A woman went to her doctor for a check-up. The scale didn’t lie—she had gained a few more pounds than expected.
The doctor looked thoughtful and said,
“Here’s what I want you to do: Eat normally for two days, then skip the third day completely. Repeat this pattern for two weeks. I guarantee you’ll lose at least five pounds.”
She nodded and promised to follow the plan exactly.
Two weeks later, she returned—noticeably thinner, hair a little messy, and eyes slightly wild.
The doctor looked shocked.
“Wow! You’ve lost over ten pounds! That’s incredible! Did you follow the diet?”
She sighed and replied,
“Yes, but I thought I was going to die…”
The doctor raised an eyebrow. “From hunger?”
“No,” she said.
“From all that skipping!”
😄 Moral of the story: Always read between the lines… or between the meals!
