My hubby likes women. Curves, breasts, the whole nine yards.

I have noticed my male friends as they have gotten into their 30s are more for the "real woman" look. As someone on another thread once said -- a belly dancer figure, rather than a supermodel one.

Greg,

My husband of almost 50 years passed away in July. I know what you are going through. Just this last couple of weeks, i have been able to go through a whole day with out tears.

It has been way too soon for you to heal, but time is the best medicine.

I don’t know if you are an only child, but your father is really going to need your support, as you will need his.

If I can help in any way, please feel free to freepmail me.

Maria

The NutriSystem commercials are the worst offenders...the 10s and 12s going done to a 2 or 0...I personally cannot fathom paying $400 for a month of what amounts to supermarket Lean Cuisine. Being 10/12 ish I find these commercials sooo depressing. My 5 year old once suggested I do that. He didn't know it was a diet, he just saw the pictures of food.

My granddaughters wear size 0. They are in their twenties.

Sleep apnea is no fun, it saps the energy out of ya. Sorry for your loss.

I don’t remember... I used to shop there in my 20’s. I was SO excited when I got down to a size 4 (how I got there was simply starving). I started at size 3 until I had babies. Was so upset that my bosoms were so small.

Sizes are just a “marketing scheme.” There really aren’t any absolutes when it comes to women’s clothing.
