When taking a study break and making my once-a-month trip to JaneMag.com, I was perplexed to realize I was being re-directed to Glamour.com with a message explaining that Jane Magazine and JaneMag.com were no longer being published, but Glamour could fulfill all my chick magazine needs. For those of you who are up on your chick magazines, you know that Glamour and Jane do not target the same type of woman--Jane is (err, was) a little more alternative without all the bleach and peroxide found in Glamour.
I'm going to particularly miss Jane's health and fitness section which wrote articles in the more "I'm O.K., you're O.K., but we're not O.K." kind of way. They were a little more focused on important health news and fitness articles that harped on embracing your body; Glamour is a little different. I did, however, find an interesting article to prevent gaining a potential beer (or maybe cosmo) belly after my rapidly approaching 21st birthday.
The article features a slide show of calorie-laden cocktails and their comparable healthy counterparts . This way at the bar I'll be well aware that a Cosmo has 251 calories while a Sour-apple martini only has 160 calories, and a Long Island iced tea has 323 calories while a Tequila sunrise has 209 calories. Maybe I'll just stick with light beer. I'm a little shocked; I was assuming girlie drinks had fewer calories than their classically male counterparts. Guess I'll have to keep a watchful eye not only on my alcohol consumption, but also on my caloric intake.
