Twas the Day after Christmas, and all through the house Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse. The cookies Id nibbled, the eggnog Id taste at the holiday parties had gone to my waist. When I got on the scales there arose such a number! When I walked to the store (less a walk than a lumber). Id remember the marvelous meals Id prepared; The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rared, The wine and the rum balls, the bread and the cheese And the way Id never said, No thank you, please. As I dressed myself in my husbands old shirt And prepared once again to do battle with dirt--- I said to myself, as only I can You cant spend a winter disguised as a man! So--away with the last of the sour cream dip, Get rid of the fruit cake, every cracker and chips Every last bit of bad food must be banished Till all of these additional pounds have vanished. I wont have a cookie--not even a lick. Ill want to chew only on a long celery stick. I wont have hot biscuits, or corn bread, or pie, Ill munch on a carrot and quietly cry. Im hungry, Im lonesome, and life is a bore--- But isnt that what January is for? But what to my wondering eyes should appear, but before/after pictures that make us all cheer!
