Very cute. Reminds me of the first time DH saw me curl my eyelashes - He was completely fascinated by my eyelash curler. LOL. And there are maternity hosiery that is specially made to go up to your waist...which is now directly below your bra line, so yes they do make pantyhose that go to your bra. LOL. And re Kirstie: I kinda always assumed that she had some sort of contract with Jenny Craig that would forbid her from lying about her weight loss for fear of all the bad publicity that would cause for their company but maybe I'm wrong.

Ya gotta pointed bra - ten inch waist, long black stockings all over the place - boots - buckles - belts outside - Whatcha got in there yer tryin' to hide? Hmmm? What's inside a girl? Ain't no hotter question in a so-called civilized world. Can't see it by satellite - baby that's cheatin' - the President's callin' an emergency meetin' - the king of siam sent a telegram sayin' "Wop bop a loop a lop a lop boom BAM!" Wooee...What's inside a girl? Somethin's tellin' me there's a whole nuther world. Come onnn - What's inside a girl? Like da itty bitty baby takes apart his toys. I'm gonna find what's rilin' up the boys. Sugar and spice is just a bluff. You can tell me baby...what is that stuff?! Come on...What's inside a girl? That wavy gravy got my head in a whirl. ----------------------------------------- One of my favorite songs!

Originally Posted By TALL Disney Guy <I for one am a bit relieved that he didn't know more.> LOL...yeah, the only "special hose" thing I knew until now was support hose. In one episode of "Mama's Family" Naomi demonstrates for Mama-who-has-a-crush-on-her-night-school-teacher how to sit "like Suzanne Somers on the Carson show, nobody sits cuter than her!", and Mama says "Well good Lord, to get my legs to do that I'd have to oil my sup hose!" I was a young teenage boy and was confused, so asked my sister who was watching with me what "sup hose" is, and she said it means "support hose". She didn't tell me what exactly support hose was though, so I just nodded like I understood. lol

So, good for her (and for me too)

Originally Posted By LPFan22 Anyone that tries to lose weight gets credit in my book. Anyone that puts herself on national television via commercials and programs... then walks on the Oprah show in a bikini gets a gold star. Good for her for sharing those ups and downs with us!
