Looking out the window on a day that is filled with sunshine, then turning towards a computer screen that screams nothing but work can either build resentment or character. Taking outside breaks whenever possible can change her attitude whether she's running an errand for her boss or running to se a client. Office water cooler talk revolves around everything from the oil spill to the World Cup. Kids, movies and summer activities always find their way into the conversation. At the office, she's wearing a lot of tan and white, coveting her bleach pen and looking forward to the weekend when she can enjoy the weather instead of being stuck inside on a beautiful day. Sunscreen and hydration should be top of mind, with numerous products to choose from. Consumer Search rated these the top three sunblocks: Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunlock SPF 55, No-Ad Sunblock lotion 45, Banana Boat Sport Performance SPF 30 and Blue Lizard Sunscreen Sensitive. Does she have or need any of these?? Maybe you could hook a sister up! Or rub some on her back.
Right now she could be:
- Working on her tan
- Tending her herb garden
- Checking her lottery ticket
- Traveling to an amusement park

She health!
She makes about 200 food choices in one day, but she thinks she makes about 15 choices. She can learn to make the best choices by writing down everything she eats for three days in a row and being honest, especially about the spoonfuls of Edy's Cookies & Cream she takes throughout the day.

She Eat
Road trips do not always inspire the healthiest eating, with the options at most rest stops being full of fat. Here are some of the better choices at participating restaurants:
- Au Bon Pain: Numerous salads and soups along with whole grain breads. Try the Thai Chicken Salad.
- Wendy's: Many salads to choose from, along with grilled chicken salads. The Chunky Chicken Frescata does not taste like 460 calo- ries! Watch out for the Frosty!
- McDonald's: Most salads are great; just opt for the grilled chicken instead of fried, choose a lighter dressing, and quit stealing your kid's fries.
- Subway: The Turkey Fresh Fit meal offers a six-inch sub (choose wheat bread), apple slices, and lowfat milk.
- Burger King: They are trying to enter the salad arena with a Tendergrill Chicken Garden Salad.
