Cosmo UK Diets
Okay, I know I'm not a UK Chick, but I want to be! lol. I fell in love with London the two times I went (as well as Oxford, Stratford, well, you get the idea...) anyway, I read Cosmo UK because it's far, far superior to American Cosmo. I've noticed something lately, though - it seems that for years Cosmo would feature a new "weekly diet" a la Bridget Jones. The LBD, the Scarsdale, Atkins, etc. Lately, however, in lieu of a new diet scheme, I notice that they've been running stories like, "Why you are NOT fat" or "How to find you 'happy' weight", which I find extremely encouraging.
I was always rather worried about young girls flipping these open and deciding to do some random diet for a week, thinking they could lose 15 pounds and sort of stuck in this cycle as their Cosmo came every month.
Since we're usually a bit behind getting our Cosmos from the UK, has this trend continued, or was it kind of a fad like anything else, only to return to the "normal" stories they had before?
