One reads ad nauseam about desperate Americans trying to lose their fat (call it what it is) and attempting one fad diet after another.

There is one way, sure and proven, to lose weight. Instead of waddling around and complaining, they can volunteer their services in any African country and live as those impoverished do.

Perhaps they could join a humanitarian group such as the Peace Corps; missionaries to their churches; Medicins Sans Frontieres (otherwise known as Doctors Without Borders); or even, perish the thought, the United Nations.

Within six months to a year, not only will they have decreased their girth, but expanded their minds as well. -
