Sgt Andrews:
Captain Harris sent me to the dispensary yesterday. And,
unfortunately, the doctor agreed with his opinion. I need to lose
weight. I weigh twenty pounds more than I should.
Did the doctor put you on a fitness program?
Well, the doctor put me on a diet, and Captain Harris and the
doctor together worked out an exercise program for me.
Tell me about your diet.
Well, I have to cut down on potatoes and bread, and I have to cut
out sweets completely.
‘That's pretty hard. What about exercise?
They gave me a choice of exercise activities. The doctor suggested
that I swim laps. Captain Harris suggested that I swim laps, jog,
and lift weights.
Are you supposed to do all of these activities every day?
No, not all of them every day, but all of them regularly. I'm
supposed to swim laps on Saturdays and Tuesdays; I'm supposed
to jog on Mondays and Thursdays; and I'm supposed to lift
weights on Wednesdays and Fridays.
Well, good luck with your fitness program. I know that you'll feel
better, and I'm sure that you'll have a lot more energy too.
