None, regularly. If they have a feature on how to do intersting things with very long hair without an extra pair of hands, I might buy one, or tips on altering out of style clothing into in style clothing…stuff like that. — "There’s a seeker born every minute."

to the giant emperor penguin, who stood awaiting an answer, (Roseanne Liska) said: : BBW : Mode : Fit : Shape : Fitness : Weight Watchers : Self : Marie Claire — they have such great articles on women, makes you love : being a woman my roommate and I read most of these. I personally like Shape a lot, but I’m usually disappointed with their "success stories". I’d much rather read about a woman going from 300 lbs. to 180 lbs. than a 140 lb. woman dropping 20 lbs. But if you read their submission guidelines, they won’t consider your success story unless you send in an ‘after’ picture of yourself wearing tight workout clothes. in other words, you better be -skinny- or else we don’t consider you enough of a success. just a little rant. Mode, oh how i love Mode. what a good magazine. cindy

Cindy, You’re kidding!!?? I have never read the submission guidelines for their success stories..!! You’re right, that sucks. So if you go from 500 pounds to 200 pounds one is not a success? I think that is a bigger success than I could ever hope to be…!! –roseanne – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – to the giant emperor penguin, who stood awaiting an answer, (Roseanne Liska) said: : BBW : Mode : Fit : Shape : Fitness : Weight Watchers : Self : Marie Claire — they have such great articles on women, makes you love : being a woman my roommate and I read most of these.

Claudia, I usually read them in bed at night before I fall asleep. I cannot read books in bed, b/c I am not awake enough to follow the plot, I need something short and full of pictures to read…. While I’m waiting for dinner to cook, while I wait for my Email to download, etc… I LOVE to read, so I just make time :) You should see my husbands list of magazines (and he works 2 full time jobs) hahahaha. :) –roseanne – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – How do you find the time o read all that.

Response:
I read just about every free minute too, but mostly novels. I find them more satisfying than magazines which generally I don’t care for – though I read Newsweek so I have some handle on what’s happening in the world, and I read Smithsonian because it is the only magazine I love. However in the old days I was often reduced to reading the backs of cereal boxes at breakfast if there was nothing else around. Now that I am LC and no longer eat cereal I have to make sure reading material is always available. That was the the *one* (and only) thing I did like when I commuted to NYC – all the reading I got to do on the train. — Debbie Cusick see pictures of me and my son Brock at http://asd.dozer.com/bio – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Rosie, Is it an inherited hobby? :) My mother reads like us too!!

roseanne, there is no doubt in my mind that reading does improve the mind! after i am done with all the mags, i recycle them through my family (nine brothers and sisters) and then they go to a recycling center, so they get alot of miles! being around well read people, is what i do for fun! and i do believe that the love of reading is a gift, and the lust for knowledge is a learned one! happy thanksgiving! rosie – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Rosie, Is it an inherited hobby? :) My mother reads like us too!!

Me, too. I sometimes read mags like Scientific American or Popular Science, Time or Newsweek, used to read my mother’s American Journal of Nursing when she was done with them. Maybe even Omni or Discover, but no fashion/diet women’s magazines. I used to have a friend whose parents always subcribed him to Smithsonian, and he would give them to me when he was done with them, I loved those, too. However in the old days I was often reduced to reading the backs of cereal boxes at breakfast if there was nothing else around. Now that I am LC and no longer eat cereal I have to make sure reading material is always available.
I used to do that, too, especially when I was a kid. I spend a lot of time at the used bookstores, picking up a dozen or more paperbacks at a time. I get a lot of books at garage sales, too. I do have one reading vice, though….I read Weekly World News. I think it’s much funnier than magazines intended to be humor magazines. — "There’s a seeker born every minute."

(or am i thinking of another one?) Marie Claire — they have such great articles on women, makes you love being a woman I love Marie Claire – it’s become my second favorite, right after New Woman.
