Holy Crap, I had to go to School..........

As you folks know I get my medical care at this, the West Palm Beach VA Medical Center. This is a very modern facility with state of the art equipment. I have been an in-patient here three times over the past 8 years since I retired from my second career. I am very thankful for the VA Medical System.

Well back to the subject of this post, each veteran has what VA calls a Primary Care Doctor. Well my PC doctor is Dr Murphy. She is a very nice, thoughtful and caring person who has my best interest at heart.

I have no idea why, but Dr Murphy thinks the Old Sarge is just a little too portly. When I saw her a few weeks back she discovered that instead of losing weight over the summer, as I had told her I would, I had gained 10 pounds. I think it really sucks but she is sending me to FAT SCHOOL.

Well today I went to my first class and I went early thinking they would have donuts and coffee for all the new students. Was I ever disappointed.

My teacher was a skinny young lady and she wants to teach me how to be fat, holy crap, I could teach her a few things about fat. I asked her about the donuts and she put me in the corner with a dunce cap.

Then she started talking about stuff that makes you fat and things we should and should not eat, portion control and crap like that. Then she told about problems she has, like Italian Bread, she said if she buys it she could eat the whole loaf while driving home. I wanted to know how she buttered the bread while driving.

I kept mentioning donuts and she told me I could not have any Krispy Kremes and I told her the only way she will get donuts away from me is to pry them out of my cold, dead, glazed, fingers........

And I thought FAT SCHOOL was to teach you how to be fat, turns out they are teaching you how not to be fat, what kind of dirty trick is that.......

Holy Crap, I had to go to School..........
