I am Rachael's (Sarah's sister), roommate. Since size is so important to all of you, perhaps you'd like to know that she is actually a size 4. The camera really does add quite a few pounds. Sarah spent the weekend with us here for Rachael's collegiate graduation, and even Sarah looks a LOT skinnier in person than on TV.

...and about the dress. Rachael just finished her coursework for a degree in architecture on Friday afternoon and had absolutely NO TIME to find a dress before leaving for LA yesterday.

Rachael is far from overweight, and yes she is endowed, btu Sarah is as well. Being an architecture student myself, I can tell you that lighting can play a significant factor in how one's body looks. Rach tried on the dress for us Saturday night and it looked fine. We were surprised tonight to see how it looked. She's already called, completely upset after seeing herself on the monitor.

Someone else said it earlier: Rachael did NOT choose to be on the Bachelor, and was only there to support her sister. Before you know the circumstances behind someone's appearance or consider the technical factors... please do not make such horrible comments. She reads this board from time to time and I don't know how she's going to react when she sees this.

I'm still appalled by the language and attitudes thrust forward here tonight. I'd like to see ANY of you that are bigger than a size 4 go on live TV and see what you look like...

God bless you all.
