3 More Ways to Make Halloween a Li'l Healthier

No one’s saying you have to skip the candy completely (well, maybe your dentist), but we’ve got a few ways make sure Halloween isn’t totally scary for your healthy-girl routine.


Get in an extra workout.
Before you go trick-or-treating or to a Halloween bash, get in a serious sweat sesh. Sure, you might have some last-minute costume alterations, but you’ll feel a lot better if you stop making excuses and lace up those sneakers. Since this spooky day falls on a weekend, you’ve got plenty of time to exercise for at least an hour before you’ve gotta dash.

Remember: there’s more out there than Snickers bars.
When you’re surrounded by candy, cupcakes and cookies, it’s easy to forget about all the healthy treats out there. But your fridge is likely still stocked with lots of other healthy foods, so dig in. If you’re going to a party, be the girl who brings along awesome cut fruit and some yogurt for dip. Or hit up the sliced carrots before you nosh on the not-so-healthy snacks.


Brush up (totally) before bed.
With all that sugar, taking care of your teeth is key. Don’t forget to rinse, floss and even brush your tongue. Before you say “ew” think about this: it’ll remove plaque and bacteria, which can build up while you’re asleep, and prevent cavities and icky bad breath, according to Dr. Smigel. Don’t let sweets destroy your pearly whites.

Hey, this is kinda strange but I was wondering...are there any workouts I can do to get rid of, or slim down, my "love handles"? (The fat that sits above your hips) I really hate mine. Thanks Smile




Hey girl,

Best thing for the "love handle"/hip area is cardio. Go out for a jog, start kickboxing, or go for a brisk bike ride regularly and you'll definitely feel better!

I wish I could go trick or treating, but I don't want to be arrested. o_O I just found out its against the law to trick or treat over age twelve in some places.

please help!
okay, so today my friends said that i was under weight, and i know im not, so i told them i don't and everything, but they said i look it. im am really skinny, but i eat a lot and just have a really fast metabolism!!! what can i do? its really bugging me and always has?
thanks.




Hey girl, just don't sweat it. Ignore the remarks and just stick to exercising and eating a balance diet, i.e. take care of yourself. Someday you'll find that metabolism is a blessing.

Hey girl, why not ask your mom if she has any '80s clothes saved or if one of your relatives do? If they have some saved, your costume could be free!
