Only One Pound

I swear I had posted this before but alas I can't find it now... I hate it when my searching skills fail me...

A sort of poem for us... No I didn't write it... it's been around the internet for years and it's worth a read and committing to memory...

One Pound of Fat

[SIZE=+1]Hello! Do you know me? If you don't, you should. I am ONE POUND OF FAT, and I am the happiest pound of FAT that you would ever want to meet! Want to know why? It's because no one ever wants to lose me! After all, I am only ONE POUND OF FAT. Just ONE POUND. Everyone wants to lose 3 or 5 or 15 pounds, but never ONLY one. So, I just stick around and happily keep you. Then I am free to add to myself, ever so slyly, so that you never seem to notice... That is, until I have grown to 10, 20 or even 30 pounds in weight... YES... it is fun being ONLY ONE POUND OF FAT... left to do just as I please.
So, when you weigh in, go ahead... just keep on saying, "Oh I only lost one pound." (As if that is so terrible.) For you see, if you do this, you will encourage others to hang around me because they will think that I am not worth losing. And I LOVE being around you... your arms, your legs, your chin, your hips, and every other part of you. HAPPY DAYS! After all, I am ONLY ONE POUND OF FAT!!!

Love, love, that. I'm gonna try to commit it to memory!
 
I want to lose that one pound of fat and he can take a few of his one pound buddies with him. Start packing your bags fat!
 
I've lost that one pound of fat many times. It seems that I'm only able to drop one pound per week. I've got two pounds to lose to meet my intermediate goal. I may try to lose another 10 come spring...but for now, one pound at a time is okay...and there are only two of them left.:hurray:
 
Cute find. :O)
