A National Fear Of The Bathroom Scales Cured By Spanx Shapewear
I’m sure it’s safe to say that millions of women everyday make the same, terrifying journey, at the crack of dawn, with nerves all over the place… to the bathroom scales.
We slowly place one reluctant foot onto the scales… (of course at this point we have removed any scrap of fabric/jewellery from our body as not to accidentally increase our weight, that would just be silly!) …the second foot is now approaching the platform that will determine our mood for the rest of the day and as it finds its place we automatically breathe in, maybe if we look thinner the scales will be fooled? Then with one eye tightly shut, and the other only just able to make out a clear image, we take a quick painful peek.
Then comes one of three outcomes:
1) Wahooo you’ve magically lost a pound or two… you’re feeling fabulous and the world is your oyster.
2) Great, you’ve stayed the same. Pheww, that cream cake was a real risk yesterday.
3) Complete devastation – the world is about to end, you’ve added an extra pound or two and you feel like a flabby failure. You check the scales by stepping off and trying again but no change, then you quickly remember you forgot to take your earrings out, you pull at your ears and feel nothing there. Now you sulk off into the shower knowing the rest of your day will be full of disasters.
It’s time to get ready for work and you feel like nothing fits, your skirt feels tight and your blouse seems to be tense down the seams. You have an important meeting and need to feel confident. Before you call in sick consider your lingerie. Are you wearing the right bra? Does it fit correctly?
