Sigh. She slipped helium balloons under her dress to try to weigh less, i.e., to “float” some of her weight. @lutherg1 — while many gassy foods like broccoli, cucumbers and beans are part of a good weight loss diet, it’s just for the fibre, not because methane weighs less.
Methane is somewhat lighter than air. I had a wierd friend who was a sports car nut. He would fill a dry cleaner bag with natural gas, attach 25 feet of aluminum foil, and chase it in his car. He was ready to launch one time when some MIBs stopped him. Seems the airport radar was getting varying intensities of radar bounces as the foil rotated.

Jazzybella & Lingeewhiz, No, she (errantly) thought that she could reduce the scale’s weight reading by stuffing helium balloons up her dress.

About as effective as jumping up in a falling elevator just before it hits the bottom.
