A blonde is terribly overweight, so her doctor put her on a diet. "I want you to eat regularly for two days, then skip a day, and repeat this procedure for four weeks. The next time I see you, you should have lost 5 to 10 pounds." When the blonde returned, she shocked the doctor by having lost over 20 pounds. "That's amazing!" the doctor said. "Did you follow my instructions?" The blonde nodded and said, "It was tough though. I thought I was going to drop dead that 3rd day." "From hunger, you mean?" "No, from skipping!"
