Women’s Health Magazine
In my “quest” to be my physical best (while still having a life/enjoying an occasional dessert/etc.), I’ve come across a variety of books, magazines, DVDs, etc. One of those magazines that I really like is Women’s Health Magazine. The July/August issue is a really great mix of articles. My favorites:
-Take Your Licks is about the best “icy treats” (ice cream, fruit bars, sorbets, etc.) that are 160 calories or less. You can also see the winners online here.
-On the environmental side, Deforest Your Life gives 22 things to do in order to recycle your unwanted items (the proper way!) that you can read here.
-Women’s Health is also holding an “Ultimate Beauty” daily giveaway contest throughout July and August with prizes from MAC, Goody, Aveda and more.
And lastly,
-If you live in the NYC or the Chicago areas, you might want to check out their (free admission/open to the public) “Are Your Game” events. There will be workouts, fashion, beauty makeovers and more. They’re coming to NYC on 7/12 (this Saturday) and Chicago on 7/19/08. See their site for the full details.
(On another note, I was starting to wonder how magazines stay in business when so many of their articles are available online for free. I guess, it’s because of people like me – reading online is great but I don’t want to lug my computer with me everywhere that I read — the subway, the bathroom, wherever I can get a few free moments….).
I am a magazineaholic. I get every free subscription I can. I’ve noticed a lot of the popular magazines don’t include the entire article online or have different information than what’s published. I’m like you, though, I like to carry around a good ol’ fashioned slick-paged magazine!
