Could use better formatting August 2, 2009 Dixie Lady (Baton Rouge, LA USA) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
After a lifetime of reading Cosmo, Vogue, and other better funded lady mags, I gave Self a try, in the interest of reading something that encouraged me to lose weight, rather than just making me feel bad for not being model sized. Unfortunately, all this magazine did was make me appreciate the pretty formatting and presentation of the more established magazines.
Self was aesthetically unpleasing, too much text, poor color choices, and very repetitive from one issue to the next. Their workout regimens weren't anything groundbreaking, and their recipes ranged from bland to just plain unappetizing (not to mention not filling). Also, it was hard to tell what articles were actually about giving good advice and which ones were advertising some weight-loss product from whichever sponsor had purchased the page space.
Overall, I won't be resubscribing to this magazine, it wasn't entertaining or helpful. For fitness advice, you'd be better off looking for something off of google, or any of the other more fitness focused magazines, and for girly entertainment, the classics would be better.
awesome mag! June 17, 2009 BDG (Ann Arbor, MI) I really like this magazine's fitness and life tips! They are so quick and easy but helpful :)
Don't Waste Your Money March 25, 2009 Melia C. Kramer (Los Angeles, CA) 2 out of 5 found this review helpful
This magazine seems to spend more time pushing personal politics and little time on any aspect of a woman's health, fitness, or true development of "self". Further, the politiking is poorly done and sensational. Don't waste your money. It is amateur journalism at best.
