Next to "Make Your Man Moan" and "Great Looks for Under $100," there's a new women's magazine staple: "I Was Fat For a Day."
In their August issues, both Marie Claire and Mademoiselle sent reporters to bulk up with fat suits - inspired by Gwyneth Paltrow and Julia Roberts, who don them in new movies.
Marie Claire's Ilene Rosenzweig puffed up from a size 6 to 14.
Mademoiselle's Katie Puckrik went whole hog: at 5-foot-2, she looked like she weighed 170 pounds.
