Weight Problems

All my life I've been trying to put on weight.

From being a nine stone weakling to a.......but wait! Weight? I'm not yet
nine stone In 1937, when I joined the Army, I weighed in at 119lbs,
(8st 7lbs). I am now 8st 12lbs so I have managed a five pound gain
over the years. But, recently, after a blood test, I discovered that this
gain is in danger of being lost. I've been diagnosed as having thyroid
trouble which could lead to weight loss.
If some clever dick out there could manipulate the thyroid of all those
weight-watchers who are desperate to lose weight, someone could
emerge from being a nonentity to being a non-nonentity
