My skin did pretty well during radiation. For weeks, nothing at all happened, and then at the very end of my 30+ days of treatment, a mild burn showed up. No blistering, though, or peeling, or anything else that made me horribly uncomfortable.

You (or those you know who are getting zapped) might not fare so well. Lucky you (actually two of you!), because right here, right now, you can enter to win a free tube of Jeans Cream. It’s a natural and revolutionary product that soothes and protects skin with high-potency vitamins and botanical extracts. And it’s not made by just anyone — creator and founder Jean is a two-time breast cancer survivor, and so she knows first-hand that this stuff really works.

Jeans Cream is good for more than just radiation-affected skin, it can effectively treat eczema, sunburn, diabetes-related skin issues, contact dermatitis, wound care, and you can even use it for daily moisturizing.

What are you waiting for? Leave a comment, and you just might score this valuable gift!

  • Leave a comment and share why you need this cream!
  • Leave your comment no later than 5PM ET on Wednesday, February 10, 2010.
  • You may enter only once.
  • Open to legal residents of the 50 United States, and the District of Columbia, who are 18 and older.

Giveaway – The Skinnygirl Dish: Easy Recipes for Your Naturally Thin Life

Tuesday, January 5th, 2010

www.bethenny.com

If you’re a fan of “The Real Housewives of New York City,” then you know Bethenny Frankel. She’s not only a reality TV girl, though — she’s also a celebrity natural food chef, columnist for Health magazine and best-selling author.

First came Bethenny’s book “Naturally Thin,” detailing 10 real-life rules for escaping a lifetime of dieting, and now she’s written “The Skinnygirl Dish: Easy Recipes for Your Naturally Thin Life.” This is where she shares fast, practical and economical healthy recipes, then teaches us how to live without them. How perfect for those of us trying to live cleaner lives in less time!

Bethenny also dishes on how we can minimize the “cooking noise” in our lives. Keep reading for some inspirational nuggets — and for the scoop on how to win one of her books.

  • Do you hear yourself saying any of these things: I have no food in this house. I don’t have the slightest idea what to make for dinner. There is nothing to eat! I don’t know how to cook. That’s “cooking noise,” and you can stop it, and you can learn to feed yourself without stressing about it.
  • Food is one of the most powerful tools you have for building a healthy body and a calm mind. Food can make you strong or weak, energized or depleted, skinny or fat. You are what you eat — it’s true.
  • Being naturally thin is a practice — you will never be perfect (no one is), but you can choose a healthy path and keep plugging along on it.
  • Recipes are a bit like kindergarten. You learn some basics (how do Whole Grain Blueberry Pancakes, a Healthier Cobb Salad and Oatmeal Raisin Cookies sound?), then you gain the confidence to branch out on your own. When you know how to cook, you won’t need recipes anymore.

OK, I could go on, but then you wouldn’t need the book, and I really think you should get it. Or you could enter this giveaway for a chance to win a free copy. Details follow:

  • Leave a comment and share why you need this book!
  • Leave your comment no later than 5PM ET on Tuesday, January 12, 2010.
  • You may enter only once.
  • Open to legal residents of the 50 United States, and the District of Columbia, who are 18 and older.
  • One winner will be selected in a random drawing.
  • One winner will receive one copy of “The Skinnygirl Dish: Easy Recipes for Your Naturally Thin Life,” valued at $16.00.
  • Winners will be notified by email, so make sure to check next week to find out if you’ve won!

Giveaway – STAND BY HER: A Breast Cancer Guide for Men

Friday, October 2nd, 2009
Leave a comment below to win this book!

Leave a comment below to win this book!

There’s a new breast cancer book out there, with a new twist — it’s for men. It’s called STAND BY HER: A Breast Cancer Guide for Men by John W. Anderson (AMACOM Books, October 2009).

Anderson watched his mother, Anne, die from breast cancer. Then, he watched his mother’s best friend Caryl, his sister Mary, and his wife Sharon battle breast cancer and survive. From these four extraordinary women, Anderson learned how breast cancer affects men and what men can do when women in their lives become its victims. After his wife reached her five-year cancer-free milestone, he decided to write a comprehensive reference and compass for husbands, fathers, sons, brothers and other caring men.

STAND BY HER is a step-by-step program targeted to men who want to become invaluable breast cancer caregivers to their loved ones, while at the same time helping them address and overcome their own personal fears, frustrations and anxieties caused by this disease. Combining anecdotes from his own and others’ secondhand experiences of breast cancer with extensive research and abundant resources, Anderson provides information, strategies and guidance on countless medical and emotional minefields men face, every day. Beginning with the challenge of interpreting and handling the initial diagnosis, he clearly explains the range of breast cancer treatments — from lumpectomy and chemotherapy to double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery.

Anderson is an Emmy-nominated director of television commercials, including Lifetime Television’s “Stop Breast Cancer for Life” campaign, and a writer, producer and director of television shows. He is a writer for newspapers and magazines, whose work has appeared in The New York Times, Rolling Stone, The Nation and many other publications. He has a blog www.standbyher.org.

And he’s going to be on The Today Show on October 8, talking all about the book. Check him out if you can.

And here’s some exciting news: One lucky reader is going to score a copy of Anderson’s book. Here’s the scoop on how to enter to win:

  • Leave a comment below sharing why you really want this book.
  • Leave your comment no later than 5PM ET on Friday, October 9, 2009.
  • You may enter only once.
  • Open to legal residents of the 50 United States, and the District of Columbia, who are 18 and older.
  • One winner will be selected in a random drawing.
  • One winner will receive one copy of STAND BY HER: A Breast Cancer Guide for Men, valued at $18.95.
  • Winners will be notified by email, so make sure to check next week to find out if you’ve won!
