Where Does It All Go ....?

When you have your hair cut, you can see the evidence of your mission as the hair drops to the floor (and down your back!) at the mercy of the stylists’ scissors.  You can see the hair being swept up by some poor long-suffering sweeper-upper and disposed of.  Or sold to a wig makers perhaps ….

But when you diet, where does the weight go as you shed those unwanted pounds?  You don’t wake up in the morning and leave 1lb of blubber in bed, you don’t wash it away in the shower, or shave off a layer of lard as you get ready for work.  It just disappears, like magic! 

The same can be said for “Magic Pants” – without them, your outline may resemble the Michelin Tyre Man.  Don a pair of Magic Pants and hey presto – svelte and Kylie-esque in an instant (this of course assuming you can get into the bloody things in the first place!).  Although admittedly one has to be careful with Magic Pants:  the wobbly bits can have a tendency to roll over the waistband, thus giving the impression of some bizarre “I’m wearing a rubber ring under my outfit” outline, or at the other end of the garment, circulation to the legs can quite easily be cut off without the wearer realising – until you stand up and can’t feel your legs!

So, five weeks into the diet and half a stone lighter ….. but where does it all go!?!

  1. Diet - you pass it or you sweat it out - it's also to do with the calories taken in vs those used and things like that - if it was something visible or noticeable it might be easier to diet because you'd be able to see the "product".

    I've given up fizzy (again) and cutting down chocolate (I'm giving it up for Lent next week), cake isn't so much a giving up but it's a serious cutting down.
