http://vet.osu.edu/1851.htm is one of many sites explaining 'Body condition scores' for animals. All mammals, it seems, can be checked using this system - and that should include us.
If you keep your body condition score around the healthy mark, then F--- what anyone else thinks!
As for clothing - you may have to learn to sew. If you can't get decent clothing in your size, and you can't get reliable mail, it's likely to be your only option. Short of taking trips back to the states with empty suitcases, and coming back with full ones, that is!
Fortunately, you can make quite a stylish wardrobe out of the 'very easy' beginner clothing patterns, these days. And we have a LOT of seamstresses on this board!
