Flipping channels at 3:30 am will give you the chance to purchase some of the greatest items in the world! One such item that caught my eye this morning was labeled on television as “No Need to Diet – Look up to 20 pounds thinner instantly!” Seriously… how could I not watch that?

Apparently it’s this body shaping girdle or something. The advert has women excitedly revealing how many inches the “Kymaro body shaper” has helped them hide. (that’s false advertising, IMO–but that’s not my point here). I think what bothers me most about this item is how it is sold. I’m sorry, but it is NOT that difficult to eat sensibly. You don’t even have to eat “healthy“, just sensible.

I flipped off the channel after just a few minutes and searched for their product online. The first hit was an “As Seen On TV” type site. I was going to grab the image to use in this post, but it was too small. I clicked the ‘larger image’ link to grab that one. As you can see by the image below. That did not work either.

It’s a pet peeve of mine. grrr
