Wearing the wrong colors, cuts, prints, sizes and even undies can make a difference in how much you appear to weigh! Come on, you know this right? Don't you have that comfy piece of clothing you wear in the privacy of your own home ... like those way-too-big sweat pants? And you know, while wearing your comfy clothing, if you turned around and investigated how your posterior looked in the mirror, it would probably appear much larger than it really is right? But hey, when we wear those kinds of clothes it's not for appearances, it's for comfort! I've got some flannel pajama bottoms that only a select few can ever catch a glimpse off me in ... huge and oh so comfy. The plaid pattern does nothing for my, ahem, "bottom line."

Yet, just as some clothes can make you look larger than you are, others may make you appear thinner. How about 5 lbs thinner? Check out this item I wrote for our Summer Slimdown Guide entitled "Dress to Impress:Lose 5 lbs Instantly!". Yes indeed, you can look thinner! Check it out!
