Wearing some plus size dress is not going to cut it. If you want to wear designer clothes, you'd better be skinny.

I'm a size 10 and struggle to be anything smaller. I have little kids and rarely have a sitter. My husband works from home or travels but can't usually watch the kids so I cannot work out. Yes I could do it early or late but I'm exhausted.

I can see the difference between how clothes look on me and how they look on someone who is a size 4. Everything looks good when you are skinny. Over size 8 and it's much tougher.

The pressure on the rich is a lot more than on people like me. I'm upper middle class by my standards (HHI around 380 with some family money to help buy a $2 million house) and I'm a stay at home mom who does a little work on the side where nobody sees me. I'm not running in the circles where I need to get dressed up.

My friends say I'm always better dressed than they are and I'm wearing Gap or Old Navy jeans and JCrew shirt. I don't go to fancy parties except a wedding here and there. The pressure on me to lose that dreaded 10 lbs is small. I really want to but I can always start tomorrow or the day after that or the day after that because I'm not going anywhere other than preschool, Safeway or to a friend's house. [/quote]
