised yourself you will. Just like taking your medication. As your pot use tapers down and you're spending less time using, find activities to do immediately after you smoke. Transition straight from that to doing another hobby or sport you enjoy, so that you don't have time to notice the difference. Though you should still make time to be alone and relax, try to keep your day filled with hobbies, social activities, schoolwork, or anything else that can keep you focused on something other than smoking pot. Take a look at your schedule and try to fill it with as many social engagements and activities as you can without feeling overwhelmed. If you really want to quit, then you have to keep your eyes on the prize. Remind yourself why you want to quit, whether it's to improve your health, your thinking, your social life, or your overall perspective on life, and stay focused on that goal like a laser. Write it down and tape it above your desk, keep an index card with your motives in your pocket, or just keep your goals in an accessible place that you can easily reach whenever you're losing steam. Whenever you're having a moment of weakness, consider all of the things you can do once you stop smoking for good. You'll feel more active, more energetic, and more motivated to do all of the things you want to do.

Q: One of the more common symptoms of piriformis syndrome is pain felt in the buttocks, where the piriformis is located. If you consistently feel sharp pain in one of your buttocks, you may have piriformis syndrome. Other pain to look out for that could indicate this condition includes: Pain when sitting, standing, or lying down for longer than 15 to 20 minutes. Pain radiating down the back of your thigh, and sometimes into the back of the calf and into the foot. Pain that improves when you move around and gets worse when you sit still. Pain that is not completely relieved by a change of position. Groin and pelvic pain. This may include pain in the labia for women and pain in the scrotum for men. Dyspareunia (painful sexual intercourse) in women. Painful bowel movements. The compression of your sciatic nerve caused by piriformis syndrome can cause difficulty walking. Your leg may feel weakened as well. The two main things to look for when experiencing difficulty walking include: Antalgic gait, which means a gait that develops to avoid pain. This usually leads to limping or shortening your gait to keep from feeling pain. Foot drop, which is when your forefoot drops without your control because of pain in your lower leg. You may not be able to pull the foot up towards your face. When your sciatic nerve becomes compressed due to piriformis syndrome, you may begin to feel a numb or tingling sensation in your foot or leg. These sensations, or "paraesthesias," may present as "pins and needles," numbness, or tingling.
A:
Monitor the source, type, and intensity of pain. Evaluate your gait. Take note of tingling or numbness.
