A Visit To The FAT Doctor

No, my doctor isn't fat. I am. Okay, so that's not the politically correct word. I guess I should say I'm "big" or "overweight". But really, I'm fat. Medically speaking, I'm "morbidly obese." That sounds scary and it should. It scare the hell out of me. So, I visited the fat doctor.

I use the term "fat doctor" because I watch a show shot in England called "The Fat Doctors." These two surgeons do nothing but gastric operations on people whose lives depend on whether or not they lose weight. Some of these people weigh as much as 500 lbs. While I'm not quite there yet, I've elected to go forth with a gastric bypass operation.
