Brigett Hurley Poet Dramatic Verse

Dieting

What do I eat when I'm at the table.
I see lettuce, I see cheese and i see apples.
There are so many choices for me to make.
Its important for me to make the right one.
The best I can do is stop and think and realize that
I can only chew as much as my mouth can handle.
When it comes time to eat again, i will know that I 
can have a little of each.
Why am I being so picky about how I see things.
I guess its time to drink some water.
Making the right choice requires time.
I know i'm missing something.  Oh, its the exercise.
The most important one of all.  
It only shows to see that thinking and smiling while I'm thinking is
nourishing and relaxing for me.

Jan Allison November 21, 2014 at 6:35 PM I guess dieting is about getting the right balance of food and exercise but its down to everything in moderation - I've seen girls as young as 10 with eating disorders mainly anorexia - that is so so sad. great write:-) Hugs Jan xx Brigett Hurley November 24, 2014 at 1:58 PM Yes, very true.
