Skipping food

An Irishman was terribly overweight, so his doctor put him on a diet.
"I want you to eat regularly for 2 days, then skip a day, and repeat
this procedure for 2 weeks. The next time I see you, you should have
lost at least 5 pounds.
When the Irishman returned, he shocked the doctor by having lost nearly
60lbs!
"Why, that's amazing!" the doctor said, "Did you follow my instructions?
"
The Irishman nodded..."I' ll tell you though, by jaesuz, I t'aut I were
going to drop dead on dat 3rd day."
"From the hunger, you mean?" asked the doctor. "No, from the skippin"
