When my wife and I decided to get a new kitchen range recently, we went with stainless steel. We like the look of it, and it shows everything, so, at least in my mind, that means it’s easier to keep clean, because you can see all the junk that has been splattered onto it. It’s in plain view.
A few months after our purchase, I updated my facebook status, saying how happy I was with our decision to go with a glass cooktop, double oven, and stainless steel finish.
One of my friends commented that he hates stainless steel, “because it’s so hard to keep clean.”
I countered with my thought on the subject — pretty much what I wrote above — and that was the end of the discussion.
It occurred to me only a few months later that what my friend really meant, although he’d never say it this way, was that stainless steel is “harder to leave dirty.”
In other words, his non-stainless steel range was probably a mess, but it was okay, because you couldn’t see the mess.
How about your body? Is it a mess that you are able to hide with loose clothing?
That only works for so long. At some point, you will no longer be able to disguise the fat. In fact, I am guessing that is why women in our society seem to be more prone to dieting than men, because women generally wear tighter-fitting clothes, so their excess baggage is more often on display.
Do you really think you look okay? Stop kidding yourself and others. If you are overweight, stop covering it up and do something about it.
And, really, I hope you understand that my point has nothing to do with the way you look. It has to do with your health. Overweight is just not as healthy as thinner. We all know that.
