8 more stupid weight-loss schemes
Self's Diet and Nutrition editor Erin Hobday collaborated with the NY Daily News on eight ridiculous weight-loss products (including the Fuze lip gloss, which I think tastes like dog poo) that will help you lose one thing: your hard-earned cash. Honestly, there are so many ridiculous things on the market *(the Slim Dome much?) that I'm surprised they had the willpower to stop at just eight. Let's take a look at some other doozies, shall we?

Natalie Du Toit makes me feel like an underachiever
In order to qualify for the Olympics in Beijing, South African swimmer Natalie Du Toit needed at least tenth place in a 10K race. It seemed like a daunting task as she got into choppy, rough water with 49 other world class swimmers, but she was the only one with half the leg propulsion. You see,... Read More »

Weetabix's aha moment with Jillian Michaels

Will ANTM have its first plus-size winner? The anticipation is killing us
Aeeeeeeiiieee! I can NOT stand the suspense for tonight's America's Next Top Model finale! It's down to Anya (I'm sure she's a very lovely girl but the dippy sing-songy accent automatically subtracts IQ points), annoying size 0 Fatima, and plus-size Whitney, who is a plus-size... Read More »

Girl-on-girl action: Why we get into b*tch fights with other girls
I don't watch Jackie Warner's Work Out regularly (but I admit, there's something appealing about her, in a bi-curious yeah-I'd-hit-that kind of way) so I totally missed the huge controversy surrounding last week's episode.
