One of the most earth shattering moments a woman can have is seeing her reflection. When I’m experiencing one of those dreaded fat, ugly, pimply, and greasy days,the only thing I want on the horizon is a pair of sweats (holes and stains optional) and a large amount of heart unhealthy food. Sometimes the only thing that seems to fit on these days is a pint of Ben & Jerry's. I convince myself I am having a day of liberation as I head to the grocery store to stock up on the feed. This is when it happens: WARNING! INCOMING: REFLECTION!!!
There you are, innocent and ghastly, walking along with your friend (fat supporter; enabler, if you will), laughing (chortling!) because you are liberated, comfortable, and about to consume about 3 weeks worth of food, when you turn your head and see your reflection in a store window. Laughing?! LAUGHING!! Look at yourself! Why are you laughing?!! The sight is appalling and enough to slap you back to reality. Harsh? Yes. However, rarely is it enough to stop the call of Sara Lee.
