Weight Loss Tricks
Bombarded by all of the ads
All of the latest tricks and fads
New shortcuts that have not been tried before
Let me be bearer of bad news:
If you buy in, you’ll only lose
When you engage in that fat-burning war
The trainers and nutritionists
And pro-fighters who tape up their fists
And have a six-pack can’t save you at all
Even I, who’ve conquered my
Long battle with large gut and thigh
Don’t have the inspiration or the gall
To claim that I can enlighten
All that my “tricks” do is frighten
“Suffer” is all the advice I will give
Sweat and hurt and be stretched past
The point you thought you couldn’t last
Keep going when you’d much rather not live
Keep going when your sides both stab
Deep underneath all of that flab
Keep going when your body says, “I quit!”
And only then will knowledge dawn
On you that you possess the brawn
To overrule the mind and not submit
To not depend on any tricks
Or rely on someone to fix
The flabby mess that you made all yourself
The most effective way to lose
The weight is to light your own fuse
Under your own ass and take back your health
To have accountability
To look in the mirror and see
The culprit who did this misdeed to you
Yourself; the one who chose great taste
Which left your own body disgraced
And left you feeling bloated, slow and blue
The naysayers will jump in, hurt
And angrily remind and blurt:
“No, Miro! You must love yourself they say!”
To that I strongly disagree
I love NO ONE who does hurt me
And that includes myself if I betray
My own body with choices that
Will leave me feeling weak and fat
The one who makes that choice can go to hell
I’ve killed that enemy within
Who caused my bad knees and stretched skin
And now I am lithe, toned and muscles swell
I’ve earned the right to have self love
Because I fought to get rid of
The “tricks and shortcuts” to transform my body
I stopped searching for someone to
Save me from all that was so true:
It was my fault that I had become shoddy
You should be proud of your Journey Miro, 🙂
