 Great magazine! February 3, 2010
S. Gross (Chicago, IL)
I subscribed to this magazine about a year ago, and I love it. I love that it has short articles and several facts/helpful tips. I also enjoy the workouts and personal stories of people who have achieved their weight-loss goals. I love that the magazine features a celebrity, also.
 Same every month. November 27, 2009

Not informational, same stuff every month. I had liked Self several years ago and recently bought a year of it because it was only $9.00. By the 3rd issue I realized what a waste of money it is. Most of the tidbits seem to be rumors and not actually valid. I also think you are better off buying one dvd to work out to than a year of this magazine. I feel bad every time it comes because it is a waste of paper.
A disappointment November 24, 2009

I used to subscribe to Self when I was in high school, over 10 years ago. This past year, I wanted to revamp and improve my fitness and exercise regime, and I remembered this magazine as a good fitness resource when I was a teenager. So I subscribed, and was flabbergasted by the first, and continuing, issues that I received. Was this the same magazine I subscribed to years prior? Did I make a mistake with the name? While indeed there was some advice on fitness and nutrition, I found the majority of the magazine was devoted to giving me tips on how to lose those few extra pounds (I"m quite trim and don't need to, thank you). The magazine also seemed to presume that I had low self-esteem, and therefore took it as their task to boost it for me.
Either the magazine has changed, or I remember it differently. I should not have subscribed and will continue to try to find a magazine that is devoted purely to nutrition and fitness.
The only reason I didn't give this magazine one star is because the few, very few, exercise regimes they highlight have been good and useful. There was one particular stairway routine that I use on a regular basis. I just wish they could have more of this! Editors: please stop thinking that I"m only exercising because I need to lose weight.
THE PERFECT MAGAZINE!!! September 13, 2009

I have been looking and looking for a magazine like this for years! And it NEVER REPEATS ITSSELF!!! Its the perfect combination of everything! Unlike some magazines such as;
Cosmo-i feel is waaay to focused on sex.
Glamour- i always feel ugly (very superficial magazine)
Shape- I swear a Drill Srgt wrote it!
This magazine offers you a little beauty,fashion,sex,your well being!(body mind and soul!!!)fitness, and even recepies~!
I promise you, you will not be dissapointed!

Ths magazine didn't live up to my expectations. September 10, 2009

I expected a magazine with insightful articles about health and fitness with maybe some recipes thrown in to help me out. I flipped through the magazine and got mostly advertising not many articles or any useful information. I think this would ptobably be a good magazine for someone in the late teens to middle twenties but if you are older then that you should buy Health Magazine or First for Women which is packed with information on everything that is important to women from house hold tips to health news to recipes and advvice forom readers. I would also recomend All You Magazine which includes the same type of information as First for Women and they give you a lot more useful information for your money. I am just going to allow the subscrition to run out and not order self again.
