A poem for struggling Dieters written by me!

Why is it all we have to do

Is eat less then we'll lose

Many pounds and inches?

But food we seem to choose;

That's high in fat and calories

Sugar and really bad stuff

You'd think we'd have learnt by now

And know when enough's enough



Why is it all we have to do

Is exercise to lose the flab

Tone up all those loose muscles

To look absolutely fab?

Instead we pro-cras-tinate

We put things off a while

Our DVDs gather dust

Which looks particularly vile



We know what we have to do

To lose those stubborn thighs

We must eat a healthy diet

Not high fat chicken pies

We know the rules from back to front

But it seems to no avail

Because we slip up often enough

And feel as if we fail



Dear dieter although we falter

Do not live in despair

Because we can really do it

Our willpower is somewhere

Let's just focus on our goal

And aim to take small steps

And if we have a bad day

Just learn not to fret



None of us are hopeless

We all have some worth

Even if we find it hard

To lose our x-large girth

So come on fellow dieters

Chin up don't be sad

Dieting isn't rocket science

It isn't all that bad...
