Ask Vodkapundit, aka Stephen Green:
I started losing weight a few months ago. Nothing serious, just enough to get friends asking if I’d lost any weight. I denied it at first, but then I had buy all new Levi’s in a waist size I hadn’t worn since the late Eighties.
I won’t spoil the ending, just read it.

His degree of denial is amazing. Reminds me of my brothers – they practically need to be comatose prior to seeking medical care.
