2. Thin, but not too thin.
Maybe 10 pounds off, but I'd much rather look like me and be not so rich, or famous, then be, say, very famous and chunky. I used to be chunkier and most of the time I wanted to hide under a rock. Maybe that's not very "enlightened" to say, but I wasn't comfortable in my own skin at the time.
