Does Your Back End Waddle

Does your back end waddle like a duck? Does your rear sway from side to side? Is there a huge rumbling when sitting down With large ripples in your hide? Perhaps it's that second piece of apple pie Or that box of chocolates you consumed I've seen you down an extra large pizza Without taking a breath until June! There is a cure for this age old problem It's called pushing away from the table But it sure takes a lot of intestinal fortitude For some of us we're just not able! Do you ever get totally discouraged And think you're losing your mind You're definitely in the majority today The country's sliding in the brine! There's still hope for all us tubby people But we really must try to persevere Forego that second large piece of apple pie And a trimmer you will appear! © Jack Ellison 2014

I can't bring myself to eat a whole pie at one time, so eat big pieces, several times a day. To stop myself I make small pies and just enough to feed Hubby and me at Dinner... I can't eat his! LOL! Dragon usually sneaks most away... So I hide them. But Trolls and Dragons have great noses. Sigh! I tried putting them in tupperware and spreading instant coffee over them. Didn't work. Some one always saw me make them... Munch, Munch!So we now just make them last thing before sitting down to dinner!

I've been known to eat half a pie at one sitting! Could that be the reason I've got a Santa Claus belly? Big fat loving hugs from chunky Kenny! XOXOX
