Short and fat!!

 
Went to the doctor for my yearly physical.
The nurse starts with certain basics.
How much do you weigh?’ she asks.
 
’135,’ I say.  The nurse puts me on the scale. It turns out my weight is 180.  
The nurse asks, ‘Your height?’ ’5 feet 4″,’ I say.  The nurse checks and sees that I only measure 5’2″.
She then takes my blood pressure and tells me it is very high.
‘Of course it’s high!’ I scream, ‘When I came in here I was tall and slender! Now I’m short and fat!’
 
She put me on Prozac. What a witch.

    You know, this was so familiar to my ‘weigh ins’ at the doc’s office. I got quite a familiar feeling and laugh!
