A skinny quickie contest

September 7, 2008 | Contests

If you are female and American, chances are you’re on a diet right now, or have been at some point in the past. We could talk all day long about why that is or what it means to be healthy or why so many women are unhappy with their bodies, but I have to get to church.

Instead, let’s all agree that whatever your personal body image demons, there’s nothing wrong with a little dessert that doesn’t pack on the pounds. Weight Watchers makes snack cakes, cookies, and muffins that are only 1 WW point apiece. (Wait, I lied—the muffins are 3 points. Details. The cookies and snack cakes are only 1.)

As part of a balanced diet plan… well, blah blah blah, you know the drill. Please don’t eat nothing but snack cakes. Anyway. I have coupons for three free Weight Watchers sweet baked goods items, and they’re going out to one lucky Want Not reader.

Want to win ‘em? Simply leave a comment on this post by 11:59 p.m. Eastern (8:59 p.m. Pacific) tonight, Sunday, September 7th, 2008.

And then you can go get three boxes of guilt-free snacking. Not that you need it—you look fabulous, darling.
