Temporary fix to vanity...

froshman Posts: 441 Joined: 2003/07/12	2005/05/12, 07:36 PM I'm being forced to go suit shopping with the brides maids for an upcoming wedding (don't ask, just assume the whole thing sucks). I went to a personal trainer a couple of times years ago and he told me there was a way to temporarily look thinner fat-wise and buffer-muscle wise, but I got too interested in the weight training and forgot to pursue it, so I never asked him about it after that. So, I was wondering if there was anyone who might know how I can look better temporarily so that I can get past this damn experience.
