Tuesday, Oct 16 2007 - one m&m
View WILLLOSEIT's food & exercise for this day
why me? i often
hear myself say
why does my size
have to be this way
why can't i be
like the skinny ones
wearing a size 2 with
a waist like my thumb?
able to wear
those 4 inch heels
and go through the day
while skipping 2 meals?
oh and lets not forget
when they're feeling blue
to the chocoalte they say
hmm one m&m or two?
oh please forgive my
silly jealous rage
it's a moment of madness
a temporary phase
when i just can't take
their blind eye's view
a perfect little world
no me and no you
a polka-dot bikini
a skirt skin tight
a 32 a chest
it's just not right
into my tankini
once again i will squeeze
it doesn't look so bad
rather fetching, oh please
it's 10 pounds of sausage
in a 5 pound bag
it's a belly that wobbles
and boobs that sag
at least for today
that's the truth i share
it's a work in progress
and i really do care
how i look
and what people see
so i do my best
and dress carefree
because i know someday
i'll wear a smaller size
i believe in the effort
with my eye on the prize
no not a size 2
that's not in my genes
petite is for peas
and pubescent teens
no i will be happy
to shop off the racks
in normal stores
like bloomies or sacs
and watch all the skinny girls
who'll still think I am fat
but i'll know the truth
and i will never go back
so thin, i think never
it's not in the cards
but thinner, for sure
and so i work very hard
i'll eat my fruit
and veggies galore
i like them i do
and often want more
but one m&m
that seems so extreme
i am nourished and focused
even with a little ice cream
and many other treats
from time to time
though never a size 2
and that is just fine!

Oh, I know it!
;) That's actually what I thought you were trying to say-or, anyway, what I got out of it.

You made me think of a woman I worked with that was a size 0. She NEVER ate....had coffee all day and would take it outside and smoke. She looked like a cadaver, especially when she smiled.
:teeth2: The funny part is when I ran into her one Saturday in the supermarket and her carriage was literally piled high with groceries (she's a single woman) and I was so shocked I asked her what she was doing with all that food.
:laugh5: Yeah, I'm not the most tactful person sometimes.

The commercials: "I was a size 1O and now I am a OO".....the only place I have anything that looks like OO is my (_i_). I am with you Grace...all I want is to be able to shop in the regular clothing Dept.

It's great! (For some reason, I thought of you when I saw that beautiful red m&m that's sitting in the middle.)
