Sometimes I’m fat sometimes thin
Occasionally I have a double chin
There’s no big secret to losing weight
You can’t adjust your adult height
To spread the load of excess timber
Or wish yourself a little slimmer
It’s all about food and exercise
Nothing intelligent nothing wise
Just resist the urge for another biscuit
A little walk, jog or swim is almost implicit
Avoid the need to binge on telly soaps
Or reality shows with blokes being blokes
Live your life not watch others live theirs
Avoid the lift always take the stairs
See the sofa as your ultimate enemy
Regular activity will help you mentally
At the end of the day life is about choices
Being sedentary will inevitable destroy us
So get off your backside lose that double chin
Before you know it you will be thin!

Good advice and very true. We all have it within us to keep reasonably fit and healthy without having to resort to costly diets or gyms.
Eat less of what you enjoy,
walk quickly to the pub!
Yes, I must get out more, as they say! heehee. But I need to join a club to put weight ON! doh!
