GO FOR IT!! :-)

A short while back

I stood on my scale

And oh my word

Did I start to wail!

The number displayed? 

It was QUITE astronomical

(And my response?

Well, it was not comical!)

I wondered aloud,

“What am I gonna’ do?

When I look to the ground

I cannot see my shoe!”

The joints in my knees

They weren’t feeling too great.

So I made a decision then and there

To lose weight!

I decided to check into

Weight Loss Surg'ry

Roux en Y (gastric bypass)

Was the choice for me!

A year has now passed

Since I made my decision

And the life I live now

Is the one I’ve envisioned!

I can wear nicer clothes

I can go on a walk

Or a bike ride with family

And actually still TALK!

Now I am not trying

To be boastin’ or braggin’

I just got sooo tired

Of seeing my skin saggin’!

Maybe you are where I was

And you want something new

To feel pride once again

In the one you call YOU!

Well, the future is yours

And I wish you success

Claim the life of your dreams!

You deserve nothing less!
