My diet is going very well
and fasting doesn’t seem like hell.
500 cals on two fast days
have changed my normal eating ways.

Not pigging out on chocs and cake
and just a bit less on my plate
Counting calories was such a chore
don’t have to do that anymore.

My weight has dropped, I’m pleased to say
Losing 7 lbs has made my day.
But another stone has got to go
before it really starts to show.

By Christmas, hopefully, I’ll be slimmer
Looking forward to that special dinner
Not overdoing the puds and cake
A New Year resolution I will make.

To try and keep the slimmer me
and fit and healthy, hope to be!
Eat well in reason, when I please
but keep the weight of these new knees!

Thanks to all for reading and for your lovely comments; had been thinking about composing one since I started the fast diet, so hope it will keep me on the right track!
