I'm hooked, August 7, 2007
By micksmommi

"I've always liked magazines. You read them and then give them to a friend, donate them to a hospital, or throw away. I have yet to get rid of a single issue of First for Women. I have even bought two of some issues so I could "loan" one out. I am still rereading editions from last year. Well written articles, and lots of helpful tips."

Cons: don't get it often enough

"I subscribe to First for Women and was reading it on the bus one afternoon on my way home from work. The lady behind me was reading over my shoulder (I didn't realize). When I finished the magazine, she asked me if she could look at it. She loved it too. She said this is the best magazine I have ever seen. It has so many interesting articles on hairstyles, fashion, weight loss, cooking, interior decorating, helpful hints, medical issues and so much more. My sister always reads the magazine when she visits. For her birthday, she asked me to get her a First for Women subscription. I thought that was a wonderful idea. She was so hard to buy for as she has everything so what a great idea for a birthday present. Love your magazine. Thanks for all of the wonderful articles."

"I'd recommend "FIRST" to ALL of my friends! I wish they had a site online. Included are always a lot of healthful and helpful tips on diet and exercise. It also tells you a lot of things that aren't helpful to people. There are lots of delicious & healthy recipes between the pages too. I definitely think you should pick one up at your nearest supermarket and give it a chance. You'll be hooked after the "First" magazine!"

"I always find the detox programs very beneficial. I did the berry detox program mentioned 2 years ago and lost 7 pounds which led me on my way to losing 30 pounds. With the help of daily exercise and making better choices in eating I have gone from a size 12 to a 6. I am currently trying another detox with cranberry and hope to find the benefits mentioned in the article (Dec 07?) to be beneficial to my health. Overall, I really enjoy the entire magazine.

Great reading, Useful articles, September 5, 2007
By gikkiegirl

"You get real bang for your buck with this magazine. The articles are useful, you don't look at ad after ad for clothes and shoes you would never wear, nor could ever afford, and you get helpful info. I just made a recipe from the September 10, '07 issue (Salmon-Asparagus Linguine) and it was fabulous. Every guest went home with the recipe because they loved it. Great job FIRST magazine"
