| This lady is terribly overweight, so her doctor put her on a diet. "I want you to eat regularly for 2 days, then skip a day, and repeat this procedure for 2 weeks. The next time I see you, you'll have lost at least 5 pounds." When the lady returns, she's lost nearly 20 pounds. "Why, that's amazing!" the doctor says. "Did you follow my instructions?" The lady nods, "I'll tell you, though, I thought I was going to drop dead that third day." "From hunger, you mean?" "No, from skipping all day." |
