Taylor Swift tries her hand at a Kate Gosselin impression…

A court in Indiana recently ruled in favor of an obese employee, forcing the company he works for to pay for a weight loss surgery his doctors say he needs in order for them to operate to fix a back injury he suffered on the job. The company claims they are not responsible for the weight loss surgery as he was over weight before the accident. The ruling has many scared that companies are going to start thinking twice before hiring employees with certain health concerns.

Turns out, publishing your complaints on the Internet isn’t a waste of time after all. CBS is developing a sitcom based on the Twitter feed “Shit My Dad Says” by Justin Halpern.

Okay, I admit, in today’s “carb-cutting” world, I’m a closeted cereal junkie. Well today, I’m exposing that love. For Mix My Granola, of course

I was at Trader Joe’s recently where I watched a cashier patiently dealing with an older woman, who was complaining about the small bruise on her avocado. She was tiny, ancient, and a little mean — and it just got me thinking about THE INEVITABLE: getting older, walking slower, squinting more, having a bony old flat behind, gray hair, menopausal maelstroms, and so on. Sure, I could have written that list to sound a little more respectful, but frankly, watching my body change is gonna freak me out big time.

Dethroned beauty queen Carrie Prejan says that she “was not having sex” in the infamous tape, and she has come out with a new book explaining that the whole debacle is a campaign to silence her views. Check out the interview.

The Body Shop is not only known for their fruity body butters and environmentally friendly products, but they also have a line of lip glosses that have me slightly obsessed as well.

Cocoa Krispies boosts immunity? Not too sure about that…

Turns out the thousands of hours I’ve spent in the gym may have been useless — at least for dropping a few pounds. A new study found that exercising doesn’t necessarily result in losing weight.

When it comes to these models, age is just a silly little number.

As much as I want to hate Taylor Swift, I just can’t. She’s tall and skinny and cute and successful and, well, funny. The earnest 19 year-old hosted and performed on “Saturday Night Live” this weekend. Check out the video!

I’ve been using this product for years. My husband always makes fun of me for it, he calls it my “vagina wash,” but Propoline Mylti-Gyn cleanser is an all-over, hypoallergenic body is made with a woman’s unique PH balance in mind. Check out my review.
