As far as I know, this is original. I first sent this as a memo to a friend at work. To: Personnel Medical Records Re: Family Medical History My supervisor told me you would like an explanation of the hereditary diseases plaguing my family. I hope you find this of interest. My family suffers from a variety of inherited eating disorders. The two most common afflictions are: 1. FATAREXIA NERVOSA: The fear of not being fat enough. You weigh 400 lbs., look in the mirror and cry, "My God! I'm wasting away!, I'm just not fat enough Quick! The twinkies!!" -- Almost all of my relatives are fatarexics. I am not fatarexic, I suffer from a rarer eating disorder: 2. The AMNESIAC BULEMIC SYNDROME: I binge and then forget to purge afterwards. For example, after eating half a cow, a 10lb. bag of potatoes, three cases of devil dogs, two gallons of Yoo-hoo and a bowl of jello (there's always room for jello) -- a typical breakfast, I sit down, dazed, staring at my fingers, looking towards the bathroom. I say to myself, "I know there's something I should be doing now, what is it?" After several minutes in a state of confusion, I give up and call Domino's (they may be reactionary chauvanist pigs, but they take VISA). I hope this information proves to be of use. By the way, the Weight Watchers class you recommended is right down the block from a great pizzeria...
