Around my house we’re excited for Halloween tonight. My youngest daughter decided to go as a flapper, and subsequently talked me into doing the same. My mini-me and I dressed the same may make a few of our friends nauseous, but I’m happy she still wants to hang out with me.

Anyway, I bought this cute flapper costume, and I don’t know if it’s just me, but do Halloween costumes run small? I got a size larger than I normally wear and would have gone larger if they’d had any in stock. The long and short of it is I was trying to shed a few pounds before the big day. I’m pretty sure flapper dresses are supposed to loose around the waist. Sigh.

So I used our Hot Box Detox several times this past week. I swear the thing is magic the way it gets rid of all the bad stuff in my body. After I’m done I always feel like a million bucks. And, guess what? I tried my dress on this morning and it’s fitting so much better. As my daughter would say, “Yay for me.”

What was the last event you tried to shed a few pounds for? High school reunion? Wedding?
