A fellow was terribly overweight, so his doctor put him on a newly discovered diet.
"I want you to eat regular meals for 2 days, then skip a day, and repeat this procedure for 2 more weeks. The next time I see you, you should have lost at least 5 pounds."
When the man returned, he shocked his doctor by having lost nearly 60 pounds. "Why, that's amazing!" the doctor said. "Did you follow my instructions?"
The man nodded, "I'll tell ya'll though, I thought I was going to drop dead the 3rd day."
"From hunger, you mean?"
"No, from all the friggin' skippin'."
