This is a belt that slowly grows longer to give the impression that the waist measurement is slowly getting smaller getting . Hopefully the wearer will get such a lift from thinking that all the dieting and exercising is at last showing results that they will double their efforts and really will lose weight.

       Might the opposite also start happening as panic eating sets in to compensate for perceived shrinkage? (see film Incredible Shrinking Man) [+] for your logic.

       This could be bad if the wearer never notices it stretching.
