Her aunts! That was the answer. They would be able to give her advice, maybe there was even a spell to help her shed a few pounds...
With a point of her finger, she disappeared in a shower of golden sparkles, just as Roxy opened the bedroom door.
"Hey Sabrina, I..." The dark haired girl broke off as she realised the room was empty. "What the?" She asked, looking around in amazement.
Morgan poked her head in the door. "Maybe she went out the window." She said, naively.
Roxy glanced at the window, measuring it up. "I don't think she would fit..."

With a second shower of golden sparkles, Sabrina appeared in her old bedroom, the familiar surroundings easing her mind. She stretched and yawned, only to hear a all too familiar voice from behind her.
"Whoa! Full moon on the horizon!" Salem smirked, as Sabrina's shirt rose up over her bigger butt.
"Salem!" She cried, turning around and pulling her shirt down. "What are you doing in my room?"
Salem stood up and made for door. "I was just trying to make the best of it before Hilda and Zelda turn it into a workout room. Speaking of working out..."
Sabrina grabbed a pillow and threw it at the cat, who let out a hiss before darting away. She then decided to get dressed, finding an old pair of track pants that looked like they would fit. She pulled them on, and they were fine, if a little snug around her rear.
She made her way down stairs, to find her aunts in the kitchen. Zelda was sorting through some post while Hilda was buttering a slice of toast. They both turned to look at her as she came downstairs, their faces lighting up.
"Sabrina!" They said in unison, as she sat down at the table. "And how's our favourite niece doing today?" Zelda asked.
"Uh, I'm okay." She murmured, reaching for a slice of toast and some jelly. What was the best way to bring this up?
"Um, Aunt Zelda, when you went to college, did you ever find you had any trouble with... um..."
Zelda smiled. "Let me guess, you've put on a few pounds, and you're feeling self-conscious."
Sabrina sighed with relief, but stood up to show them the extent of the damage. "It's more than a few pounds."
Hilda whistled. "Still, don't worry about it Sabrina. I remember when Zelda came home from her first year of college, and she..."
Zelda interrupted primly. "Now, you have to remember it was attractive to be a little heavy back then."
"A little heavy? You were the only woman who could make Henry the Eight look skinny!" Hilda laughed, as Zelda scowled.
Sabrina looked at her rail thin aunt. "Really? How did you lose it?"
Zelda smiled. "Hard work and discipline, honey. There's no quick fix I'm afraid."
Sabrina frowned, but at least they understood what she was going through. "Thanks guys, I'm going to head upstairs and grab a few more things with elastic waistbands, at least for now."
She walked back upstairs, panting a little as she reached the top, and re-entered her room. Salem was on her bed again, leafing through a telephone directory.
"Good news Sabrina, I found a contractor who can reinforce your bed for you!" He said, grinning.
"Oh ha ha," She laughed, as she went back to her closet. "Why don't you look up taxidermists?"
"Or, you could just look up a spell to get rid of the extra weight?" He suggested.
"Aunt Zelda said there wasn't a spell that could do that." Sabrina said, turning around, intrigued.
"Not exactly, but there are ways around that. You could transfer the weight to someone else, or somewhere else in your body."
Sabrina thought back to what Zelda had said earlier. "Could I just change it so its attractive to be fat?"
"I guess." Salem replied. "So what are you going to do?
