-------------------   The Diet   -----------------------------------


 It had seemed like such a good idea when she had suggested it.  One hand 
swat on the bare bottom for each pound overweight.  But Frank knew that 
alone wouldn't be enough, as there was nothing that Jane liked more than to 
have her bottom warmed by hand.  So Frank insisted on a few other changes.  
There would be a program; one pound a week.  Any pounds over the program 
would earn a swat with the paddle.

  "No problem" Jane thought.  After all, when you have 60 pounds to lose, 
one a week should be easy.

 Then the real penalty was added.  *Any* weight gain from a previous week 
would change the hand spanks to paddles and the over pounds to cane swats.

  Once again, Jane accepted, as she was sure there would be no problems.  
But just the same, she wore extra clothing for her first weighing, and even 
loaded her pockets with small heavy objects just to give her an edge.

  The first week was easy, as all she had to do was leave out the extra 
objects from her pockets.  In fact, she was two pounds under, which gave 
her a running start.  After four weeks, she was weighing in without shoes.  
In another week, she was dressed in shorts.  Then down to panties and bra, 
and finally in the nude.

  Frank knew full well what was going on, but figured (rightfully so) that 
it would catch up to her in the end. So after seven weeks, the scale failed 
to show a weight that was seven pounds less than when she started.

  The single paddle swat helped a little, but only served to slow the rate 
at which she fell behind, not reverse it.  So after many more weeks, the 
number of overage swats grew to an even dozen.  Jane no longer looked 
forward to the weighing in ceremony, as the conclusion was always more 
painful than she really cared for the added incentive was finally enough to 
stop the slide.  But alas, it was not enough to get her to catch back up 
with the program.

  But now Jane knew that she was in trouble, as she had fallen off her diet 
big time. Here she stood before the scale, completely nude and out of 
tricks.  Weeks before she had already moved the adjusting knob as far as it 
would go in her favor.  If she cut her hair any shorter, Frank would be 
sure to object.  And last week she had even fasted the day of the weigh in.

  "Hurry up" Frank said impatiently.  Taking a deep breath, Jane stepped 
onto the scale.  It was no surprise when the needle stopped a full pound 
over last weeks reading, 12 pounds over the program, and 40 pounds over the 
goal.  That would be 40 swats with the paddle, and 12 with the cane.

  "OK, over the back of the chair" Frank commanded.

  No, maybe this wasn't such a good idea after all.....
