Overweight? Unhappy?

I have a great marketing idea.

Nausea pills!!!

If we feed nausea-inducing pills to the fat public three times a day they will lose weight, sign testamonials and send big checks!~!

why haven't I thought of this evil plan before?

oh, PS. Chemo and radiation combo makes me nauseaous. I've lost weight. I think this is one small step for me, one big leap for the overweight (like me)

Actually there are many diet pills that do just that.
But if you're like me, nausea makes you so desperately unhappy that you'd do anything to make it stop.

Sorry to hear you're suffering from it.
The weight loss is a minor consolation.

thanks, Sundae, you are so sweet. This is only minor nausea, though, so you can rough it out but thinking of food just makes you wanna hurl.

I like the orange flavored idea...

Starting next year, you won't need any nausea pills here in the States. Between the TV conversion, and whichever of the 3 Stooges gets elected, we'll all be nauseated, 24/7. It's the government's evil plan to stop American obesity.

Oh, great. Someone else who is exploring the dubious delights of bulimia as a weight-control technique.

Just don't go there, okay? Vomit makes your breath smell bad, and if you have bad breath your best friends won't tell you even if your breath is bad enough to wilt the pot plants.

What if we're underweight? And not happy about it?

I suggest weight training and plenty of good, nutritious food.

Unable due to lifestyle issues.

My doctor said to put on some weight or he'd tie me to a hospital bed and do it for me.

Have you tried a butt plug? I mean for plugging, not for fun.
