With your strong urge and determination to do so, well, of course, you’ll feel good.

I really like this poem, very creative, and I can relate some to this, it is hard! Well you know I am here to be of support! (:

I have been so proud of the fact that I lost 10 pounds but 4 found their way back since Christmas and yesterday was our anniversary and we had a four course dinner out. It is hard to stop once you have gotten your sweet tooth into sweets again.

Love it. I am still trying to resist temptation from 2 years ago! lol

I must try harder.

At least you’re not alone in your struggle. Looks like we all have our share of it.

lovely post, mam!

I just know you will get there Christine.. keep it up.. and wow what a great poem

Very nice poem. Being good is so hard but I guess we have to try.

well, it takes a lot of will power to resist your fav. food, but you will get there.

Perhaps if you extracted the sweet tooth…….

Yes difficult to resist all the sweets and goodies! Great write.

I’ve never been a big sweet eater, bread is my downfall.

Well, Christine, you really got that right. This has everything of a good poem; good structure, good idea development, and excellent rhyming. Only the last line seemed to me to be a bit out of cadence. Back to topic, from that picture of you in the bikini, you seem to be doing pretty well, and the years seem to be melting away as well. Congratulations, but isn’t it freezing cold now where you live? You’ll get your death of cold.

Great Poem Christine, oh how temptation comes in so many deliscious forms,I am fighting tha battle of the bellybulge,lol I really enjoyed reading this,Thank you, Yours FJ McCarthy

That’s true. No pain, no gain. Which explains you should sacrifice a bloated stomach for eating much and gaining extra weight. Next thing to do is exercise to downsize. A hard thing to do when you can’t sweat it out at freezing temperature.Another well crafted lines, Christine. BTW about the bikini, that was how it started as the records say.

wow.. nice..

Great work Christine, im a devil for sweet foods and should take a \’leaf\’ from your book, loved the pic of the doughnuts too
Happy writing,
best wishes,

It’s so much easier to be bad. Good luck.

Lol, think I’ll have to join you Christine. Maybe we\’ll both look good in our bikinis. You’re walking with me, maybe I\’ll have to starve with you.

Happy New Year! Great one! Look at it this way. Tomorrow is the second week of January and I think that most people will be back to normal. Last week, it still felt like the holidays. A good idea would be to post a picture on the wall of a magazine celebrity or something visual pertaining to fitness. it will give you that motivation. good luck.

Christine, I\’m having the same problem, all the food during the holidays has ruined me. My doctor told me in Nov. to lose 5 pounds by March. That sounds easy enough but I\’m afraid I gained 5 during the holidays. I\’m trying to get really strict with myself.

sew up the lips ,lol
i stuggle too

STRUGGLE….missed the R, oooopppppps

Such a nice poem with strong determination.

Great!! I have a sweet tooth also, especially when it comes to chocolate.

I love your suggestions for getting back on track, particularly sew up the lips. I think that might be going a bit too far, lol. Thanks for the comments.

Christine

Expert once said that the best time to eat is when you feel like eating, and don\’t eat when you don\’t, is there any logic? ha ha …
I would say, eat moderately for anything (i talk as if I\’m an expert, but frankly, i am lousy, just heard from other experts)… ha ha..
very fun poem again, enjoy very much.

Creative, and I say that was awesome! ^_^

That’s pretty creative piece. nice poem as always!

I’ve definitely inherited that from you. Good poem.

It’s not just you. Me too.

wow…oh,honestly I cant resist the temptations regarding this…hehehe…thats why im kinda fat, just look at my pic…(^^,)
anyway nice post christine as always…:)

Sweets are the greatest temptation in the world. Wonderful poem

This poem is really good, Christine. It is really hard to get back on the wagon of eating right when you are faced with temptations.

Love you just the way you are! Sugarplum!
Thanks,
Clay

This is so very good Christine.
Since quitting a job it has been very hard to get back in shape, but happy new year and wonderful one for writing more!

HI Christine, some one suggested pulling th tooth out I would suggest while its out put it in with some sweets till its had its full then put it back again then you should have no problem lol

Excellent. You are undoubtedly best.

Haha I have suffered with this for many a year, one minute its goodies galore and the tastebuds just ‘donut’ switch off over night!

I know the feeling far too well Christine, I’m with Clay though, you are wonderful as you are. An inspired and witty poem as always.

Very sweet and beautiful rhythmic mam ! Thank you for you beautiful share.

Hahaha… Christine make sure you dance around as you clear things out, belly dancing is supposed to be great for shifting those pounds or put honey in you tea/coffee, it may knock you sweet tooth out xx

Nice one…

Eat up I say then walk this way. You will discover that one ounce of sugar is never worth the pound of pain. Enjoyed the read. And thank you for your gracious comment.

I really love you Christine ! ha ha Awsome and hilarious poem ,Thanks ha ha!

very nice poem..

nice

You’re an awesome soul, Christiine!

You are funny, Mum. I am trying to be good too but it isn’t easy.

nice

Great poem Christine. It’s very witty, thanks for sharing!

Keep up with you duet and exercise. You look fantastic! LOL
