I know a woman who is tall, beautiful, intelligent and extremely successful. She is in her early 30s, has a sense of humor (albeit dry), is a great dancer and is not the type of woman who would kiss (let alone put out) on the first date.

When I graduated high school, I was 110 pounds of lean muscle and curves. Gone was that stubborn baby fat, and for the first time in my life, I had a flat stomach. With joy and optimism, I embraced my future of size three hip-hugger flares and halter-tops and packed my suitcase for college.
