The Week After Christmas
'Twas the week after Christmas, and all through the house-
Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse. The cookies I'd nibbled, the eggnog I'd taste- At the holiday parties had gone to my waist. When I got on the scales there arose such a number! When I walked to the store (less a walk than a lumber). I'd remember the marvelous meals I'd prepared; The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rared, The wine and the rum balls, the bread and the cheese And the way I'd never said, "No thank you, please." As I dressed myself in my husband's old shirt And prepared once again to do battle with dirt I said to myself, as I only can "You can't spend a winter disguised as a man!" So away with the last of the sour cream dip, Get rid of the fruit cake, every cracker and chip Every last bit of food that I like must be banished" Till all the additional ounces have vanished. I won't have a cookie - not even a lick. I'll want only to chew on a long celery stick. I won't have hot biscuits, or corn bread, or pie, I'll munch on a carrot and quietly cry. I'm hungry, I'm lonesome, and life is a bore But isn't that what January is for? Unable to giggle, no longer a riot. Happy New Year to all and to all a good diet!

The lady in charge of the Weight Watcher meeting read this last night. Everyone got a real kick out of it.

My Aunt has already lost 3 pounds on WW! I've been home with Gracie Leigh so I'll have to start next week.
It's fun, isn't it?
