Cheers to You

Being overweight in the world today
Can really get you down.
Eating to mask all your worries,
It’ll really make you frown.



Wouldn’t you like change your ways?



Sometimes you want to go…
Where everybody knows your weight,

And they all still think you’re great.

You wanna hang with your fitness gang,

And maybe go for a jog.

You wanna be where everybody knows

Your blog.

You wanna go where people know,

That people are all the same.

Leave a comment today
So everyone’ll know your name.

Seriously,  I’m behind on my blog reading (and following), so please leave a comment about yourself and your blog and I’ll do my best to get over there and “cheer” you on.

The Bite Not Taken

You Can Call Me Jack

A man steps on the scale, 

He says, “Why am I soft in the middle now?
Why am I soft in the middle?
Losing weight is so incredibly hard! 

I need a body-intervention,
I want a rejuvenation! 

Don’t want to end up a lard-ass, 

Express lane to the graveyard.” 



Grown bigger, grown bigger
.
Chips in the moonlight. 

Far away, my weight-loss goal.

Mr. Beerbelly, Beerbelly, 

Get these snacks away from me! 

You know, I’m sick being outta control.

I

f I can get my body fit,
I can get my mojo back! 

You can quit callin’ me Fatty,
And Fatty, when you call me,

You can call me Jack! 



A man jogs down the street, 

He says, "Why am I short of breath now? 

Got a short little five kilometer,
But whoa, my run feels so long! 

Where’s my wife and family?
Oh, they’re way up ahead.
Who’ll give me a ride home
Now that my will to run is… 

Gone ...... gone?
Why must I dilly-dally, 

On this roly-poly, little slow-paced jog. 

All along .... along .... 

There were incidents and accidents,
(Should've hit the restroom first, I suppose) ..... 



But If I get my body fit, 

And I get my mojo back 

Please don’t call me Fatty, 

And Fatty, when you call me, 

You can call me Jack!
Call me Jack ...... 

 
 

You can call me Jack ......

Healthiness Is...

...eating French fries that haven't been French-fried.

...lifting a child without back going a ka-poing

...a worn-out pair of running shoes

...having a "cheat day" and not cheating

...parking in the anti-handicapped space (parking spot located furthest from where you're going)

...eating a salad without thinking you're being punished for something

...not gaining 10 pounds when you go on vacation

...using one of those check-your-blood-pressure machines at the store and not having it start smoking and emitting a wailing siren

...feeling like your get-up-and-go hasn't got-up-and-went


...being able to push your body and not have your body push back

...living your life, loving your life

The Cat in the Fat Comes Back

“I know some good games 

We could play,”
Said the Jack.
“I know some new tricks,” 

Said the Jack in the Fat. 

“A lot of good tricks.

I will show them to you. 

Your weight might go down
If you do as I do.”

But the Flesh said, 
“No! No!
Make that Jack go away!

Tell that Jack in the Fat 

You don’t care what you weigh! 

He should not be here. 

He is not very wise. 

He should not weigh in
On the size of your size!”

“Now! Now! Have no fear. 

Have no fear!” said the Jack. 

“My tricks are not bad,” 

Said the Jack in the Fat. 

“Why, we can have lots of good fun,”
The Jack states, 

“With a game that I call UP UP UP
With some weights!”

“Put those down!” said the Flesh. 

“This is no fun any more! 

Put them down!” said the Flesh.

“I DON’T wanna be sore.”

“Have no fear!” said the Jack. 

“You will be less sore soon. 

You’ll be like a butterfly out the cocoon. 

With muscles on muscles,
You’ll be over the moon.”

“Look at you! Look at you now!” said the Jack. 

“With lean muscle all over your arms, legs and back! 

You can hold up TEN pounds. 

You can hold up ten more!

You can do lots of reps,
And you seldom get sore!

And look! 

You can climb up four flights of stairs,
Which helps when the elevator’s down for repairs. 

But that is not all! 

Oh, no. That is not all…

“Look at you! 

Look at you!

Look at you NOW! 

Sporting a body that makes folks say “Wow!” 

You can lift up more weights,
And run miles at a time.

Chin-ups you do now and hills you can climb. 

You can pick up a child 

And not throw out your back. 

You can exercise freely 

Like your buddy Jack. 

You can hike really far,
You don’t laze on the sofa 

With a pizza and beer 

As you slip in a coma!

You are strong as can be,
This is your life, you know.
It is time to get fit now.
Let’s get up and go!

It's Enough to Make You Scream...

Kill the Girth

From “The Not-So-Little Mermaid”…



Here I see you,

Sitting there at the buffet.

You don’t got a lot to say,

You’ve just finished eating.

Yeah, you don’t know why 

But now it’s dieting you’ll try 

You wanna kill the girth.



Yes, you want it.

Look at you, you know you do.
It’s possible you can do it, too.

There is one way to find out.

It’ll take lots of work.

Yes, so much work.

Go on and kill the girth. 



Work with me now. 

Sh*t-la-la-la-la-la 

My, oh, my.

Likes his food too fried, 

He ain’t gonna kill the girth.

Sh*t-la-la-la-la-la 

Ain’t that sad?

Ain’t it shame, too bad?

You gonna feel the girth.



Now’s your moment 

Feeling like a big balloon.
Boy, you better do it soon
No time will be better.
So let’s get to work
And keep up that work
Until you kill the girth.

Sh*t-la-la-la-la-la 

Don’t give in.

You got some strength within.
Go on and kill the girth.
Sh*t-la-la-la-la-la 
Don’t stop now.
Excersise and less chow

Is how you kill the girth.


Sh*t-la-la-la-la-la 

Be so strong.
Listen to my song, 

The song say kill the girth.

Sh*t-la-la-la-la-la 

Music play 

While you work out each day. 

You wanna kill the girth.



You’ve got to kill the girth. 

Why don’t you kill the girth? 

You gotta kill the girth.

Go on and kill the girth.
