Best. Day. Ever.

Look what I got today!!!



That's right...6 vintage issues of Weight Watchers Magazine circa 1971-1973. These little treasures are complete with hundreds of "legal" recipes in full color, great retro weight loss articles, an advice column by Jean Nidetch and many, many awesome weight loss product ads. I can barely contain myself.

My Retro WW world just got a little more colorful. Beware.

Whoa, this is really awesome!

I do a lot of vintage/antique shopping. If I find some more mags like this, I'll pick them up for you!

I love that they actually put "legal" on the front of the magazine. Have fun with those, they seem...well...interesting. You should get some great recipes in there to work with, hopefully some of them are edible. Great job on the experiment, I really love reading your blog.
