Only 1 pound

Spring is just around the corner, so now is the time to think about that 1 pound



ONLY 1 POUND

Hello, do you know me? If you don’t, you should.
I’m one pound of fat, and I’m the HAPPIEST pound of fat that you would ever meet. Want to know why? It’s because no one ever wants to lose me; I’m ONLY ONE POUND, just a pound! Everyone wants to lose three pounds, five pounds, or fifteen pounds, but never only one. So I just stick around happily keeping you fat. Then I add to myself ever so slyly, so that you never notice it. That is, until I’ve grown to ten, twenty, thirty, or even more pounds in weight. Yes, its fun being ONLY ONE POUND, left to do as I please. So, when you weigh-in keep right on saying, “Oh, I only lost one pound!’ (As if that is such a terrible thing.) For you see, if you do this, you’ll encourage others to keep me around because they’ll think I’m not worth losing. And, I love being around you-your arms, your legs, your chin, your hips, and every part of you. Happy Days!!! After all, I’m Only One Pound!!
