You might consider using the liquify tool (warp or pucker). I think this would be much easier than using the transform>scale tool.

Maybe like this? A little liquify tool and some clone stamping to fix the BG.

With a full size image, a much better job can be done.

Now of course I could have done more, but then it wouldn't be her, would it?

Nice Tom, but I think the BG needs more work. The repeating clone pattern draws my eye immediately. I find that I spend almost as much time on the BG as I do on the subject.

I think she should have to pay for her tummy tuck just like the rest of us.

Thanks for the tip everyone. I will try that later today. I like Scott's version since the others look like they took away too much. I just needed it to be a bit subtle. But thanks for everyone's replies.
