It Takes Two Shakes to Lose Weight

It would be nice to shed about 25 pounds. There must be a good way to do it as I tried every program around.


Poem Artwork

 

I tried every diet on the market and this is what I found

 

Folks just want to make a buck; it’s the oldest trick around!

 

 

 

I have exercised on many different kinds of fancy machines

 

Diet pills, don't do a thing, if you know what I mean!

 

 

 

I tried powdered foods; add water and watch the fat melt away

 

Then tried frozen foods; just heat them, eat them and then pray!

 

 

 

Yoga, spinning and other exotic stretches make you thin and are fun

 

But after a few months of fun, my weight is the same as when I begun!

 

 

 

Now my new kick is drink two shakes and eat healthy the rest of the day

 

It’s seems to be working; I lost over five pounds in three days and still feel OK!

 

 

 

So, I will keep you all posted I’ll and let you know if it’s doing the trick

If not, it’s back to the drawing board to find another weight-loss kick!

You have to be in the right frame of mind for a diet to help you. You must be ready to accept disappointment as you travel down that weighty road. Good luck to you. I tried Slimfast shakes, but I was always hungry.

Most of my friends have tried different weight loss programs and Jerry is right. They are NOT worth it. However, we all need to find a plan we can live with. It's like smoking, in order to quit I had to substitute cigarettes with spearmint chewing gum. But that was 30 years ago and I quit cold turkey after puffing 3 packs a day! Now overeating is a habit. But I really enjoy drinking these healthy shakes. I could drink them every day forever and not mind at all. So what works for me will not work for someone else because not everyone likes to drink their meals. But then not everyone likes to chew my brand of gum either. Amen

The hell with the programs, get your minbd straight and just back away from the table. But you MUST have your mind straight!
