"Plump" used to be a compliment.
"Sunburnt" or "suntanned" was demeaning.
Showing your ankles was incredibly obscene.
Times have changed.
We pay good money to work off the excess weight we have gained from our sedentary lifestyles. We pay for tanning booths and bronzing lotions. And we show a whole lot more than just our ankles.
Today: Yogurt -- 150
Fiber One -- 60
Grilled Cheese Sandwich -- 670 (and if I'd known that, I wouldn't have made one!)
Bill's Hamburger Soup -- 350 (guessimate)
Popcorn -- 200
TOTAL -- 1,430
It may be easier to simply invent a time machine and go back to the 1830's when I would be plump, pale and modest.

That last line is priceless. Love it.
Sometimes it is incredible to me that we can send a man to the moon, but there is no easy way for me to lose 20 lbs.
