Q: Although it may not appear dirty, you will want to clean every toy, exercise station, food and water bowls, and any other thing that is housed in your hamster's cage. Clean them thoroughly to ensure that your hamster's house is as fresh as it can be. Spray or soak cage items in your cleaning solution to disinfect them. Use your washcloth to clean the cage items as thoroughly as you can. Make sure to get all corners or any tough to reach spots. Cleaning the cage is the main focus of the regular maintenance of keeping your hamster's home tidy and hygienic. Make sure you clean every surface completely and thoroughly. Hamster cages may vary in their construction, however, the same general cleaning tips apply to all types of hamster cages. Use your disinfectant solution and cloth to scrub the cage clean. Some areas may have bedding stuck to the cage wall. These may need to be scraped away or scrubbed vigorously to remove. Soaking problem areas of the cage can help break them up and allow for easier removal. If your cage is a wire or mesh cage, make sure to clean each bar. Some cages are aquariums and these will require you to completely clean each surface and corner. Before you can put the cage back together, you will need to let the cage dry. Adding new bedding before the cage is fully dry can cause the bedding to become wet, resulting in it needing to be cleaned again faster than normal. You can towel dry the cage and items if you want to hurry the process up. Leaving the cage in the sun can help it dry faster. Sunlight can also help to disinfect the cage, due to its UV light rays. Once everything has been disinfected, cleaned, and allowed time to dry you can reassemble your hamster's cage. Do a final check as you place items in the cage to make sure they are fully cleaned. Place fresh, clean bedding in the cage first. Put any toys or exercise equipment back in the cage, on top of the bedding. Add fresh food and water to your hamster's bowls or dispensers and place them back in the cage. Place your hamster back in the cage and allow it time to adjust and relax before interacting with it again. Try giving it a few hours to get used to the cage again before interacting with it.

After you clean the cage mark the date down and schedule the next cleaning exactly one week later. Regular cleaning of your hamster's cage is necessary. Clean the cage fully at least once a week. Marking down the cleaning schedule on a calendar can help serve as a reminder. Once a week, you will want to fully clean your hamster's cage.

Q: Start off by weighing yourself so you can track your progress. How many pounds do you want to lose? Keep in mind that an average person in middle, high school loses 2 pounds per week maximum. Once you've figured out your target weight and how many pounds you'd like to lose, figure out how long you have to lose the pounds, and start thinking about specific goals. Your goals need to be (1) specific; (2) attainable (doable); and (3) forgiving (less than perfect). In other words, "lose weight" is not a good goal because it's not specific. "lose 30 lbs in 10 days" is not a good goal because it's not attainable. "Exercise for 3 hours every day" is not a good goal because it's not forgiving. You want your goals to be something like, "Exercise 5 days a week, with the goal of losing 2 lbs a week." That leaves a little wiggle room to keep you on track. . The fact of the matter is that going low-calorie is not effective for everyone. That and it's hard. Do it for a week and you may end up breaking down, binging on everything in sight. Would low-carb be easier? How about just cutting out desserts? Picking up a vegetarian diet? Science is starting to suggest that eating right and exercise isn't everything. It's also about how your body is made up. Put two people on the same diet and they're going to have different results. So don't stress about trying to fit someone else's box of what a diet really is concentrate on what you think will work for you. Once you figure out what you need to lose, the second step is to figure out how to lose it. Will you be focused on your diet? What kind of diet? And what about exercise? Create a basic plan detailing your exercise schedule and your diet regimen. An example of an exercise schedule could be "Monday: 30 min. cardio, 10 min. stretching/yoga, 20 min. strength/toning exercises; Tuesday: 20 min. light cardio and walking; Wednesday: rest; Thursday: 20 min. light cardio and walking, 20 min. strength training; Friday: 20 min stretching/yoga, 30 min. cardio. And don't forget that activities like swimming and dancing count, too. Everything is easier with a friend. Not only do they keep your spirits up, but they hold you accountable. When your friend is sitting there, eating a salad and some fruit and about to go for a walk, you'll be less likely to chow down on half a pizza and then take a nap. What's more, you'll have someone to bond with over the woes of weight loss. Practically everyone is "dieting" in some form or another nowadays. Just ask your friends who'd like to lose a few pounds with you and watch their arms shoot up. You are not alone in your battle, that's for sure. Technology is great for tracking your weight loss; you can use an app on your phone or other mobile device like "MyNetDiary" to keep you going. When you see how far you've come, you'll be motivated to keep going. Try to weigh yourself once or twice a week, but not obsessively. You will aggravate yourself too much and risk giving up in frustration.
