Will Power

This morning my weekly weigh-in was due
I screamed, surely it just couldn't be true
I tried not to cheat
But oh.. something sweet
Out the window my damned will power flew

Oh boy, can I relate. Well done, its just not fair, how easy it is to lose will power and how easy it is to gain weight, should be the other way round, don't you think? Well done!! Congratulations on your win. Lee
