“Just 1 cup before bedtime,” the text message said. “Take off your huge stomach.”
I read it to my daughter.
“Your stomach isn’t huge,” she responded teasingly.
I’m not sure I liked her emphasis on “huge.”
At least she didn’t restate the message to say “massive” or “colossal” or anything like that.
“Don’t click on the message!” she added.
“I kind of figured that out,” I said.

subcutaneous fat, and it sort of jiggles when you flick it or pinch it.

visceral fat because it forms around your
viscera deep in the belly near your internal organs. It doesn’t jiggle; it’s firm to the poke.
Men are more prone to depositing fat in this abdominal danger zone than women, who tend to wear it in their butt, hips, and thighs.
