month's "Self" magazine, with lots of details and comparisons, as well as some other good articles (4 women who lost a total of over 450 lbs.!). And, for you other Virgos out there, it's our month to be written up! ;-)

I have a Pilates dvd for weight loss - am trying that for some variety. Will have to read that article.

Yep, Virgos rule! One good thing about working on my birthday this year at Dillard's is that it is a holiday & I get time and a half. I think turning 44 will be ok, though don't know how I'll feel next year!

As much as I love Pilates, I wouldn't count too much on it for losing weight. It's not considered a cardio form of exercise (unless you're very advanced) to burn a lot of calories. It will tone and elongate muscles to help you lose inches and wear a smaller size, which to me, is often as good as losing the weight.

Dillard's should give you an extra discount for working on your birthday!! I had posted a while back that I should work there at least parttime, because I'd seen so many beautiful clothes there, and the one closest to us has the best selection of shoes (overall) in town. They've really come a long way in the last two years in that shoe dept. Do you find it hard to resist putting your pay back into clothes being around them all the time?

No, because I'm either here at the Assoc., working at Dillard's or with ds - never enough time to shop! I was looking at fall fashions online (Vogue) and love Calvin Klein - wish I could have access to more than the jeans line. If I could buy the other fashions by Calvin, I would buy, buy, buy like no tomorrow (of course, on sale! LOL!). Yes, Dillard's has gorgeous shoes & I drool over their shoes every night when I walk by . . .
