Miracle Weight Loss Solution Just Slightly Convex Mirror

Dr. Gregor Jefdel last month launched a vigorous ad campaign for his “Break-Through Body-Size Reduction Solution”. An ad played often on the radio boasts, “Imagine looking at the mirror a week from now and see yourself insanely thinner and taller. This goal, once thought impossible, is now easily attainable with Dr. Gregor Jefdel’s Miracle Invention!” This claim, while technically truthful, has come under fire from a number of groups for feeding off body image insecurities and also that is just a slightly convex mirror.

Julia Mezfert, leader of the political lobbying group Americans for Realistic Body-Images Now!!! spoke out against the new device. “This is yet another snake-oil salesman in the legacy of Dr. Oz trying to make a quick buck from the generations of young people who are told by society that they need to have thin, perfect bodies,” said Mendel. “And if that’s not enough, it doesn’t actually work. It’s just one of those fun-house mirrors that make you look cartoonishly tall and thin.”
