Do you think once President, Obama will pardon Resko and Blago?

Obama would not do this as this would be showing partiality..and that would send the wrong message to the folks in the USA and abroad

BPA - I can't believe where I am finding it!!?

There definitely are good reasons to be concerned about your baby ingesting BPA (there are several interesting studies that have been published looking at the effects in animals). And I would definitely agree that to limit her exposure as much as possible is a good idea (BPA hasn't always been around my parents fed me from gl baby food jars, and gl feeding bottles). I wouldn't completely overreact though to the point of throwing out your OJ containers though, but it is a good idea to limit exposure when you can. The safest route to take is to use gl containers (which are inert). I myself even worry about the drop in bags because of the plastic softeners (I will admit I could be overly cautious here though). I would double check the literature but from what I remember reading BPA is most likely to leech out when the container is heated, or in contact with acids (like when it's used in the lining of cans of tomatoes for example) so I wouldn't worry about things like your plastic ware. I hope this helps. People will always say well people are overreacting and everything is toxic, but things are also quite different then they were 20 years ago and the cancer rates are rising even though we have improved preventative care so you have to wonder what we're exposing ourselves to.

Will taking a break from a diet due to a prolonged (3-4 week) plateau result in weight loss after that week?

Don't weigh yourself every day. In the morning you will always weigh less than you do at night. Doing this will discourage you and think something is wrong when it is not. Weigh yourself once a week after you wake up. Also, your basal metabolic rate is 1700, you should have a net calories of 1200 to lose weight. This can mean either eat 1200 calories a day and don't exercise, or do the recommended method of eating 1700 calories and burning 500 through exercise. Either way, your net total for the day should be about 1200, give or take. Looking at this, you are eating 1300-1400 calories a day along with exercise, you are having a net total of 750 for days when you burn 650 through exercise. This is way way too low. When you don't eat enough, your body thinks its starving and will not dig into a deeper hole if it loses more weight. If you are burning 650 calories through exercise, then for that day you should be eating 1850 calories to get your net total of 1200. After 2-3 weeks if you notice your weight is the same, then you should make some changes like decrease calories or increase your exercise. Anyways email me if you have more questions.
