Im matt lauer alongside Savannah Guthrie, al roker and natalie morales. The gang is back together in a long time for a really long time. Not since last year. That old thing . Ive never heard that. Two, three weeks, though. Really. Everybody have nice trips . Yeah. Reporter only natalie got slightly injured. Little skiing accident. You should see the other guy. Thats a good one.

Good morning to you. Good morning, matt. Two members of his National Security team today, new cia director and, of course, a new secretary of defense. John brennan, the president s chief counterterrorism adviser in the west wing. Its actually a post brennan has wanted for years and now is going to get it. As for defense, this is the third time the president has had to fill an opening at the pentagon. For the second time, his choice is a republican. This time its former senator chuck hagel, which is already touching off a big political fight. Before chuck hagel can take over at the pentagon, he must be confirmed by the senate and hes already facing an uphill battle. Even though democrats control the senate, nbc news has learn ed as many as 10 Democratic Senators could vote against hagel. Public publicly, leading democrats have not expressed much support. I would have to study his record. As a republican, he may find support from his old republican colleagues to come by. There will be a lot of tough questions of senator hagel, but he will be treated fairly. Reporter he became known as a thorn in the side of republicans turning against the iraq war in 2007. Most divisive since vietnam. I have served with chuck hagel. I know him. He is a patriot. Reporter after once referring to certain proisraeli groups as a, quote, jewishlami. This is an in your face nomination from the president to those of us who are supportive of israel. Reporter openly gay nominee who chuck hagel called openly grifsly gay. And barney frank, who may end up as a temporary senator during the confirmation hearings says i cannot think of any other Minority Group in the u. S. Today where such a negative statement in 1998 would not be an obstacle. A defense secretary who wore the uniform and who will be comfortable standing up to the generals. And debate with those generals over afghanistan troop levels became quite contentious in 2010. In a new book, the president s former afghanistan commander, general Stanley Mcchrystal noted what he called the emergence of an unfortunate deficit of trust between the white house and the department of defense. The president will make these nominations formal after lunch today, matt. Initial choice for cia before he actually even took the oath of office, but a lot of groups on the left were upset with brennans positions on torture at the time. Those are things that brennan has since cleared up. Matt . Chuck todd in washington this morning. Thank you very much. Retired general Stanley Mcchrystal was the Top Commander in afghanistan three years ago. He resigned after a controversial profile in Rolling Stone magazine where he and his advisers were quoted making some disparaging remarks about the president. Now he is breaking his silence about that and other things in his memoir called my share of the task. General, always good to see you. Nice having you here. Thanks, matt. Chuck hagel, is he qualified for secretary of defense . Let me first hijack the the show and wish my wife, annie, happy birthday. Good move. I think senator hagel has the experience. He certainly has the quality as a person. The real matter is whether the president has that level of trust. Outspoken stance against the war in iraq, comments about israel and israels influence over congress, are those disqualifiers . I dont think so. You have to predict the future. Theyre going to face very complex problems which we cant predict. That level of trust and relationship between those people and with other members of the cabinet are the most important. Not to put you on the spot, is there another name that jumps out . Is there someone that you would have turned to immediately that you would vote for . No. Okay. Just thought i would try it. You have a quote in your memoir, as you were dealing with the situation in afghanistan there was an emergence of an ununfortunate deficit of trust between the white house and the department of defense. Was that distrust a twoway street . Yes. I outline in a fair amount of detail, its about leadership. Thats what im passionate about. Building trust takes time. And its the essential ingredient of ever solving difficult things, whether its a marriage, educating kids, fighting a war. You have to build trust between people and organizations. Did you distrust the people at the white house . Did you distrust key members of the Obama Administration when it came to their policy in dealing with afghanistan . I think whats most important is we spent a lot of timesharing information to try to build trust. Trust kochl comes with time, wi cooperation and with compromise. I think thats what we worked through. With all due respect, you didnt answer my question. Did you distrust key members of the administration in with respect to their handling of the war in afghanistan . Yeah. I still believe that the most important thing we can do is build that trust. Over time thats youre being a good soldier he here. I want to take you back to the Rolling Stone magazine that led to your resignation from your post. There were several demeaning comments attributed to your Staff Members and even to you. Was that article accurate . Was that the way you and your Staff Members felt about those people . Its interesting. In my book i outline that in about a page and a half in a 400page book because thats the level of its importance. There was a lot of things in leadership i dealt with. What i would say is most important is the positive things. I dont think we need another book where we are finger pointing. Were the quotes in that Rolling Stone article that were attributed to your Staff Members and you accurate . Otherwise you should be coming out against Rolling Stone magazine. Were they accurate . The most important thing is thats past. I accepted responsibility. I was in command. And as youre in command youre responsible for everything bad that happens and everything good and i respect that. Of the president , one of your Staff Members said this about your first meeting with him where they said he didnt seem to be very engaged. The boss was pretty disappointed. One staffer called him a clown. On the American Ambassador to afghanistan, carl ikenberry, you were attributed saying he wanted to cover his flank for the history books because he well, as i outlined in the book, i try 0 to get into the big picture. And so what i tried to do was show the holistic relationship with people and in general it was very good. The last meeting you had with the president when he accepted your resignation, did he demand it or simply accept it . I walked into the room with the resignation in my pocket. I offered the president my resignation, but i said i would do whatever was best for the mission. Was there part of you that wanted him not to accept it . Did you want to stay in the job . I wanted to stay in the job but i wanted to do what was best for the mission. I felt whatever the president felt was best for the mission was what i needed to do. So i was happy to go with whatever decision let me be a fly on the wall. Was he furious about what had come out in that Rolling Stone magazine . Did he express his displeasure with you . What was said between the president and i in the oval office really needs to be between us. It was very professional. We had a Good Relationship before that and i think we still have a Good Relationship. He said this, war is bigger than any one man or woman, whether a private, a jep, or a president. And as difficult as it is to lose general mcchrystal i believe its the right strategy for our National Security. The conduct represented in the recently published article does not meet the standard that should be set by a commanding general. It undermines the civilian control of the military that is at the core of our democratic system. Do you agree with that . The president s statement that war is bigger than any single individual is absolutely correct. So when i accepted responsibility, i felt it was important that i do what, as a commander, is best for the mission at that time. Im very comfortable with that. You said this, this is your quote. The best leaders are genuine and walk a fine line between selfcan confidence and humility. When you graduated from west point you wondered if you would turn out to be the kind of military leader that you admired. Did you . I think you work on that every day. I think there are days when i did very well and there are days when i didnt. But the key is on the days when you didnt, dont let that become the new standard. Push yourself back up to where you know you ought to be every single time. Any regrets . Not really. General Stanley Mcchrystal, general, its nice to see you. Thank you, matt. The book is called my share of the task. Natalie is back over at the news desk. Natalie, good morning. Good morning again, matt. Good morning, everyone.

In aurora, colorado, still reeling from last years theater massacre, another deadly attack this weekend. Authorities say a gunman killed three people in a home before firing at police. The suspect has been hit and is pronounced dead. Reporter more long lines at gun shows but in newtown, less than a month after the School Shootings there, the decision to hold a gun collector show this weekend was met with mixed opinions.

Stiffer penalties for carrying guns near schools or giving them to minors and stronger Mental Health and background checks.

This is a very emotional time in this town of some 18,000 people where High School Football is a very big deal.

With more and more ways to be well every day, here. At the corner of happy and healthy. Back now at 7 43. We are just one week into the new year. Some of you may be thinking about giving up your resolution to lose weight. How do you make dieting easier and more fun . Dr. Mehmet oz, host of the dr. Oz show, is here. This year were bringing alive mr. Fat pants. This is his busy season. I know ms. Fat pants. Miss stretch wear. There they are right there. To get folks to realize they dont have to beat themselves up. There are simple, easy things to do, even in the busy time of year, which it is for mr. Fat pants, to get you back to the weight you want. I love that we have chocolate and donuts here. Shed weight with food confusion. Body builders have taught us that you can use muscle c confusion to build up bigger biceps. It basically means cross train. It works with food also. Really . A lot of folks will do the same exact diet plan every day. You dont want to do that. Every third day, eat some simple carbohydrates, foods that maybe arent good for. Is that where my donut comes in . You dont want to gup the whole donut down but take a piece of it or someone elses. Big glass of water. Wash the taste away. The reason thats important, little bit of sugar chocolate is a better option because it has flavenoids in it. You burn away calories more rapidly. Dont eat the whole donut. The first bite is the best bite. The second bite a little less tasty, the third bite a lot less tasty. After a bite or two, get rid of that by washing it away. Avoid food addiction. A lot of people think that growling stomach, headaches, lightheadedness, thats all hunger. Its not. Its a withdrawal sign from foods you shouldnt have been eating. I put two classic examples of this. Classic hunger is in the belly. True hunger is up in the chest and head area. Really . Next time you think youre hungry and dont have a little discomfort in your chest or neck, its not true hunger. That aching will go away and true hunger will come later. You could literally get addicted to foods like this . No question that things, like wheat products, are very addictive. They dont understand how thin people stay thin. They stay thin by avoiding foods that are addictive. Tell us about this plan. Its the best experts in the world. Who is better than the best trainers in the world . The ones on the biggest loser. They brought me the 4321 plan. Four servings a day of fruits and vegetables. I particularly added pomegranaten to the list. Its in season right now. Open the pomegranate under water. You can freeze them as well. Squash is a great replacement for potatoes.

Back now at 8 10 with a story about a horrific crime and the remarkable power of forgiveness. In a moment well talk to two stories devastated by an unthinkable tragedy, who came together to heal. First with the story here is nbcs mark potter. Reporter the crime took place march 28th, 2010, date 19yearold Connor Mcbride walked into a Tallahassee Police station. Officials say he told the duty officer, you need to arrest me. I just shot my fiancee in the head. The story begans a love story between connor and ann margaret gromere, both students at the high school. Their families became close as they fell in love. But there was an underlying anger. We all have had relationships where we would rather sort of push things under the rug rather than confront difficult issues and i think thats what happened with connor and ann. A twoday fight between the couple escalated until connor, who says he wasnt thinking straight, got his fathers shotgun, pointed it at ann and, in one horrifying moment, shot her. Four days later, ann was removed from life support and connor was charged with firstdegree murder. But rather than let connor be locked up for life, the parents decided to try a concept called restorative justice, where both families, including connor, sit face to face as part of a healing process. To have people sit down at the table and be able to engage in this dialogue, its so human. Reporter the prosecutor, jack campbell, had never heard of restorative justice. Because of the unusual circumstances, decided to try it. The families wanted no more than 15 years for connor. Campbell offered 20. Far less than in similar cases. The gromeres found this process through their faith and experience to be cathartic, helpful in their heal iing. This may be one way to help a parent but its certainly not a fixall tool. Reporter two families trying to come to grips s with a devastating tragedy through forgiveness. Mark potter, nbc news, miami. Along with connors parents, mike and julie mcbride, joining us from florida. This is about radical forgiveness. To be clear, you came to this not after some long passage of time, but in those excruciating moments when your daughter was on life support. What happened . How is it that you decided to forgive . Well, its a process for that week. I went through and, you know, i felt like my daughter was asking me to forgive connor and i just told her i couldnt and there was no way that i could. At the end i said, well, ill try. And later on in that week on thursday, i really felt like my daughter was joined with christ and that he and her were asking me to forgive. And i just never had said no before to them and i wasnt going to say no this time. It was just an uplifting of joy and peace. Kate, this is something that you said took you a little bit longer. Yet in that first week you went and visited connor, a boy you knew very well, in jail. What was that like . I was very nervous going, because andy had told me the night before that he wanted his message to connor to be that he loved him and he forgave him. And i wanted to take that same message to connor, but i just wasnt sure i was going to be able to say those words when i saw him face to face. I had talked during the week, i had told connors parents i could not judge connor by that moment because if i did, then i was defining ann by that moment as well. Simply as a murder victim and she was so much more than that. So through the nerves, i went up to visit him. And the first thing he did was, you know, he cried and said how sorry he was. I told him, you know, mr. Grosmaire loves you and forgives you and i said, you know, i love you and i forgive you. Some people think this is easy, forgiveness. Clearly you are still angry at your daughters killer. Really, not really. Im sad, you know. Were not offering a pardon to him, but it frees us. The forgiveness frees us. It keeps us from going to prison with connor. Let me bring you in here, michael. One of the first things you did which everyone related to this story. You went straight to the hospital where ann was clinging to life in those moments. That must have been an incredibly terrifying thing to do. Why did you do it and what did it mean . When i left the beach, julie was really worried about me driving in such a state of shock. And she told me she loved me, to drive safely and had the wisdom to say go to the hospital. So on the ride home, i didnt really have any vision of what the hospital would be like. I didnt think about what i would say or do. And i definitely didnt consider the reception that i might encounter. I just knew i had to go. It was the right thing to do. Julie, this is a tragedy for all concerned. What has it meant to you to experience that forgiveness in a moment that i imagine for you was full of shame and sadness as well. I think were all surprised at the depth of forgiveness we can have. And i think we dont really know what were capable of forgiving until were actually in the situation, whether its a driver cutting you off at a red light or circumstances that are this tragic. But andy and Kate Grosmaire have publicly demonstrated what true forgiveness looks like. I want to talk about this concept of restorative justice. In a sense its an alternative to a criminal trial. You all get in a room, conor included. He tells you what he did. To go through that . It was the hardest thing ive ever done in my life. They say your heart can hurt but that day my heart really hurt. I physically felt like it hurt and it was just very difficult. And the facilitator asked us later that night how do you feel about having forgiven conor . And i said ill have to think about everything he said today and i did consciously tnk about every detail that he gave and challenged myself, is that forgiveness still there . And it was and it still is today. He did not get a light sentence. 20 years. More than you actually had asked for. But it certainly is a significant amount of time. I just want to say, what we had hoped for was if he was going to serve a 20year sentence that ten years of it would have been served in prison and ten years could have been served in the community, working in those areas for things that ann loved. Thank you very much for being here and sharing this story. Andy and Kate Grosmaire, thank you. Mike and julie, we thank you as well. Were back after this.

That was the good one. Excuse me. Yours is a good one, too. But that was wonderful, because alan kept such a dead pan and would do all these things and i used to laugh myself silly. These are fun and theyre silly, but sometimes theyre sillier than they are fun. You bring in a lot of friends and have cohorts here. You also have great comedic timing. Is that something people are born with or do you think you can teach someone comedic timing . Comedy is like music. Its a rhythm. Its hard to teach it to somebody who doesnt have it, you know. They let the beat go too long or they cut it short or they and its just something you sort of feel. And i had a wonderful mother and father. I did great work in choosing parents. They were funny . They were fun. And around the breakfast table or the dinner table, i was an only child and they would set up something and then they would knock it off and it always got to be great fun. I said during the commercial break to betty, do you have a favorite joke, and she said does it have to be clean . And yes, here, it has to be clean. Youre about to turn 91.

Were back now at 8 39 with an eyeopening look at addiction. Nearly 18 million americans suffer from alcoholism or related problems and over 38 million, over the age of just 12 years old, have used drugs illegally in the past year. In fact, Prescription Drug abuse now causes more deaths than heroin and cocaine combined. Sadly, just one in ten with an addiction ever receive treatment. Christopher kennedy knows the struggles of this all too well, has been in recovery for more than 20 years and is author of the new book recover to live and he joins us with his cousin, Patrick Kennedy. Good morning. Good morning. I guess you have the essential credentials to talk about this. You both have struggled with addiction over the years. You, christopher, have struggled really young. It starts young for several folks. I had the desire to stop, had all the resources to stop and it was difficult for me. This book recover to live is for folks that it shouldnt just be for folks that have the resources to kick this. I wanted to give them the tools so they can start the process on their own. When i first did drugs and alcohol i felt at home. I loved it. First four times i did heroin, i became violently ill. What it did to the reward center of my brain was so powerful it never occurred to me not to do it again. Do you think some people are hardwired to be addicts . I do. And the studies they did with rats and how profound these chemicals are on the reward center of the brain. For some folks theyre really powerless not to do them. Patrick, this is something youve talked about openly. You had your own struggle. And sometimes relapse is part of that struggle. How long have you been sober now and how are you doing . Next month it will be two years. It took me leaving my public life to finally get into longterm sobriety. Before, it was stopping and starting, stopping and starting. Thats the case for most people with these illnesses. Theyre chronic illnesses. Meaning they want to stop but they cant stay stopped. The key to this is acknowledging that you have an issue and understanding what that issue is. Chris book really does a great job at bringing the experts to tell us what is the Evidence Base . One of the things chris and i have had access to is good treatment. Most americans, theyre trying to fly in the night in terms of trying to understand whats out there and what is good for them. Chris book recover to live offers good guide posts to get in good treatment. Lets get practical about it. This is the time of year that people want to make a clean break or a fresh start. What is the essential revelation in this book . What can people really take away to help them break the addiction . First of all, this is the best Information Available today, from people that really know this. So if you have an issue with drugs, alcohol, sex, food, gambling. Also the first time, all of these behaviors and substances have been brought into one place. If you have a desire if you think theres harm in your life and you have a desire to change your life, look at this book. It will show you where you are and give you some really good information and ways to change behavior. Such a stigma still around these illnesses. And some people, you know, still look at this and think this is a failure of willpower. They do. Were beginning to understand the brain much better. I started an Organization Called one line for research. The idea is its the brain. We have to understand how behavior is a symptom of bad chemistry in the brain. We blame people for acting poorly, but what was the d derivitation of how they acted . We see these laws that are broadening the legalization for marijuana, sometimes for medical reasons and at least in one case for recreational use. The two most costliest drugs are legal, alcohol and to be alcoh tobacco. What 2013 holds if youre looking to buy or sell a home. First this is today on nbc. Back now at 8 45. Forecast for 2013. Home prices rose, largest gain in seven years. What can we expect this year . Real estate contributor Barbara Corcoran has the inside information. Good to see you. Good morning, matt. Youre optimistic about 2013 in some ways, arent you . In just about every way. Who could not be optimistic . All the signs of the Real Estate Market are saying things have turned around. Weve had 13 months of straight increases in prices. Overall, as you mentioned, prices have gone up almost 8 . We just have gotten past a small portion of the fiscal cliff. We know that taxes are going up on the wealthier americans. Do you think thats going to have any impact on the Housing Market . Of course, particularly the Capital Gains tax, whether that happens or not remains to be seen. It was supposed to happen already and hasnt. It certainly will affect the third secondary home market. People will rush their homes to the market to avoid any Capital Gains. When you look back at 2012 and now ahead to 2013, talk to me about certain regions that are hot or not. And even certain cities. Definitely. Certainly the one region that leads the parade is the west from seattle to San Francisco to l. A. 20 of an increase in one year alone. Thats mind boggling. No one saw that thing coming. The only part of the country that hasnt turned the corner yet is the northeast. Its just about ready to do that. You think it will pop in the year ahead . Its already starting to change. Let me go through a laundry list of things that are so vital to the Housing Market. Mortgage rates. People think its a godgiven right, mortgainterest rates. We should have a neutral climate going into the new year. Will conditions to borrow get better . You put a finger on what is wrong with the financing market. You need tremendous fico scores. The average person turned down had a 720 score. What do you see happening with foreclosures . Theyve been diminishing for two years straight. Its not a problem thats gone. But its given people a lot of bargains that you just cant get anymore. These are tips for people it both trying to buy a home and sell a home. Lets start with the buyers. One of the things you have to do is buy the house that will always sell first. Do you know why . The house with the sunshine, with the school district, the house on the best block always sells better in good markets and bad markets. Be sure of what youre buying. Go shopping with your financing in hand. Of course. Theres nothing more powerful than being a buyer who says im an allcash buyer, already got that money from the bank. Boy, can you negotiate hard when you have that card in hand. It prevents you from finding a house you like and going in to negotiate the mortgage. Lock in that rate. Have it in hand. Thats the power tool. Lets talk about the people now who are out there, trying to sell a home . A lot of people have been trying to sell that house for a long time. Get your house inspected before you put it on the market. For 300, you can have your house inspection. Why is that important . When the buyer buys your house after they sign the contract will have it inspected and appraised. Pay for the appraisal and the inspection and youll have no surprises and the deal will actually close. Looking for potential buyers, you like for them to go for an allcash deal or someone who has a mortgage commitment . Of course. All you have in hand, matt, is a maybe. If you have a buyer and a contract, you feel good about it. If they dont have the financing, all you have is a maybe sale. Jobs market out there, will that have an impact . Certainly when someone is worried about their job or cant get a job last thing they do is go out and buy a house. As always, great information. My pleasure, matt. Appreciate it. Is your job one of the most stressful or stress free in the country . Theres a stressfree job. Take off the Christmas Lights on the Rockefeller Center tree. Unless, of course, something happens. Then theres a lot of st good morning wow. Want to start the day with something heart healthy and delicious . Youre a talking bee. Honey nut cheerios has whole grain oats that can help lower cholesterol. And it tastes good . Sure does right. Wow. Delicious, right . Yeah. Its the honey, it makes it taste so. Well, would you look at the time. Whats the rush . Be happy. Be healthy. And were back at 8 51 with the least and most stressful jobs of 2012. You may be surprised at some of their results. Here to talk about it is the arthur of the Encore Career handbook, marcie. Talk about their methodology, how did they determine what was a stressful job and not a stressful job . I was very pleased that they saw pu putting yourself or others in danger, like life endangerment stressful. Very important . That was high stress. Deadlines. Opportunities for advancement, competitiveness were all kind of high stress factors. The number one job to be least stressful in the field of education, University Professor . Yes. At least some version. That made me scratch my head a little bit and also got to one of the fundamental questions of a survey like this. It depends on the environment youre working in, are you up for tenure, what are your colleagues like . With those factors in play, stress levels can vary. Thats the dangers of a study like this. Seamstress was right behind at number two. Thats surprising. That gets to the issue of how many people are going to make their career decision based on the stress factor of a job, stress level of a job . We should ask that question, too. Health care areas in there, like medical laboratory, audit yol auditologist. A lot of Job Opportunities in these less stressful jobs are in health care. But i did notice a lot of those jobs weren front line Crisis Health care jobs. They were administrative jobs, support jobs and jobs that if you want to make a difference in the world and you want to help and a lot of people want that in their next career, those are good areas to look at. Theyre high growth. I was happy to see that on the list. Ill take it. Lets focus on one of the most stressful jobs. Not surprisingly, time and time again, military jobs are at the top of the list. Sure. That leads to another point. I agree those are highstress jobs, same as emergency room workers. That said people who are drawn to that work really thrive in those environments and we need people to do that kind of work. It really comes down to self awareness. Are you looking for a job thats one of these high stress jobs and are you cut out for that kind of work . Those are the bigger questions to ask ourselves. Its a stressful job. Maybe if youre suited to it you dont feel that stress in the same way . People that are willing to do that work. Firefighters, commercial airline pilot, Police Officer on the list. We dont necessarily as a society compensate the most stressful jobs exactly. In the same way. Right. And we dont teaching can be really stressful also. Not highly compensated. There isnt always a matchup like that. The police and firefighter really made me think of it. Geography has a lot to do with it. Being a new york city Police Officer can be a lot more stressful than being, you know, a cop in des moines, iowa. Its kind of funny. In their top ten they had public relations, newspaper, journal reporter very high ranking, even higher than a Police Officer. What gives . We know that media comes with a lot of pressures of their own. As my husband said to me when i went to work this morning, you know, you were just stress out when you were in the media as when you moved to a nonprofit so i think some of this is what you bring to it. Some of us are naturally stressed out. Marci albohzer, thank you very much. Thank you. Girard depardieux, an official russian citizen. He didnt want to pay the taxes. Well get into that.

Shes sort of sexy bombshell meets the girl next door, constantly in hair and makeup, whether shes in movies, now on broadway. She never goes to bed with her makeup on.

She takes whatever she has in her freezer, youll see her laying there with peas. She has that regular skin. Which, by the way, works. Anything chilled, a cucumber, bag of peas or carrots, reduces inflammation. Simplest thing people can do to get gorgeous, radiant complexions is to eat bright orange and dark green produce. Spinach, kale and swiss chard and also carrots and oranges and pumpkin. Beta carotene acts like natures exfoliant, gets rid of the old skin cells. If you want beautiful skin, two handfuls of carrots a day. It could be raw, roasted. It works. She drinks a lot of water apparently. Yes, stay hydrated. On to sofia vagara and her gorgeous hair.

Now this is mostly her own hair. Sometimes she has extensions but mostly she wears it up and down. She does not believe in a natural look unless youre giselle. She says go glam, do what you need to do. She eats very healthy. She never deprives herself of anything and eats a lot of water. Luscious locks, everybody thats listening, its all about iron. Iron helps to circulate oxygen all over your body but also to your hair follicles which will stimulate growth. Some of those foods are oysters, clams, lean red meat, beans, lentils and spinach. Sow anyone out there looking for a hair rx, one cup of spinach a day and add a couple of table spoons of beans, chick peas, into salads, soups and even pasta entrees.

My doctor diagnosed it as fibromyalgia, thought to be the result of overactive nerves that cause chronic widespread pain. Lyrica is believed to calm these nerves. I learned lyrica can provide significant relief from fibromyalgia pain. And for some people, it can work in as early as the first week of treatment. So now i can do more of the things that i enjoy. Lyrica is not for everyone. Lyrica may cause serious allergic reactions or suicidal thoughts or actions. Tell your doctor right away if you have these, new or worsening depression, or unusual changes in mood or behavior, or any swelling or affected breathing or skin, or changes in eyesight, including blurry vision or muscle pain with fever or tired feeling. Common side effects are dizziness, sleepiness, weight gain, and swelling of hands, legs and feet. Dont drink alcohol while taking lyrica. Dont drive or use machinery until you know how lyrica affects you. With less pain, im feeling better now that ive found lyrica. Ask your doctor if lyrica is right for your fibromyalgia pain.

Justin biebers scandalous party pics to Bethenny Frankels divorce. The always naughty but nice Huffington Post columnist rob has all the gossip. Hello to you, darling. We open the papers today, and we saw some pictures of dina lohan, lindsays mom from a long time ago. Theres a big scandalous interview that she did today. A big tellall. She actually claims the reason lindsey is messed up, the reason lindsey is the way she is because she witnessed a lot of abuse, a lot of Domestic Abuse when she was young. Weve reached out to Michael Lohan to get his side of the story. He hasnt responded, but he did tell the daily news that this isnt the way that he sees what happened in the past. There are photos of her with some black eyes. Shes the one alleging that first of all, if you are being repeatedly abused, get out and spare your children the sight of that. There are places can you go. The other thing is no matter what happened between them as a couple, she at some point theyre all everybodys family eventually has to take responsibility for their own actions. Correct. Current actions. Dont go club about your kids until 4 00 in the morning. Which she has been doing over the holidays. Today lindsay is in court here in new york about the assault charge allegation that happened here. Some people are wondering bets b whats going to happen. Justin bieber, this was kind of a surprising picture. Theres a photo that tmz had. If you look closely it looks like he is smoking something. Tmz claims he is smoking marijuana in this picture. He is holding something. He is holding something in his hand. Theres no way you can actually tell whats going on here. However, whats nice news is that a couple of days ago justin did a concert in utah, and before the concert he went to a hospital to see a young fan of his that has been battling leukemia for three years and he does not do this because of these pictures. He has been doing this for a long time. He doesnt tell the press about it. The only reason we know is that they took a picture in her hospital room. She put it on facebook. His mom, patty is a dear, dear faithful lady who has raised him under really extraordinary circumstances. Absolutely. He knows whats right and wrong, and he said that he tweeted. Yeah. He is on the right path. We have nothing to worry about there. Bethenny frankel where sfloosh bethenny has filed for divorce just before the holidays. I didnt see that coming, did you . Youre friends with her. You know, i didnt, but i think you dont ever really know what goes on behind someone elses walls. You dont know. Several of her friends say shes doing great. Shes filed for divorce. Shes working on her new show, and hopefully everything will turn out. Her show will be in new york, so at least now her ex jason will get to see the baby because shes not moving to l. A. No one seems to know why . There usually is a reason for two people to break up a marriage. Surprisingly, bethenny has been very silent about this. This is somebody that is really welcomed people into her life in the past. She did a show her talk show is going to be all about her being transparent with people. She will find the moment to tell this story, i guarantee you, and it might be on her show. Wish everybody the best, but its very sad. Certainly do. Hate it when families break up. Honey boo boo. She has some bank. Her mom is trying to do the right thing. I love this story. She might actually be the smartest lady on reality tv. The mother knows this is not going to last forever. There you go. So the money that they get and may not survive it. From tlc, which is rumored to be 15,000 an episode, that money is going straight into a trust for the daughter. The baby bottle. Yeah. Basically she said she doesnt want to be like those she wants to be smarter than all those other reality moms. Its going to be a trust. They cant touch it until theyre 21. Unless they need it for medical reasons. The movie this weekend the Texas Chainsaw Massacre was seriously number one . Seriously number one. Does that upset anybody else as much as me .

We look at that scene, and theres a wall of water coming at you. You actually shot a lot of this in the water. Its not cgi. You didnt make pretend. You were really in the thick of it. What was it like shooting these kind of scenes . Well, yeah, that is me so theres a shot in the film. The camera is under water, and i was diving above the camera. I see. Thats how many times would you have to do just that particular thing just for them to give us an idea . We probably did that about four or five times, butdy it wrong, so i caused them to fly over to barcelona to reshoot it. Whoopsy. It was great. It was really good fun. Were you terrified, tom . Doing that stunt i the first time i did it, i belly flopped. On you got a lot of bruces, right . A lot of cuts and bruces. I have a few scars to show for it.

Here to show us how to do it without doing it too much, you know, doing it overdoing it is Jennifer Miller, founder of Jennifer Miller jewelry and a doll. I love everything you are all decked out in. Thank you, guys. Hello to you. Fashion maven. When i get dressed, i grab whats there. The earrings that are on the table, the bracelet thats nearby. I know. Dont say anything. It usually works out okay. If you think about it, you buy a new pair of shoes, and you think that new pair of shoes goes with everything, but it doesnt. Its the same thing with earrings and a necklace. You cant wear mix it up. Show us what were doing wrong, jennifer. I have some really great tricks. Lets start off with the turtle neck. Sometimes a turtle neck, you dont know what to do with it. This is the before picture, and this is kind of the no. Whats wrong with what this lovely lady is doing in this before picture . Let the turtle neck do what it does. It can be slenderizing and slimming, and the turtle neck can also hide the turkey neck a little bit, if you have ishdz there. What candace has has put on way too many necklaces, big earrings. Weve taken all that off. Yes. Weve given her a classic pair of hoops. Think audrey hepburn. Youll never go wrong. We gave her a classic set of hoops, a diamond accent, and a cuff. Shes ready to go. Let the turtle neck do what it does. Theres no reason to over do. Less is best. Candace, thanks. We all have a vneck, and on the vneck, who knows what the heck to put there because theres lots of open space. Put a big statement necklace, but you say this is a no. This is what she should not be doing. Whats wrong here . Theres a lot of space between here and here. Precious real estate. Right. Shes got a gorgeous decollete, so why not let her friends show a little bit. Let it shine. Let them shine. All right. Now lets look at her. Her decollette is open and shining. Yes. Shes it actually makes her look taller. Slimmer and longer because weve put a long necklace on her. Thats pointing right down to her slim waistline. We know what youre talking about. Fabulous pair of earrings. Looks great. Thank you. Thank you. All right. A lot of people like to dress up in sparkles and stufr, and thats an easy thing to overdo because this is a top or a dress that has this sparkle built in. Yeah. She went a little overboard, you say in this one. She looks a little bit like a Christmas Tree ornament. Too much happening. She bought this dress because it had jewelry built in. Theres no reason i love that. I think thats so pretty. Theres no reason to add sparkle on top of sparkle. Show us the after. What should she do . Uhhuh. Clean it up. Less is more. We gave her a clean pair of silver earrings instead of sparkly earrings. We took off the necklaces. Theres no need for a necklace. The dress has a necklace built in, and we also took off her bracelets because if you look at her wrists, she has cuffs that have sparkles on them. So much better. A gorgeous cocktail ring. Looks good. Adorable. Thanks, hon. We have time for our last lovely lady. Shes a working gal who is trying to mask kind of her belly area. Shes got a belt on. Shes got a necklace on. Shes got drawing attention to it. Cassie just had a baby, and shes going back to work, so in this shot, as you can see, shes wearing a jacket covering everything. Shes wearing a belt because she thinks the belt is bringing her waist in, and shes wearing a necklace thats pointing right to her trouble spot. Show us the after. Look at that. Now were talking. Jacket off. Step away from the belt. There is no reason to wear a belt. I pretty much always take it off after. Look at the necklace. We put it on her face to draw attention to her face rather than pointing attention straight to her troubled area. Lets bring all our lovely ladies out. Thank you, jen. Great advice. I had such a good time. Exactly. We love you, sweetheart. All righty, a woman who wants to show off her best assets. Our newest joy fit club member that lost 110 pounds, but, first, this is today on nbc. I like the way you move time now for another installment of look at me now, i jot fit club zoosh adrian realized she needed make a lifestyle change when she got tired of feeling defeated and wanted to live a fulfilling life. Lets look at her story, which will probably be in hodas income book. Any mi name is adrian crouch. Im a 24yearold girl who used to weigh 230 pounds. I started gaining weight at the tender age of 10. As the numbers went up, my quality of life went down. I was alive, but i wasnt living. I didnt realize my weight was a problem until i was diagnosed with high Blood Pressure at 16 years old. In high school i allowed myself to be bullied into silence. I felt ashamed, worthless, repulsive. I got through the day by painting an obscure smile on my face. I lived behind closed doors and turned to food for comfort. At a whopping 230 pounds i nearly lost all hope until one night in april 2009. I paid close attention to the biggest loser. Because of this show i came to terms with my food addiction. I was inspired, motivated, and more than ready to conquer what seemed like an endless battle. I had to be my own hero. One year later i was 110 pounds lighter and thought that i was automatically destined to lead a happy and healthy life. Shortly after i found myself going too far in the other direction. Chained to the scale, driving myself crazy with numbers and losing all sense of reality. Food was no longer comforting. I was afraid of food until i met a runner in late 2010. I was ultimately convinced to sign up and run my first race and was hooked ever since. Now i can proudly call myself a twotime marathoner and an ultra marathoner. I feel like i was in a coma for 20 plus years and im finally waking up. Were joined now by the leader of the joy fit club, our own joy. This is truly a cinder elia story. She didnt go to her prom. She has blossomed into this beautiful, confident young woman who runs ultra marathons. Thats more than 26 miles. Unbelievable. I have this bracelet. She wore this. It says fearless. She put this on at the beginning of her journey, and she wore it throughout the whole entire journey. Losing more than 100 pounds. Good for her. What did she cut . She really enjoys cooking. I thought this was great takeaway for the viewers. When she uses flour now, instead of one cup of all purpose flour, she uses half a cup of all purpose, half a cup of whole wheat. Does not change the texture. It doesnt . It doesnt. Its great. You go half and half. In temz of oil, if it calls for a cup of oil, you can swap in baked goods natural apple sauce. Instead of one egg, two egg whites. A lot of things. Instead of sour cream, nonfat greek yogurt. Lets bring her out. We have so to see. This is adrians before picture.
