Jennifer Garner thinks she's fat. Her obese (?) photo is on the front page of today's Herald. She claims she's now wearing a size six or eight. I'm an eight. I used to be a six. Thank goodness I'm in radio. What is up with women thinking they have to be a size ZERO or they're FAT???
The ONLY reason I wish I was still a size six is so I wouldn't have to buy new clothes! I'm a horrible clothes shopper. I grew up wearing jeans and t-shirts (much to my mother's dismay). I'd rather spend my time and money shopping for albums. I really hate that women (and men) are encouraged to be practically, physically invisible to be seen as sexually relevant; and that's what we're talking about here, isn't it?
And while I'm on the subject, have you seen the maternity clothes out now? When I had my children, my choices were these hideous baby doll, virginal, puffy sleeved, puffy bellied moo moos!!! Thankfully!!! I wouldn't have made it in today's pregnant-women-land! Not only must you retain your pre-pregnant body during the nine months (except for the baby belly) and dress stylishly, you're also expected to be back into your pre-pregnancy clothes within three weeks! (bonus hint: breast feed; the weight comes off easier; your uterus will reduce in size more quickly for a flatter stomach and both you and your baby will be healthier). So, note to Jennifer: welcome to womanhood...and you still look great at a size eight.

Thank goodness your on the radio? I have seen pictures of you and seen you in person. And there is nothing wrong with your size 8 or your looks. These women on TV and the Movies are jokes. Might be good looking. But I think it all stops there.( I could be wrong) AT least your real. Your pretty, Have a good sense of humor. Easy to talk to. From the sounds of things a good cook to!
I Love Jeans and a T-shirt. And how about that new Beatle CD? Awesom or what?
Take care Julie. Keep up the good work.
