Walking in the Wind
I hate walking in the wind. The best strategy is to walking into the wind at the start of your walk so you can finish with the wind at your back. In high winds, avoid areas with trees or make it an inside-workout day.

Blowing in the Wind?
Do you like feeling the wind in your hair? Or do you prefer nothing above a gentle breeze?

Chocolate Lovers
As many as 40% of women say they crave chocolate (compared with 15% of men) and nothing but chocolate will satisfy it. Some think a deficiency of magnesium leads to the craving. I think it's just because it tastes so good. When the urge comes, watch your portions so as not to get too much of a delicious thing.
