Tip of the Week!


Shop Eclipse Tees at MXM

Are you on "Team Edward" or "Team Jacob"?

This certainly seems to be the year of the vampire! More and more books and movies are being produced about these creatures of the night! And the latest is The Twilight Series - Eclipse!

Whenever a book or movie gains huge popularity, invariably a whole line of merchandise comes out, the most popular being t-shirts. You can't help but notice the trend with the Twilight t-shirts, they are VERY popular right now.

And MXM didn't want the plus-sized world to feel left out, so they've designed their own line of "The Twilight Saga - Eclipse" t-shirts in sizes 14+! No more feeling left out just because you wear a size bigger than a 2!

This new Twilight line goes on sale as of June 10! And in the meantime, MXM is running a great contest where you could win a "Red Carpet Experience" for the movie's opening on June 18! (prize value $500)Click on the H&M ad above to be taken to the site to enter the contest and check out all the great plus-sized options! You can look great this summer!

Stress Fattens You Up


The most direct route is the food-in-mouth syndrome: Stressful circumstances (your bank account, your boss) spark cravings for carbohydrate-rich snack foods, which in turn calm stress hormones. (When researchers in one study took away high-carb food from stressed mice, their stress hormones surged.)

Stress hormones also ramp up fat storage. For our prehistoric ancestors, stress meant drought or approaching tigers, and a rapid-storage process made sense; we needed the extra energy to survive food shortages or do battle. Today we take our stress sitting down˜and the unused calories accumulate in our midsection.

To whittle yourself back down to size, in addition to your usual workout routine, make time for stress relief˜whether it’s a yoga class or quality time with family.

From www.readersdigest.com from an article written by Joanne Chen.
