Have you noticed any slight changes in your man’s behavior? Does he say things he has never said before? Well, maybe it’s because he loves you!

Men are very action motivated, they don’t express their feelings verbally. They’d rather make you figure it out on your own. There’s nothing wrong with that, as long as he tells you how he feels at the right time.

Do you ever get butterflies in your stomach when you think about his new motives? You probably feel the same way about him. I know you’ve heard others say that it takes time for men to love their women. That’s true to an extent. Love doesn’t hold any boundaries, it comes when you least expect it to. This strong emotion normally comes about 1 year of dating. If you’ve been with him for only 5 months, then he’s infatuated with you.

The difference between love and infatuation is that love is a more intense feeling. When you’re infatuated with someone, your feelings are a bit different. He may feel like he loves you, but he only cares deeply for you. When a man really loves a woman, he’ll do anything for her. The main hints he’ll throw are very easy to catch.

1. His body language
If you haven’t noticed his body language, pay more attention to it. He’ll begin to walk with poise and wrap his arms around you. I know men do this when they don’t love a woman, but he’ll do it more often if the feelings are there.

2. His grin
He’ll look at you with a big smile and the look in his eyes will change. The eyes do all the communicating for you. His facial expression won’t go away quickly. Gaze into his eyes and you’ll know what I’m talking about.

3. Hyperness
If he’s the calm type, he’ll become more hyperactive around you. I’ve noticed this in my boyfriend. You’ll see this sign if you look closely. Men aren’t hard to read, you have to take the time to read them.

4. The questions he asks you
This is the first sign you should see! If he started asking a lot of questions about you, he loves you. A man won’t ask a woman questions about her if he didn’t love her. His level of interest in you is increasing and he can’t get enough of you. Doesn’t it feel good to be with a man who loves you? The types of questions he asks aren’t important. What’s important is the topic of his questions.

Eating a meal made with "slow-release" carbohydrates, such as oatmeal or bran cereal, before you exercise may help you burn more fat, suggests a recent study in the Journal of Nutrition. Researchers assessed the rate of fat burn among eight healthy women after they ate two breakfasts: muesli with milk, peaches, yogurt and apple juice on one day; cornflakes with skim milk, white bread with margarine and jam and an energy drink on another day. Both meals contained similar amounts of calories. The first breakfast (muesli) was a low-glycemic-index (GI) meal, the second was a high-GI meal. The glycemic index ranks foods based on how much they raise blood sugar. Lower-GI foods produce smaller spikes than higher-GI foods. Generally, foods that contain protein, fat and/or fiber and are digested more slowly fall lower on the GI scale than those that consist mostly of carbohydrate (e.g., white bread). On the days when the women ate the low-GI breakfast, they burned nearly twice as much fat during a 60-minute walk as they did on the days when they ate the high-GI meal. Here’s why: Because the muesli (low-GI) breakfast was more slowly digested, it didn’t spike blood-glucose levels as high as the cornflake (high-GI) breakfast did. In turn, insulin levels didn’t spike as high either which probably explains why the muesli-eating women burned more fat, says Ian MacDonald, Ph.D., director of research at the University of Nottingham Medical School. Insulin plays a role in signaling your body to store fat. So, lower levels of insulin might help you to burn fat. Bottom line: If you’re looking to burn more fat, pick low-GI foods, such as oatmeal, over high-GI foods, such as white toast, before your workout.
