The Fit List: Sustainable activewear, alcohol-free wine and veggie meal plans

For this week’s Fit List we’re getting into the summer holiday vibes.

Whether you wish you were lazing on the beach with a glossy mag and a glass of pinot or you’re dreaming of trying exotic cuisine, we’ve got some health conscious alternatives that might do the trick.

Sure, you might not be able to travel abroad, but at least you can bring some sunshine to your wellbeing routine.

Missing the tan as well? You might want to check out Dove’s new lotion for a subtle glow.
