Iowa Fat Chick Ate a Tapeworm

She was fat and wanted to lose weight and keep eating all things fried. So she bought a tapeworm from the internet and ate it. Sounds like a smart diet plan for fatties across the state of Iowa.

From Foxnews here:

A dieter in Iowa ordered a tapeworm off the Internet in a desperate bid to lose weight and then told her doctor about her extreme weight loss measure.

Iowa’s Public Health Department medical director Dr. Patricia Quinlisk told the (doctor) to prescribe an anti-worm medication and then issued a warning to health workers about the dangerous practice.

She said: “Ingesting tapeworms is extremely risky and can cause a wide range of undesirable side effects, including rare deaths,” she wrote.

“Those desiring to lose weight are advised to stick with proven weight loss methods; consuming fewer calories and increasing physical activity.”

I wonder if we can get Honey Boo Boo and her fat mom to eat some tapeworms? And by the way, eating tapeworms will be the standard diet plan under Obamacare.
