Crikey the shock as I got on the scales
I seem to have absorbed everything Christmas entails
The food has engulfed my body as a whole
I now have a new resolution surely an achievable goal

I thought they would blow up to be absolutely fair
I got on so slowly, carefully, taking so much care
We all know if you jump on too fast
the numbers go higher our faces aghast 

I've tried standing on one leg and even having a poo
but the numbers they rise, my weight stuck on like glue
So I have got to eat less and exercise more
just at this moment though that seems a bit of a chore

I have to say goodbye to all the sugary treats
lattes and cakes with my friends on our meets
My coffee now is black and sugar free
I'm drinking so much water I'm always needing a wee

Ah it will be worth it when I'm a stone or two down
and not looking like a big bloated clown
My pants will be tight no more my friend
and the numbers on those scales will finally descend

Lemon Drizzle Cake, gorgeous eh? I have not got that function built into my brain that says 'no Sue from the Brew, you cannot eat that because you are on a diet'. I get a bit excited when I see gluten free as well as it can be rare sometimes and of course you all need to know about this cake. It's research at the end of the day really, isn't it? Please say yes. 

My verse for today is about this naughty adventure I went on with the cake! Enjoy.....

What ever did happen to my diet?

The cake it did fall in my gob
it was something I just could not stop
The lemon was drizzlin'
my mouth was a sizzlin'
What ever did happen to my diet?

A latte to accompany my cake
a rest, a sit-down, take a break
All frothy and milky
and positively silky
Whatever did happen to my diet?

I looked at the cake and it said
'I can see ya gal who likes to be fed'
I dug in my fork
cut cakes don't really talk
Whatever did happen to my diet?

It really tasted so good
I am so fond of a pud
I lose my concentration 
give in to the temptation
Whatever did happen to my diet?

Calories galore but there I sat
cake is great when you're having a chat
There's always an excuse
for all this abuse
What ever did happen to my diet?

So back on the plan I must go
eliminate cakes and gateaux 
Oh it just stinks
Mr Kipling will be gutted me thinks
Whatever will happen with my diet?

I'm off to have a serious word with myself and maybe sit on the naughty step or go out for more cake, ha ha oops!

Thanks for reading. I will be back tomorrow for Free from Friday so join me then.

​Take care for now........
