    Facial Moisturizers w/self tan (or whatever the wording is!)

    I used to use the Clarins moisturizer tanning milk-- they have light and dark (but its really not that dark)-- I loved it. If you go to the counter they'll likely give you a sample. You always want to make sur eyou exfoliate before using any tanning products on your face though :)

    Eating after 7pm make a difference?

    Yeah I agree its mostly a myth-- but like most myths, its based very loosly on something that, at some point in the past, made sense to some people for a situation they had.. err.. make sense? Well that's about how seriously we can take myth lol! To 'not eat past 7' is mostly for people that...

    Question for figure/fitness competitors

    Hey there - The diet is definitly the hardest part! Its actually the only real thing that matters. Lifting just depends on what federation you're entering, for how much/little muscle you need. Some women can get away with a lot in their prep, being an endomorph however, I cannot. A good...

    What does your gym membership cost?

    I agree that the cost depends largly on the area.. It also depends largly on the type of gym.. I've had a $99/year, a $300/year and a $1500/year memberships.. they were all very different. The cheapest one was a meathouse filled with high school boys. The middle one was local smalle-town...

    How old is TOO old?

    Have you seen the age of the average Vet? Sometimes it takes more grounded people to be able to deal with sick animals like that (goddess knows I couldn't do it!) There's NOTHING old about mid 30's girl! Most people go through a career change around that time anyway, I expect I will around 40...
