Skinny Day..Oops, no..Fat Day!

We all have those mornings - we wake up and the sun is shining. We meander to our closet, humming a favorite tune while the children play happily in the background, the pets are being ideal, and your husband is not asking, "Honey! Where is my...."

We stare into our closets and pull out an old, but somehow appealing, outfit and think about how great we're going to look in it. Then we jump into our warm showers. Our humming becomes a song or two. Our hair feels so silky smooth that we just know it's going to be a great day! We dress, dry our amazing hair, round up the children for school and get twice as much work done as we had hoped in so many less hours! Yes! The day is going wonderfully! And.....We look totally hot in our outfits - Our bulges are hidden and somehow, if only every day was like this, even our panty lines are hidden!

Lunch is a quick salad with ice water and a slice of lime. How impressed we are with our will power! We walk right by the brownie without so much as a slow to our gait. The afternoon flows just as smoothly. A wonderful day, indeed!

Back home with the kids, dinner is cooking and we take one more trip to the bathroom to just take a last peek at how we look for dear hubby when he returns from his hard day at work. Lo and behold - what have we here? A muffin top? When the hell did that appear? A quick turn in the mirror exposes a bum a little bigger than we had remembered. Hmph! And our boobs - Wait a second! They weren't reaching for our knees this morning! What are they, tired?

Our head hangs a little lower. Our responses are clipped and not quite so friendly. A low muttering about the G-D salad we just had to have for lunch crosses our lips. The weather? Who the hell cares at this point! Our skinny day has just gone to hell!

Anyone else's skinny days end up being fat days? Or am I alone in this phenomenon?
