Noel~ you can reach your goal weight. Don't listen to nay sayers, give yourself time and keep writing humorous poems. You are a winner! Panagiota

I learned the best thing is to destroy the scale! You can try measuring with a tape measure...))) not kidding. Waist hips thighs, arms chest, etc. Keep a chart. I lost ton of inches but few pounds, I went from a 14 to a size 6! Give it a whirl. Besides that, your poem is accurate! People quit because of the scale~horrid scale. Good luck. Panagiota

Thanks Panagiota, Congrats on your size 6. I won a Humorous contest speech, trying to keep perspective on weight loss, my goal is to lose 20 lbs.

Ah, yes, I can relate so readily to this one. Have been there, and back, won the T-shirt.
