Like a lot of women my age, I'm having a little trouble with "middle age spread". I recently read an article that said to avoid heart disease your waist measurement should be no more that half your height. I did some measuring and some quick calculations and decided that I don't need to get slimmer - I just need to get taller. So I'm canceling the gym membership and from now on you'll find me at the playground hanging by my ankles from the monkeybars!

Yup - I have a goal weight & a goal height. Still searching for the magic solution for both. :mrgreen:
