Healthy happy you.
When you first start dating someone, I love the little affections you begin to show. Gazing into each other's eyes, smiling uncontrollably, playing with each other's hair, and hugging good-bye. As you feel more comfortable, the next step is either holding hands or sharing your first kiss. To some people, one is more intimate than the other, so when you first start seeing someone, which comes Read more
There might be at least 10 surprising health benefits of sex, but unfortunately stress can dampen any woman's mood to get it on. And the holidays are a stressful time. With the economy on a roller coaster, I would say the stress ante has been upped. Scientists have found that stress causes hormonal changes that deplete testosterone levels, the sex-drive hormone (think teenage boy), and the libido Read more
Have you cooked, eaten, or spotted something mouthwatering recently? If so, then don't let anything hold you back from sharing it with the rest of us: we want to feast with our eyes too. On a recent trip to Chicago, I hit up one of my favorite Mexican restaurants, Big Star, for some south-of-the-border sustenance and wound up ordering their queso fundido, a platter of melted, pungent, cheesy Read more
30 Rock's season finale aired last week, and it's official that the next season will be its last. We caught up with Jane Krakowski, who plays Jenna Maroney, the narcissistic actress engaged to her male impersonator. In addition to her work on 30 Rock, Jane's using her comedic talent for Best Night Ever, an upcoming vignette series for NBC. She'll star alongside Andy Cohen and Giuliana Rancic. We Read more
After all the anticipation leading up to Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson's big Breaking Dawn Part 1 sex scene (which was so hot it had to be taken down a notch for its PG-13 rating), Kristen is jumping headfirst into more steamy roles. In her latest flick, On the Road, which just debuted today at Cannes, she really pushes the sexual boundaries. In the movie, Kristen goes topless, has a Read more
We are pumped to share one of our favorite stories from Self here on FitSugar! Barre classes may make you easy on the eyes, but at $20 or more a pop, they're definitely not easy on the wallet. Rather than take a second job to pay for our latest fitness addiction, we turned to Beverly Hill-based Cardio Barre instructor Stacey Bosworth to get the inside scoop on scoring a long, lean dancer's body Read more
I was lucky enough to take a class taught by Manhattan-based yoga teacher Kristin McGee right here in San Francisco! Although one busy lady, Kristin traveled across the country to teach Vinyasa Vibes (a new offering at The Sports Club/LA), a flow-based, powerful yoga sequence enhanced by music. The most musical part of the practice? During Savasana, the class culminated in a live sax solo by Read more
Week two on The Bachelorette brought plenty of action, and I'm not just talking about the chemistry between Emily and Kermit — though that was slightly uncomfortable. No, I'm referring to the first one-on-one dates, the first group date, and all the poolside drama. It looks like we've got a veritable Real Housewives of Charlotte on our hands, only in this case the housewives are men and Botox Read more
Gemini isn't just one of the funnest roller coasters ever (Cedar Point for the win), but it also happens to be the third sign of the zodiac. Personality-wise, Geminis are known for their sharp wit and curious natures. And seeing that they're the sign of the twins, Geminis are therefore known for being dual-natured and complex. Think versatility and the ability to change direction to adapt to a Read more
Do you have what it takes to buy a home? Consider this exhaustive guide from Kiplinger. Tired of renting? It could be a great time to buy your first home. In many cities, home prices have bottomed, and rents have risen. Mortgage rates are still superlow. In fact, homes haven't been as affordable since 1971. On the downside, in many cities, buyers have fewer homes from which to choose and more Read more
