FITNESS Magazine To the world, today is just November 25. But for most of us, it's the Eve of Overeating Season. According to government stats, we gain an average 0.8 lbs between tomorrow and New Year's. (American adults, on average, gain between 0.4 and 1.8 lbs. every year.)

FITNESS Magazine Black Friday is just around the corner! Before you hop on the mall escalator or elevator, know this: Climbing at least 55 flights of stairs a week reduces your risk of death by 33%. Just think of your gift-stuffed bags as weights! Are you up for the challenge?

First mammos now Paps: Experts are saying women between 21 and 30 should get a Pap test every other year or less, instead of annually. Over 30 with three consecutive negative tests? You can get it done once every three years. What do you think: le...ss to worry about at your next appointment—or more?

Let’s be honest, most of us still wish it was summer: The biggest bonus to higher temps is that we can keep our makeup and fragrance choices on the lighter, super-natural side. But who says that with winter on its way we have to put away our breezy fragrances for heady, intoxicating ones? ...
