Hello, loves! I'm going to join a gym. I weigh 160 lbs and, although I don't look all that heavy, I am caring a lot of fat in the stomach area. I cannot go a lot of aerobics, which really burns the fat, because of my crippled legs. My mom was against it at first, saying that I could just do mat excersizes at home, but I need something more than that; I'm not going to lose fourty pounds by doing mat excersizes alone. Plus, with the cold weather coming up and with the amount of sunlight getting shorter, I'm not going to be able to go on walks much longer. It's going to cost money but that isn't something my family is concerned about; I just need to excersize and lose some weight because I feel like a big blob.

I've been reading lots of magazines lately. I subscribe to Teen Vogue and Glamour, and my mom subscribes to Marie Claire and a lot of furnature magazines. I've finished reading the latest magazines I own, so I decided to start reading other magazines. I started subscribing to Seventeen over the summer by accident. I did not realize that the box was checked off for subscription, but afterwards I decided to let it run its course because I thought it could be fun. However, I consider the magazine for the illiterate. There are basically no words, only pictures, thoughtout every issue. I want substance, which is why I now permanent marker over my address and give the Seventeen magazines to my friends. I picked up an Elle magazine and was pleasantly surprised by the large amount of writing involved-a drastically needed improvement from the Seventeen magazines-but most of the topics did not catch my interest. I grabbed my mom's Marie Claire and their topics did not appeal to me either. Most of what I read was of health and world issues. My mother used to subscribe to W but now she gets them at the library. I don't like them very much, but I do occasionally like their more cleaver photo shoot sessions. All in all, I am picky about my magazines X]
