Too Fat to Play Hoops
Who would have thought there were so many extra useless calories lurking in an innocent bottle of beer, or two, or three. I have been indulging on the weekends for years and never thought much about it. Yesterday, however, one of my friends patted my paunch and sighed. He said it was too bad that I was too out of shape to play basketball anymore. I was stunned when he added, “You need to lose your beer gut.” Did I look that bad? Was my friend right? Too many beers and too little exercise had weakened my body. I doubted I could get through five minutes of one-on-one. This has got to change!
