Bread. Pasta. Rice. If you're trying to lose weight, you probably think these are absolutely off-limits. But the truth is, you need these types of carbohydrate-rich foods to give your body energy. And not getting enough carbs can make you feel sluggish, irritable and unable to concentrate.

For women, it's more about the level of satisfaction in her relationship; if a woman is unhappy in her marriage, she's 2.6 times more likely to cheat. Regardless of the reason, there's one thing that's certain: infidelity is devastating. But there can be a silver lining. "In many cases, it forces issues to the surface of a relationship that would have never otherwise been dealt with," says Kevin Hansen, author of Secret Regrets: What if You Had a Second Chance? Read on to discover what life lessons these five women gained through their personal experiences with infidelity-and what you can learn from their

In reality, men are also impacted by the disease, whether it's their spouse, sibling, relative or friend who's battling it. To learn more about what it's like for the opposite sex, we spoke with five men who became advocates for the cause. As supporters and co-survivors (the term for anyone who's supported a person through a breast cancer diagnosis), these men made it their mission to get the word out and help others support the women in their lives. From blogging to launching organizations dedicated to the cause, here are their stories.
