What a relief it was to read this article.
I must admit that when I saw “He’s Just Not That Into You” (which… far out.. could you have given it a zippier title ploise?) even I was taken aback by Scarlett Johansson’s curves.
I must stress here that Scarlett is in NO WAY fat.
She’s gorgeous, and how I would love to have her body. I think I had just got so used to seeing, let’s face it, skeletal or whippet thin women on our screen that I had forgotten what a normal woman (who is, admittedly, hott as) looked like.
Remember I joined the gym?
Well I am proud to say I am still going. I now do 2 pump classes and a spin class every week but have not actually lost much weight to my knowledge because.. ahhh… cardio my old friend… how I fucking haaaaate thee. I LOVE pump. Love it. I love feeling stronger and fitter and I love the fact that my cellulite appears to be… going? So this week I am going to attempt at least 2 more spin classes and see how that goes.
Anyone got any tips on how to love cardio?
Ok, totally got sidetracked then. Went from talking about curves and how much I love them to talking about my curves and how much I seem to dislike them.
I don’t, I just wish there were less of them…
I’ve just finished watching Kelly Clarkson on tele and how delightful is she? I reckon she would be a top chick.
I’m just waffling on now so I am going to go and do something else…
Ptttttttttttttthhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
But how awesome was Scarlett’s bum in “Lost in Translation”? Have you seen it? Please tell me you have seen it, not the bum, the movie. It could be one of my favourite movies of all time. It makes me cry. Do you know I have a crush on Bill Murray? Especially in that movie. And I just found out what Bob supposedly whispers to Charlotte at the end of the movie. If you want to know too visit IMDB and scroll down to the spoilers. Somehow.. I liked it better when I didn’t know.
I cooked a big beef and vegetable soup tonight and chucked all sorts of stuff in. Hence (“and.. HENCE”) my brain is a bit like that soup, scatty and mushy. Tasted awesome though.
Hurrah for curves.
Oh, I love that last line!! I love the movie all the more now, thankyou!!

Yay curves!!!
And if I were closer I would totally box with you for cardio and it would be total chaos fun. Though you are doing cardio via RPM!

I hear ya! I think curvy women are much sexier than stick thin ones. I think Sara Ramirez (Callie on Grey’s Anatomy) is HAWT! Yet, I don’t hold myself to the same standard and am always trying to get thin, thin, thin. *sigh*
I haven’t seen Lost in Translation but now I must.
Hurrah!
Don’t need to preach to the choir on this one. I think skinny was never really in. It was just the media that decided that because there were too many obese people, famous people had to be skinny.
Stupid media.
Thanks Jula, that was a great article! I gotta say, I would rather look like I do now with all the extra lumps and bumps than look like this:

*shudders*
How’s this, the specialist told me the other day that I would have to lose weight before I could have surgery to fix the valve in my stomach, you can imagine how much that did for my ego!!! Didn’t think I was packing that much extra for crying out loud! LOL
I would advise not looking at scales, they are horrible, measuring centimetres is a far nicer tactic. I have found the best way to love (or hate less) cardio is to beat it into a pulpy submission. My current plan to do this is 2 min warm up on the bike, really low level. 30 sec flat out at a highish level, 30 sec rest at low level. Do this 5 times and then low level for 2 min repeat. I love the bike as the k’s go quickly and it makes you feel like you have achieved great things. I would love to get into more boxing, apparently there are some really great boxing gym’s in Fyshwick and Mitchell. I agree curves are fantastic but it’s ok to want them not to wobble
Ooooh Scarlett is my girlcrush, HURRAH!!! And her curves are totally hot, you are correct! LOVED Lost In Translation, Bill Murray is hubby’s mancrush, LOL!!
SOUP, YUMMY!!!
