    HI! I think you should go as Marilyn if you want. What's funny is that I think they undersize her sometimes. Just concentrate on your eating and workouts. Don't beat yourself up. Also do other things to. It seems that she had nice skin. Maybe treat yourself when while on your weight loss journey with home pedicures (or spring for a salon if you want to spend the dough lol) or a facial. Baby yourself. This way your will feel good and have fun for halloween.

    Tips? Hmm, water, water, water. I spring for the crystal light or wylers or some generic. I also do plain water. Up your veggies and fruits. Make some swaps. Salsa and chips instead of chips and queso. Hummus/veggies (yum) When making sandwiches pile on shredded lettuce or salad mix. Its filling and helps you get in your rec amount each day.

    BTW nothing wrong with curves. I finally have hips after having kiddos. I was always 105. I don't want to get down that low. I just want to evict some of the excess and lose weight. Good luck and HTH. :)
