Dieting Woes

A plain stalk of celery,

a handful of nuts.

Sticking to this diet,

is making me nuts.

Stay away from white stuff,

like potatoes and rice.

Bread is a no no,

and French fries a vice.

Drink water by the gallon,

say goodbye to your coke.

I’d kill for a burger,

I may have a stroke.

Forget about that dessert,

it’s the devil’s delight.

But chocolate chip ice cream??

this just isn’t right.

I’m sorry to confess,

That my waist line won’t budge.

I’m going for a sundae,

With a cherry and hot fudge.
