Story No.26
You should go on a diet.
- I'm hungry! I haven't had anything to eat since last night. I want to eat a big breakfast.
- I can't eat anything since I've already had breakfast!
- Oh, what would you like to have then?
- A Basil dog from Larry's or French fries from Burger Emperor!!
- Oh, that's boring! How about that new steak house?
- Steak? I don't like meat so much. You're fat because you eat all afternoon! Shouldn't you be dieting! Doing something about your pouch!!
- I can't help it! I'm always so hungry! I'm not as fat as you make me out to be!
- You are fat! Right now it's okay but as you grow older, you may have a lot of problems like high blood pressure, diabetes, stroke, or gout!
- Don't scare me!
- It's true. Obesity is the cause for a lot of diseases. There are doctors who think that obesity itself is a disease.
- Is that so?
- Indeed!
- If that's true then shouldn't you also stop eating French fries?
- What do you mean by that!!
