This afternoon the judgment day arrived.
I stood on the weighing scale and sighed!
That limping broccoli chicken is no magic,
numbers on the silly machine was tragic.
Shoved a forbidden burger in bulging belly,
vowing to throw that sucker scale
down the high valley.
I can identify with this very well, sad to say! Well done.
Weight woesβ¦
I love food π₯, thanks for your comments, guess we are sailing in the same boat.
:>) sounds that way!

Broccoli chicken isn’t all it’s cracked up to be I guess.
Broccoli π₯¦ is one vegetable which has no tasteβ¦some days it tastes like detergent ππ
hahah; loved this, the photo, the caption, the poem; and so current for me: I had just witnessed a middle-aged man with a wide girth demolishing a milkshake brimming with cream plus a sliced castle of a cake topped with all sorts of goodies: I drooled and thought, God, I would love to do that π
π€ͺπ€ͺ, I am middle aged, I look at teenagers exchanging numbers in gym and doing multiple sets of squats. While I barely manage a squat and try to squeeze my bell ry every time I pass a hot guyβ¦ π€ͺπ€ͺπ€ͺ
hahaha; we are all conscious of our self image; a little pride is a good thing π and so is a little self delusion π
No one talks about fitness as much as I do π€ͺπ€ͺ but less squats !!
Lol; I stick to the weight machines and cardiovascular machines like the treadmill, exercise bike and yes, climbing stairs π
Cool π, I do treadmill , cycling and little strength training . My knee hurts while climbing stairs. I stick to a slot of 50 minutes and just dream of workout to end through outππ
yeh, I try to stretch it out to 50 but am happy to succumb if I make a good 45 π

Iβve given up dieting. Now I eat healthy and stay away from the scales
True that, dieting never really works! I guess you are doing the right thing by eating healthy π. I should try to do that as well. Thanks for stopping by Sadje, much appreciate it!
Youβre welcome my friend. After spending a lifetime trying to lose weight, Iβve had enough. ππ
I can imagine dear! I try to exercise, whenever I can to keep myself active. Diets never work and are so impractical in long run.
Very true. I think Iβve lost more than twice my weight, only to gain it back.
True that, same with me! I donβt fret about diet anymore

Certainly the scales are at fault .. !!
Ivor true that! After a whole weekend of burger and booze, Iβm gonna put the blame on scales π€ͺπ€ͺ
ππ
π₯¦π₯π€ͺπ€ͺπ€ͺ, weight woes!
I waited so that my weight reduced ,
Dieted, exercised but it refused
To come down or stay steady at least,
I forgot everything and started having daily feast!
Wonderful poetry coming straight from heart β€οΈ β€οΈ. I feel thatβs what leads to binge eating at least in my case when I donβt see any improvement, I go for a feast π
Thanks
Your poetry is cool π
I love rhyming verses; though your poetry is an exception which I have liked immensely.
Thank you βΊοΈ!
You made my day with such encouraging words, Iβm really humbled that you enjoy my words πβ€οΈ
But doesnβt match your poetry
ππβ€οΈ, thanks :).
Weight woes π
ππππ just wow
Thanks you ππ€ͺπ€ͺ weight woes!
Broccoli chicken didnβt help π
Chill. SLowly Climb stairs daily 25 mins. And drink turmeric tea or water. Wt will go away
Iβm chilled mostly, itβs a poem hence exaggerated, just enjoy, itβs a satire. I donβt take my weight that seriously π, but I exercise and try to eat healthy. Iβll turmeric water π§ π
Cool
Iβm in my mid thirties and not that overweight, guess have enough time to eat and shedβΊοΈ
I think today most people habe enough wealth to survive. Only thing to be taken care of is mind and body. Most profitable invesment is investing on health. So that as long as you live , you are independent in doing daily chores and mentally fit to take on any situation
Absolutely π
Health is wrongly associated with apperance, even a 120 kg person can be healthy and fit and 70 kg person can be unfit . Weight is never the cause of concern, though it ctches most attention.
I guess each to their ownβ¦ whatever makes a person happy and confident, whether itβs losing weight or eating more! But Iβm all in favour of exercise and keeping weight in check and going for yearly health check-ups!
Yup. Last line is key. Most avoid getting tests done. They fear if tests throw up something adverse
π
Weight is just a number. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder π
True that, poem is just for satire and humor .
Enjoy!
Itβs awesome!
Iβm glad you enjoyed it π
