I wrote a long winded rant about how much I hate this magazine, but deleted it and will let pictures do it for me (these are typical covers for this weekly magazine).
*Mods: Please don't move this to chit-chat. I think if it goes there the people who could be helped by seeing it will not see it.

If I could manage to shut a company down I would target them. This is why people are so confused about weight loss. I find this irresponsible.0

Sorry, I couldn't get past the first cover where "End your carb addiction" is featured right above the cupcake tips!!0

Every magazine is like that. Garbage diet advice and high calorie recipes. Sometimes on the same page.0 -

Makes National Enquirer look legitimate and restrained.0

If any of those plans actually worked, I don't think you'd even have a magazine any more.0

Well, this is a publication marketed entirely to women. And everyone knows wimminz are ignorant and sit home all day eating sweets and watching soaps.

I agree, it's irresponsible and annoying! Is everyone really just looking for a "quick fix"?
Eta- I find it super amusing that practically every cover claiming weight loss has desserts on the cover! Like lots of them!
Ya it's like.. cure your carb addiction... but when you fail, here is a great recipe for cupcakes! LOL

Wow. It's like they copied and pasted every spam ad off of the internet and sold it in a magazine.0

It's effing genius when you think about it0 -
/\/\ Yes, I totally agree. This is why all the confusion permeates logical discussion on the forums, about what is the right way to lose weight. This magazine is one big contradiction, the front page sells you on looking thin. Then on the inside it is full of advertisements for different diets and pills that are most likely harmful, then bombards you with fattening recipes. This magazine is one of the worse for pushing diet garbage...0

You can find some of this "new great advice" every week while you wait in line at the grocery store right next to where you check out.0

I find the magazines like Cosmo/Elle/Self etc. even more annoying with various articles focus on self-esteem and self-acceptance paired with underweight models and quick fix diets.

I don't know what you guys are talking about. I rearranged my fridge, ate the magic soup, drank a few glasses of tea, and donated my clutter, and now I'm a millionaire supermodel who manically bakes the-most-adorable-cupcakes-evah for my massive following of friends/family.
Seriously, my hair is so shiny and perfect, and I only spend like three or four minutes on it every morning. I NEVER spend over five minutes on my gorgeous mane of hair.
Thanks, Woman's World Magazine!

I have a joke like that as well. I lost over 70 pounds in 3 years and will never make it into a weight loss article
Only in the fitness world is the speed of the loss important. 0 -
That magazine drives me nuts and I just want to burn them all.0

God, is this magazine still going? I remember my grandmother and aunts reading it when I was a teenager and I'm in my 40s now. It looked exactly the same then, too.0
