Look at me...
tell me what you see?
Tell what how do you feel?
Please tell me...
Inquiring minds want to know...???
why it is so damn hard to push you away?
You are more than just a mere bag of chips
You are more than just a bucket of Ben and Jerrry's...
You are more than a bucket of popcorn drenched with artery clogging butter.....
You are a disease...
You are a comfort from myself...
Can't you see I am so damn tired of surcumbing...
so tired of tasting the tears of failure in my heart...
I am tired of turning to you and you stab me right in my gut.....
behind the fatty skin is adying heart...
why can't you see...
this killing me...
I am fat...
but I am also human....
underneath this flabby exterior is a soul that needs to be fed....
I want to be full...
but not with these masks...
I am tired of hiding my pain.....
so tired.....
so damn tired..

That's a good poem and I understand what you wrote. I like to read poetry and I write some myself every once in a while. I'm a new diabetic so I had to put the breaks on my food back on 9/19/07. Due to doctors orders I eat around 1500 calories and count carbs. I've lost alot of weight, but I'm a large woman to begin with. I feel so much better. Try to sit down and see what you are doing. Then take a baby step towards progress. I wish you well.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse.
