I like to eat.

I was looking at an old copy of my enlistment physical and they have me at 6 foot one and 192 lbs. Nowadays I've shrunk down to six even and this morning I tipped the scales at 215 in my skivvies. I need to cut back a bit. But assuming she's about average height of say 5 foot five, that woman has to go at least a deuce and a half, maybe more.

My son who recently retired from the Army got himself a gig as an EMT and apparently it's been quite a shock to him to see first hand how fat and out of shape so many people are out in the civilian world. Last time I visited him we got on the subject of health care and I said how I thought everyone should have Medicare. He went on this rant about how that would be too expensive because the medical system is already overburdened with fat out of shape people.

So I just figured I'd pass that rant of his along to you.
