Un........Happy New Year


'TWAS THE MONTH AFTER CHRISTMAS

'Twas the month after Christmas, and all through the house
Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse.
The biscuits I'd nibble, the champagne 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 partner's old shirt
And prepared once again to do battle with dirt
I said to myself, as I only can
"You can't spend all Summer 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
'Til all the additional ounces have vanished.
I won't have a biscuit - not even a lick.
I'll want only to chew on a long celery stick.
I won't have hot scones, or cake, or fruit 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 laugh, no longer a riot.
Happy New Year to all and to all a good diet!

January is what my birthday is all about.
Far better than xmas.
You know why I have hated xmas in the past.
Now, it is my time of the year!



Life isn't about how many breaths you take, but about the moments that take your breath away!

I'm the opposite. I hate Birthdays.
Will try and not leave it too late this year.

I'm just surprised that I have lasted as long as I have.
That's why I like my birthday so much.

No way! Don't throw the stuff out. If you're that worried about gaining weight, then do some exercise to burn it off. They say that sex is a good way to lose a few pounds, especially if you engage for a couple of hours per day. It's a balance thing, not how much you eat.

It all comes down to what you put into your mouth I suppose.

A couple of hours a day you say, one could be so lucky.

    Happy New Year M
    Already started my diet...it's an old family recipe that works so well...'see food, eat food'
    By croc, I have to check on my chicken
That is a very popular diet. Have been known to be on it a few times myself.

Got the email, had a laugh, so had to share it.

Like all my meat well done. If it's even a little pink, can't eat it.

You must have turned over a new leaf this New Year. Your first post that has been totally clean.
