    Hey hun, I just got this. I feel you on not being a skinny minnie. A real woman has curves and thickness. I'm only 5'2 and my goal weight is 160. They say I'm supposed to be between 115-140.....no thanks. But I am afraid of what my tummy is going to look like if no, when I lose 74lbs. My skin doesn't go back to Iits original spot. My kids really stretched my belly. Mine just hangs real low. That's the thing I hate about myself the most. But if I lose 74lbs at least I'll look better in clothes lol
