Weight Loss

Why weight loss compliments aren’t always a compliment

Wow, look at how much weight you’ve lost!
Thanks so much! You don’t know what it’s cost.
Not calorie counting food in every shop 
Just counting hours on the clock
No 5am gym get ups 
Nope, not me
I can’t get to sleep until half past 3
Well, come on, share your secret! 
Started running? 
Eat more greens? 
Nah, ready meals 
I like the macaroni cheese
A couple cigarettes can replace my meals 
I don’t feel like eating when I’m partying in heels 
I’m not hungry when I’m drunk, so pass another shot 
I’ll grab something in a bit from the kebab shop 
Too much on my mind to slave over bolognaise
I’ll just have a quick cheese sandwich 
With a bit of mayonnaise 
So it ain’t really a diet 
It’s more of a feeling 
I just don’t feel like eating 
When I’m staring at the ceiling
