Short-term skinny

I got a waist trainer for my birthday. It’s a holy-shit tight corset that works temporary magic. You struggle for 5 minutes to put it on and when you’re done, you look fabulous. It makes your boobs pop and makes your waist perfect.

What it actually does: it gives an immaculate immediate effect, it gives you the posture your mother always tried to drill into you and you honestly want to eat less because there’s less space.

There are many downsides to it too. It gives you this lump of back fat that looks like you’ve got a roll of polony stuffed in your shirt, it’s kind of uncomfortable but you do get used to it, it does fuck all to shape you permanently(don’t believe the lies). The worst thing is that you’ll usually wear it when you go somewhere fancy and what happens when you go somewhere fancy? You’re probably going to be eating. I look like a million bucks but I can’t enjoy this meal to the full extent? I know these priorities might seem warped but all in all, it’s not that worth it.

What I do is wear it for the first half hour of the evening, take the full-length photos, then I inconspicuously unclip it and put it in my bag. Well, I hope it’s inconspicuous.

In conclusion, it looks good but don’t believe in its powers too much.

PS: the relief from taking this thing off overshadows the relief from any bra you’ve taken off.
