A new years diet poem !! to spur you on

New Year's Diet
You know I've tried a million times,
I said with much dismay..
the extra pounds just won't come off,
I hate to go and weigh..

But maybe if I tried right now,
since this is New Years Day..
I'll stop some habits that I've formed,
I'll put the sweets away..

I'll hide the chips and dip and stuff,
that make me go astray..
I'll buy rice cakes and celery sticks,
and eat them through the day..

My sandwich will be lettuce filled,
and turkey, not gourmet..
I'll have some tea with sweet and low,
I know this is the way..

If I can do it for a month,
I know I'll be okay..
I couldn't promise all my life,
but know I can... today! ​

That is so so true - just aim to stick to it today, tomorrow is a new day!
