This post is based on the most famous of Psalms. Chapter 23.
It is for all of you who have struggled with weight and keeping it off. Here is a light hearted look.
My diet is my shepherd, I shall be in want,
It makes me jog quielty round and round green pastures,
It lead me to quietly drink water,
And jump on and off the scales,
It guides me to reist all pleasurable food
For my figure's shape.
Even though I walk through the aisels of Sainbury's
I will buy no Bovril
For you are with me:
Your measuring tape and your calorie counter
They confuse me.
You prepare a table before me
In the presence of the TellyTubbies.
You cover my lettuce with low-fat mayonnaise,
My diet coke overflows.
Surely a rumbling stomach and a feeling of irritability will be with me
All the days of my slimming plan
And I will worry about my weight forever.
