Look folks...I don't want to appear stodgy on the subject, but let's see if we can avoid future comments on anyone's physical attributes? We can (and generally do) refrain from this type of banter (though I realize the temptation may be great in some cases.)

Thanks

She could use about 6 months of a hunger strike. She's been training for awhile by the looks of it.

Some people just need an "excuse" to finally start a diet. I'm proud of her.
