My friend came out of my bathroom one day and announced, “You have a skinny mirror.”
I was confused. Because it’s actually a really wide mirror. So she had to explain, “It makes you LOOK skinny.” And my friend seemed to think this was a good thing.
But it had me worried. Because I’d been looking in that mirror for a year and a half and feeling pretty good about myself.
I mean, yeah, some of my jeans were getting kind of tight. But I looked OK. So you can see how deceptive a skinny mirror is.
I decided to ignore my mirror and listen to my jeans. And then I pulled out a crazy thing called a scale. Boy, that guy doesn’t mince words.
My scale has me convinced to count my calories and my carbs and how much candy I eat. There is actually a piece and a half of cheesecake in my fridge. It’s been there ALL DAY and I haven’t eaten it. So I think things are going pretty well.
I just hope my scale starts saying nicer things to me, or I’m going back to my skinny mirror.
