He's right, but you can pretty easily find large or Powerful Build races with only a +1LA. This can be bought off (using the rules from Unearthed Arcana) at 3rd level.

Hope that helps.

You could buy a permanency enlarge. Or PAO.

I recommend against relying upon a single spell for prestige class qualification. What happens if you get dispelled?

Half-ogre from Savage Species is a good race for this. They're large, and have a nice strength bonus.

If you can use Dragon magazine material, there's the half-minotaur template, which gives a Strength bonus and increases your size by one step (medium -> large) and gives you the bonuses listed on this table (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/improvingMonsters.htm#sizeIncreases). So you get +12 Str, large size, and some other minor goodies for +1 LA.
