Sermon from the Mountain (of food)

 A word of warning, my fatty friends!

Take that first bite and trouble begins.

The second and third are sure to follow,

Adding weight with every swallow.

When you come to bite number four –

‘Tis not enough – you’ll want more.

You’ll take the fifth – sixth – seventh - yes, eight.

Oh, look at that food piled on your plate!

By now, results are beginning to show.

Without a doubt, your waistline will grow.

And that, my friend, will tighten your skirt,

Make it hopeless for you to flirt.

For who will be flattered by coy glances

Of a roly-poly who waddles as she dances?

Please remember, when it’s time to eat again,

These last words – “DON’T DIG IN!”

For sixteen bites CAN make a pound!

And keeps your “tummy” much too round.

Keep on trying – Success will make you feel great,

When YOU have learned to master YOUR weight!
