When you lose a
Hundred and Twenty pounds
You start to notice small
Changes in your life
Like
Winks and smiles
That weren’t there before
From pretty gals who never
Knew you existed.
People start to notice who
The hell you are
When you walk in the
Door
And that you
Aren’t just some
Large mass
Occupying an empty space,
That you are an
Actual person.
Then you realize that
All the Quest Bars and
Low Calorie Smoothies,
And all the long Trails
That you hiked on
Mile after mile
Where worth
Every damn minute.
