Cait Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 (edited) 'Twas the Month after Christmas 'Twas the month after Christmas, And all through the house, Nothing would fit me, Not even a blouse. The cookies I'd nibbled, The chocolate I'd taste At the holiday parties Had gone to my waist. When I got on the scales There arose such a number! When I walked to the store Less a walk than a lumber. I'd remember the marvellous meals I'd prepared; The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rared; The wine and the rum balls, the bread and the cheese; And the way I'd never said, "No thank you, please." As I dressed myself in my husband's old shirt, And prepared once again to do battle with dirt, I said to myself, as I only can, "You can't spend a winter disguised as a man!" So, away with the last of the sour cream dip. Get rid of the fruit cake, every cracker and chip. Every last bit of food that I like must be banished, Till all the additional ounces have vanished. I won't have a cookie, not even a lick. I'll want only to chew on a celery stick. I won't have choc biscuits, or peanuts, or pie. I'll munch on a carrot and quietly cry. I'm hungry, I'm lonesome, and life is a bore. But isn't that what January is for? Unable to giggle, no longer a riot. Happy New Year to all, and to all a good diet. pig It wouldn't allow the dynamic images so I've just done a link to one Edited January 19, 2010 by Cait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyMaz Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Last time I heard this was at the first post-Christmas weight watchers meeting. She seemed to think it was funny... However for most of us it was a bit too close for comfort! Tis good to chuckle over our misfortunes though! Maz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
