New Years Limerick

On January 2nd there’s a lot of people working out
They’ve made New Year’s resolutions, no doubt
They want to get slim
So they come to the gym
By January 4th their resolve has fizzled out

Yes, I used to teach aerobics and noticed them all fizzling out by end of month. That is why I don't bother to resolve!! Good win, Joe.
