I stayed tiny, right into my thirties, 23 inch waist and 36 inch hips. I didn't know it was tiny. I had too much attention from men. If you had told me at the time that I'd be 55, definitely not tiny and still have such handsome men begging me to go out with them, I'd have said you were delusional. I am confident. I was lucky to have a younger boyfriend, who is still my devoted friend, for many years. He told me from the start that beauty doesn't come in one size. Ladies, think about it, confidence in a man is ATTRACTIVE. It is the same for women. The good thing is that being what yiddish describes as zaftig, well it screens out the twits. Look up the real definition for the word twit. And definitely the self absorbed bores will leave you alone, unless they happen to love zaftig, at least then they will flatter you.

Fat Girls Guide to Life book
by love2Bworldly inanyone read the "fat girl's guide to life"?
i am reading it right now and finding it pretty interesting.
it makes me think outside the box a little bit about how much money is spent on products for people to lose weight, and how much money saturates the market and influences so much of the media.. the author's attitude is one i try to have-- exercise, be balanced in eating habits, drink water, take nutrition supplements, and don't obsess over dieting & what the scale says or about other people's judgements toward my weight.. right now, i already know why i am overweight-- i am eating to deal with my bipolar issues.

Love, eat healthy foods. Be balanced. Exercise. Take the best care of your hair and skin. Don't be afraid to dress well and use cosmetics. I remember a comedian once said, and he was black, "Don't try telling a 350 lb black woman she aint sexy." And he spoke of how black women tend to care more about dressing well and looking their best no matter what size.
Beauty doesn't come in a size. A woman can be beautiful, slender and boring. If she's got a natural sex appeal and charisma, she's going to have it no matter what she weighs or how old she gets. Confidence is key.
If anyone pressures you to look a certain way, or to be a certain size, remember that it is his/her issue, not yours. Shallow people are unpleasant. I'll take fat and jolly any day over a twit, fat or thin.

Suggestions for car buying
by FlyingHighNow inif you were a lady and you were 55 and had $5,000 or less to spend on a used car, what would buy?
top concerns: good mpg; reliable; in not having major issues like ball joints breaking, timing belts breaking, etc.
not too expensive to maintain.

Thanks for your PMs.
Keep the suggestions coming.
Where would you draw the line on mileage on the odometer?

I'm wondering if the fellow is gay or bi. I have a transgender sibling, who once was a baptis minister. He/she believes that it's sinful to be gay. Now a she, she thinks it's not wrong to have surgery, take hormones, to become what you've always felt you were on the inside. I don't think so either. She feels it's wrong to couple up with a same sex partner though. I love my sister to the ends of the earth. I'm not sure how she twists her mind around this one. I hope she will ease up on her feelings about gay relationships.

That's an important issue, how much does the car cost to repair. I'm raising a grandson and don't have tons of extra cash for repairs.

One suggestion was a 2001 Volvo. Can't remember which model.
