Mr. Wonderful has to explain the difference between men and women, and how men always get that "belly curve"...the beer gut, the six pack abs that are now a keg, the nine year pregnant man syndrome. Why is it that men gain weight only in the gut area and women gain all over, and can hide it better?
He gets out a piece of paper and starts drawing illustrations how unsuccessful it is to make semi dress clothes fit around the huge belly curve. His theory is that you have to buy longer ties so they actually make it all the way down to your belt, but mostly once the belt line dips below that last button on your shirt...who knows what goes on down there!

Fabulous! I love it!
That must be one mighty big mug!
It is weird that men tend to carry weight around the midsection, and women gain mostly in the hip/butt/thigh area. I just lost 6 pounds myself...we are HOT! ;o)
I could stand to loose a lot more, and sure enough I'll lose it first in the chest area...DARN!
I swear I posted this earlier, but did you see the thing on msn about a new wii game for women's weight loss. I thought of you immediately.
I'm lost on the tie philosophy.
Your picture doesn't seem to indicate you could stand to lose a lot more weight.
I could stand to lose about 10-15 myself. Its frustrating. I can run marathons/half marathons and triathlons, but I can't lose all the baby weight 3 years later! And I never lose from my chest! ANd I want to! That's a whole other post though...
Becs...Wait or should I say "weight" until you hit that over the hill plateau...you will lose in all the wrong places!
I'll have Mr Wonderful comment on the tie philosophy..I don't get it either!
You are very punny.
I'll take your word on the over the hill thing. I've got a while still. I just want my excess weight to be gone before another child... although I won't gain so much the next time around.
And I have a special post request regarding how you came to love flamingos the way you do.
becs...thanks for the nice compliment...A woman never reveals her true age! When asked, I tell people I am under 100! I will tell you that my son is 37, I have 5 grand children, and the oldest grand daughter is almost 18! Yikes! The youngest is 3 years old.
I will do a special post about how I came to love flamingos. I think I did one way back when, but I will take new pictures of them in our new flamingo home scattered about. They love the pool!
That post may be the highlight of Lexie's life :) She says to me daily, lets go check on the mingos on the computer :)
I have never seen you but I don't get the sense you are old. I am going to withold the remainder of my comment because no matter how I type it, it ends up sounding like you could be my mother. Totally not my intent.
becs...better your Mother than your Grandmother! I definitely don't act my age so that's probably why you don't sense how old I am. Coming soon...Flam on the slip & slide! (you won't want to miss that!)
I will make a point to blog about mingos just for Lexie! We have a busy weekend planned but I will take some new pictures just for her! Who knows, I might even appear in one of them! :)
Age is more about how you feel than anything else, so live it up, woman!
Enjoy your weekend! Wii may be wii lookout ;)
I feel good! I scored an age 35 on the Wii fitness test tonight! Wii!
I am young at heart...Life is too short NOT to be happy! (and I was the coolest Mom ever) I have references!
Have a great weekend too and let me know how those tap shoes tapped!
