‘Watch this space’ ?

‘Watch this space’ ?

Baked potatoes instead of greasy chips for me
They cook quickly in the microwave
Along with baked beans for my tea

I’ve had a broken foot lately
so this hasn’t helped at all
Whilst I’ve had to try & rest it
It’s almost drove me up the wall

NO CHOCOLATE BISCUITS
infact NO CHOCOLATE TREATS
I am cutting out sugary wine gum sweets

It’s about time I started getting back into shape
I’ve stuffed my face recently & I look like an ape

I’ve got lumps on my bumps
where they really should not be
I’m podgy with squishy & it’s not comfortable you see

So as from this week
I’ve started my healthy regime
If I can lose at least a stone
I’ll be like the ‘Cat that’s got it’s cream’

So I shall really try my best
& all my folks watch this space
Whilst I shed some excess fat
not ramming rubbish in my face
