    It’s just an exaggeration for laughs

    I also thought it was quite funny. I can’t imagaine any middle-agers not relating. (But Tim Allen did it better in The Santa Clause when the Dr. told him he was putting on a “little weight,” and Tim grabbed his Santa belly, jiggled it, and said, “You call this a ‘little weight’?”)

    I consider myself pretty fit, until I pull on a skin tight base layer before going out in the cold. It does not allow self delusion, and is probably similar in tightness to what Elly is wearing there.

    It’s an unfortunate fact of life that the older women get, the easier it is to acquire little unwanted belly paunches like this . . . and once you do, it’s even HARDER to work them off too. Damned hormones. It’s a real curse!!!

    I love this strip ,too. When I first started reading it Lizzie was about 3 years old. The ending was great. I was sad that it came to and end. Kinda like when “Frasier” ended. They were all like old friends.
