Wow, how true. I found this today. I Hope you like it.

Only One Pound

Hello, do you know me?
If you don't, you should. I'm a pound of fat,
And I'm the HAPPIEST pound of fat that you would ever want to meet.
Want to know why?
It's because no one ever wants to lose me;
I'm ONLY ONE POUND, just a pound!
Everyone wants to lose three pounds, five pounds, or fifteen pounds, but never only one.
So I just stick around and happily keep you fat.
Then I add to myself, ever so slyly, so that you never seem to notice it.
That is, until I've grown to ten, twenty, thirty or even more pounds in weight.
Yes, it's fun being ONLY ONE POUND OF FAT, left to do as I please.
So, when you weigh in, keep right on saying, "Oh, I only lost one pound."
For you see, if you do this, you'll encourage others to keep me around because they'll think I'm not worth losing.
And, I love being around you - your arms, your legs, your chin, your hips and every part of you.
Happy Days!!!
After all, I'm ONLY ONE POUND OF FAT!!!

    Awesome post...I will have to look at this periodically so I don't forget that 1 little pound can add up quickly, in either direction!

    Thanks.

    I LOVE that!! Whoever wrote it was very insightful...thanks for posting this. I will try to remember this the next time I weigh in and only lose a pound. It's so hard not to be disappointed with a pound but it IS one less pound of fat on your body, that is so true!!
