Ah, springtime.... Time to bury those coats in the back of the closet (or just push them all the way to the left or right until they fall off the hangers on to the floor) Yes time to realize those cloth's you bought last season at a huge discount will not fit, so do not try, I repeat, give up you look silly its not the mirror. Do not throw out the scale.... It's not broken. Instead go on one of the many sucessful fad diets that will suit your needs like "don't eat anything that casts a shadow" or "eat anything you want through a straw" I heard it worked for Terry Schiavo... Nyuk-Nuyk.. Anyway it's nice to be in the light again Even if I am casting a very big shadow...
