I Must Start Eating Less

I must go on a diet, for I need to lose some weight,

Or becoming large and lardy will inevitably be my fate.

My waist is getting bigger and it really looks a mess,

Showing rounded bulges when I wear a pretty dress.

My legs are getting larger, and the rude say they are fat,

And my stomach very definitely is not what you’d call flat.

My arms are looking wobbly, and they really aren’t in shape,

And very soon they’ll reach the stage where people turn and gape.

So I really must starting eating less, until I’m nice and slim,

For life as large and bulky can so often be quite grim.
