Yo-Yo Dieting

Is yo-yo dieting always inevitable Is it apart of who we all are Sure wish there was some magic way Really this is totally bizarre Winter months are usually toughest We pack on the extra pounds Must get dedicated with spring's arrival It's really getting me down To keep the pounds from coming back Requires dedication and inner strength We surely aren't all up to the task To journey that extra length Rewards are great if you can keep it off More power to those that do It sure takes dedication and perseverance Not all of us can see it through Well to all those really dedicated souls Here's wishing you a ton of success It's certainly a difficult thing to accomplish But your friends, you'll surely impress Is yo-yo dieting always inevitable Is it apart of who we all are © Jack Ellison 2014

I don't worry about gaining weight back. You either if you adopt a Dragon egg! Honest! And you'll never be bored... Dragon said to tell you: You'll end up with some really great bling! There are a few things on the down sides, tho! Yeah! Dragon! There are! Like the food bill, and insurance costs. But you won't be buying extra junk food... No Dragon... I'll still get you your chocolate chip cookies, and more hot chocolate... I said junk food... not comfort food... Gotta keep Dragon happy! LOL

Yes it just may be Jack. I can't lose it and then naturally it never sticks.
