The way we look and feel about our bodies is never more of an issue than when it's time to wear summer fashions. As I sat down to review this season's most fabulous lingerie, I couldn't help but think about the recent round of interviews that I just finished with the country's top fitness trainers for my book, "How To Get A Body Like A Rock Star (Without Suffering, Starvation, Or Spending A Fortune)." The combined client list of these trainers includes the best bodies in Hollywood, yet they all felt that getting a dream body is not just for the rich and famous.
As we quickly move into summer, there's still time to make positive changes in your diet and exercise that will impact not only the way you look in your undies, but how you feel in them as well. Who wouldn't want to wear this pretty rose tulle chemise and low rise hipster set by Only Hearts (photo at right), or one of their fabulous stretch lace slips (photo below left) on a hot summer night? Helena Stuart for Only Hearts can be found in every major magazine -- on every major celebrity -- and at specialty shops and finer department stores throughout the world. For more information, go to www.onlyhearts.com.
For those of you interested in creating a lean toned look that you can show off in lacy lingerie, you may want to pay close attention to what Valerie Waters has to say. The way she trains some of the most coveted bodies in the world has become her signature style. Her clients not only have great butts, they also train to kick butt in their roles.

"Madame, I am. And you are ugly. And in the morning, I shall be sober."
A young whipper-snapper, I say. I have a son almost your age.

That joke is that old, eh? ;)
Yup. I heard it when I was a youngster.
Some Quotes... From Winston....
* "A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject."
* "A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its trousers on."
* "Although prepared for martyrdom, I preferred that it be postponed."
* "Broadly speaking, the short words are the best, and the old words best of all."
* "Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb."
* "I have always felt that a politician is to be judged by the animosities he excites among his opponents."
* "I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals."

* "Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened."
* "Never hold discussions with the monkey when the organ grinder is in the room."
* "Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy, or that anyone who embarks on the strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. The statesman who yields to war fever must realise that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events."

* "We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give."
* "When I am abroad, I always make it a rule never to criticise or attack the government of my own country. I make up for lost time when I come home."

Point away, my screw-ups are legendary. ;)
When you reach my age, they all look sensational,anywhere between ninteen and ninty, and anywhere shy of a potential guest for the Jerry Springer show and any gal meatier than a fashion model.
As long as it doesn't look like 2 VW Beetles trying
to pass each other.....It's cute!!!
I'm sure you realize that here is nothing a man can say and not get b**ched out, so here we go.
Did it ever occur to you that some of us are thin just because that is how we are built? I am 5'10" and I weigh 128 lbs. I am sooooo tired of people asking me if I am anorexic. I am not deathly grody shapelessly skinny, but I am thin.
Point: all women are different. And curvy is beautiful, no matter what. So take it back.
works for me. heheheh
Dang, man, so now thin is ugly??? Geez, I can't win!
