Hi


Got sent this by Curves and thought it was funny...


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 eggnog I'd taste
All 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 marvelous meals I'd prepared
The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rared

The wine and the rumballs,the bread and the cheese
And the way I'd never said 'no thankyou, please'

As I dressed myself in my husbands old shirt
And prepared once again to do battle with dirt

I said to myself, as only I can
You can't spend 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
Until all the additional ounzes have vanished

I won't have a cookie, not even a lick
I want only to chew on a long celery stick

I won't have hot biscuits or corn bread or pie
I'll munch on a carrot and quietly sigh

I'm hungry and lonesome and life is a bore
But isn't that what January is for?

Unable to giggle, no longer a riot
Happy new year and to all a good diet!!
