Dear Lisa, Please don't be mad at me, but isn't it better to be voluptuous instead of losing weight. At least you have something to fall back on. And where does it say that bodies have to be all the same and skinny. You should look back at what was considered beauty hundreds of years ago. And since we can't see you you can tell us you're anything and then proceed to act like that image. Forget that. It's stupid. Sorry, Love and best wishes, and kisses and good stuff, Sally
