Hello...Happy Monday...
I decided to put a poem in here that I wrote at the beginning of when I started Medifast...I haven't posted it until now, but feel brave enough to put it in here now, since I have lost my first 25 #...
It's called ...
What is it like to be Fat?
Lane Bryant, Avenue, Fashion Bug & More
I’ve been in them all, “The plus sizes stores”.
My back aches daily and my feet are in pain
What will it take so I’m not so drained?
Don’t stare - it’s not fair-- don’t you see how I feel?
The glares are too much and the smirks are unreal.
Elastic “everything” from the top to my toes
I want some real cotton – not spandex -you know?
My energy level is low, low, low, and dropping,
I need to start “slimmin” and get rid of this large bottom!
Fast foods and drive thru’s …I’m done with them all
I’d rather be shopping for size 6- at the mall!
What else can I say about being fat?
I feel I need help …It is here I will chat
To others who struggle and know the real deal
Of eating disorders and oversized meals.
I take this challenge to get rid of it all,
No matter what, I’m worth the overhaul!
In June is when I want to hit goal,
And I know it will be a rocky road.
Have a great day everyone !
