It's funny. A few years back, a neighbor of mine who was obese suddenly turned up with an incredible figure, new long blond hair....it was a stunning transformation. Running into her, I remember wondering what to say. I did NOT want to do the big "oh my GAWD!!!" So I settled for, "Hey, you look fabulous"--as if she just had a great outfit on--and moved on.

Don;t mean to hijack the thread with this side discussion, but it's an interesting point.

Anyway, it's good to come here and talk about these things.
