Wool Sweaters and Getting Rid of Food Baby

Part I

My husband watched a video today about getting rid of "Food Baby." You know that pouchy thing that resembles being pregnant, but caused by eating?

Part II

During my Mitten Knittin' class last month, besides learning how to REALLY knit a mitten, I learned about felting, and that if you take a wool sweater and boil and agitate it, it will shrink. To demonstrate to my husband, I put on an XL wool sweater I got at a second hand store, explaining how it will get small.

Part II

Hubby: Will that work with my Food Baby? Will it shrink if I boil and agitate it?
