p>By my own definition, I don’t today consider myself obese,
although if “husky” sizes were still around I might still be
wearing this size. I’m just satisfied that I don’t yet have to go
to the “Big and Tall” section of the store to buy my clothes. One
of my concerns today is that I lose some weight. This may have two
possible effects. 1)It may prolong my life and 2) in case it
doesn’t, at least my pallbearers won’t be burdened with lifting and
carrying any more weight than they already have to carry. Otherwise
they might file a class action suit against my estate for the
hernia and herniated disc operations. Lawyers may find a way of
working this into a lawsuit against the food industry. What happens
if I don’t lose weight before I die? Cremation.
