Default Good excuse not to diet!

My friend Sheila told me that there was a robbery at her sister's friend's workplace. The robbers tied up the staff but when it came to the friend, she was too fat for the robbers to try and tie her hands behind her back!

I do not know the outcome (she is ok though) but I thought if any of us are desperately looking for an excuse not to diet - well here you are!!!

Yes, joking apart it must have been doubly humiliating!

Still, that'll teach them for picking on a fattie!

Is a horrible thing to happen, I hope that was one detail the journalists tactfully didn't mention. The poor woman would have been humilated enough with the robbery without her being publicily singled out, although that is the stuff some 'skinnies' out there like to read.

Apologies to all 'skinnies' who don't.
