First you start dieting, then you start…smoking?
Yup, it may seem weird, but there has actually been a correlation found between these two habits that are characteristic of many college girls; constant dieting and smoking.
Although smoking rates have gone down in the U.S. (thank God because it’s absolutely disgusting in my opinion), a new study from the University of Florida reports that […]
Get Some Friends…Loneliness is Bad for Your Health
