STUPID MAGAZINES

i am sooo tired of reading a magazine and three quarters of the book being full page advertisements, and anything with reading still has advertisements on it. Its like, you pay for advertisements. I don't care about any of that, i hate picking up readers digest to spend have the time looking at an add for fucking cranberries! Like god, i want to read about the story and not have half a page of story and the rest damn advertisements. Like for the size of them, you have like 20 pages of actual reading material. Its like god! What happen, to you know, writing in your damn magazines?

YEH! I hate it when theres like 4 pages of celebrities outfits and they go 'yey' 'nay' its so shallow 'OMG THEY WENT OUT IN THE WRONG SHOES SHE'LL NEVER LIVE THIS DOWN FOOOOR SHAME' /rant

They make shit up to, magazines, newspapers grrrrrr they showed some picture of some celebrity doing something human like sweating, OOH no it was like Pete Doherty with coke on his nose but then in the next picture it just contradicted the writer like they'd photo shopped it to look like that, how interesting.

i love advertising and i love magazines and i love celebrity gossip.

I'm really not sure why though, because I agree with everything said but for some reason I really love that.

Don't buy the magazines if you don't like the advertising and just check them out online, most mags have online pages and are much less annoying than the real thing. That is the way I get all my celebrity gossip, mags cost usually triple the price here, as they are all imported Happy

Actually the new issue does have an article which will help you with your fad diet!

I hate having too many ads in mags too, Real Simple and all fashion mags are terrible for it - I like to rip out the advert pages as I go and then turn them in to beads afterwards.

Well actually I get expensive fashion magazines and the articles are basically the same as the adverts anyway, and I like the adverts because they're all for like Prada and Miu Miu and Vivienne Westwood.

I don't like celeb magazines, it's interesting and all that but sometimes they're really horrible. I remember seeing this front page that said "Celebrities who hate their bodies!" and it's like, how do you know that they hate their body? And it had a picture of Christina Aguilera and the caption "Xtina - Pregnant and bloated!". I was furious, how can you accuse someone of being fat when they're pregnant?!

I get a lot of magazines because one, i need pictures of cool make-ups for my course for college, but i like to read them, But i'm paying like $10 for a magazine with mostly diet loose adds, and 100 calorie food adds. Which have nothing i could use in them, and its like a huge book with like 20 pages of reading and 300 pages of adds and small inch blocks of reading. Grrr

Water weight retention is a problem when your preg. I could not wear any jewelry and unless I had on sandals my feet didn't fit into my shoes. I was a mess trying to get together clothing for work and it doesn't stop after having the baby either. If you are breast feeding it packs the pounds everywhere. Your hips get wider after you deliver but not necessarily fat.

I always was irritated when a celeb has had a baby and then parades herself months later all skinny and cute since she has had her own personal trainer to get back to her original figure. They probably didn't get up for all the midnight feedings and had a wet nurse or nanny for the baby.

And!!!! I'm gonna have another grandson in July!! Yippee!! That makes four!

I only called her fat because I didn't like her, and also because she'd been quite slim(ish) before she'd got pregnant.

I feel mean now, but seriously it was one big bum!

PS CONGRATULATIONS LIPTHINK!

Some people make the mistake of eating for two when preggers, which doctors tell them now, is not necessary. I do not want to get pregnant, if my mother is anything to go on, I would be hooooge.
I was once asked if I was pregnant Happy I wasn't obviously..

Maybe you just had a nice glow about you?

My sister spent a large part of my teenage life telling me I looked pregnant.
