Lilly kicks off with a brisk survey of the U.S. scene today-"truly a golden age for women"-and then goes straight to work on how to get the mining done. "First take off all your clothes and stand in front of a full-length mirror and look at yourself. Be brave, for this is going to be a shock." It is likely to be more than that-in view of the dreadful revelation of "bulges in the wrong places." a ghastly "sag" in the abdomen, the flesh "flabby" overall, and blown up bolsterwise into "a roll around the midriff...

The best bits...
