up again
another two pounds
look at these mounds
of fat
tryin' to lose
NOT GAIN
aggravation
deprivation
STARVATION
mirror shows
i hate what i see
who's that not me
nasty
diet again
ugly
irritation
accusation
AGITATION
i've been good

perspiration
adaptation
DEDICATION

it WON'T GO AWAY
it's here to stay
for good
FOREVER fat
WHY ME
condemnation
castigation
DESOLATION

(((HUGS)))
because i've been there...
believe me...i understand.
Karla, I can relate. My doctor told me to quit eating. I'm big but I'm solid. Almost look like the Rock. Except my stomachs a little bigger than his. I like being big, it's just the cholestrol and high blood pressure that I have to watch. Here's a big around you hug, don't worry you'll be all right, Good expressive piece, GEM
Karla,,Oh how many can relate to this! But it's really hard to lose weight when you can't do anything. You try to exercize and wind up in the ER,,but then they tell you if you don't you'll never lose it. What are we suppose to do? Oh well I'll just write and be happy and content,,Lisa
