Fat is Back
What should I do today
Doing everything the same way
Watching too much TV
It’s putting weight on me
Lack of movement causing pain
Knees hurt due to weight gain
My back hurts if I stand to long
Clothes to tight especially my bra
Sweets make my day
Trouble putting them away
No will power to keep at bay
When I walk my body sways
Going to

Guaranteed Weight-Loss Program
Vast sums of money
enormous chunks of time
All spent on losing weight ~
usually ruined by dinnertime
It's really quite easy
now I know that sounds cheezy
But here's the one thing that

Caloric Conundrum
The cheesecake in the bakery I want to devour,
dag-gone my crumbling willpower!
It's cherry topping so high,
makes me want to cry.
I walk on past the candy aisle,
and gaze at the cereal shelves awhile.
Euell Gibbon's "sticks and pebbles"
Grape Nuts brand-
that kind of breakfast I cannot stand.
Give me a cupcake piled with frosting,
never mind, the "guilt calisthenics"
afterwards

Weight Loss 101
Around my hips, too much weight
In place of a stomach, I've a spare tire
My face is pudgy, slightly bloated
Dark forces against me conspire ...
But I've reversed course, I'm shedding pounds
Part of me's now in the Lost & Found

How Do We Get So Obese
It’s called, ’excessive fork to mouth disease’.
Overeating too much of what we please.
Sitting excessively on our derrière?
Watching TV, or writing poetry with magical flairs?
Lockdowns were absolutely no excuse.
Blaming it on “Climate Change…”a bad joke and so incredibly obtuse.
Get off our buttoxes and exercise at home.
It’s OK, to leave your great, altar of the internet, alone!
We

Weight Loss Wonder
I really can't believe it!
It's that time of the week again!
Will the scale taunt me
Or prove to be my friend?
I've kept focussed, lowered syns,
Stayed faithful to the plan.
But at times the scale tells me
That it's not my biggest fan!
Yes, this can be demoralising
Can make a person blue,
Could fog out their future vision,
Make them wonder what

Inner Critic
Within without inside out screaming
The pain is unbearable you beasty twit
If you would just lose a leg or an arm
Crippled down bunched up dreaming
Your back is like a rack of ribs on a spit
Shut off this awful belly juggling alarm
Turn up turn out cantankerous filled brain
Take a damn load off before you faint

Dancing Kate
A graceful young lady named Kate
would shimmy and leap and gyrate.
Her copious whirling,
maniacal twirling
caused Kate to shed half of her weight.

Dancefloors of Derbyshire
This was the year that I Iost all my flab,
Met so many people
Ì'm really quite glad
That i put on my shoes
And took to the floor,
Watch out 2020,
I'll be back for more!
This time last year you were strangers to me,
And now i see some of you four times a week!
I watch you all dancing, growing and

Commit To the Grind
When you work hard, I know that you’ll find,
That so long as you really don’t mind,
Holding your feet to the grind,
Your efforts will reflect back to you.
A few years ago, I needed to lose weight,
Because my health really wasn’t great,
And when I looked in the mirror, I would hate
What was reflected back to me.
I

Resolved Again
Resolved: I’ll make a MOCKERY of death,
metaphoric wake may open my eyes.
I’ll ADORN kitchen walls with shibboleth -
an OPULENCE of signs which look passé.
using words like “Get Up and Exercise”,
“Calories Count” and “Don’t Forget to Weigh.”
I will EXULT VICARIOUS free time:
tasting all those shows on the loss of weight,
eating less, letting those dinner bells chime,
keeping

Battle of the Weightloss Drama
BATTLE OF THE WEIGHT LOSS DRAMA
Here's the halfway mark,
of the weight loss embark,
and if you're like most who at least get started.
Somewhere during the course,
you fell off the horse,
and now you're feeling dishearted..
But remember all’s not loss,
you’re still the boss,
so never, toss, the babe out with the bathwater,
The Yo-yo's are apart of it,
you knew
