I posted this a few weeks ago, but if anyone missed it, here's something to make you smile (hopefully!). To the the tune of "Hark the Herald Angels Sing"....
¸ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸¸ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸¸ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸¸ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸
Hark! the mumsnet mamas sing,
?What we want is to be thin!;
Fight the flab, and lose that fat,
Salads now, not chocolate!
Why don't you join in our diet?
You won't know until you try it,
How those pounds will disappear,
You'll have smaller tum and rear?.
Refrain
Hark! the mumsnet mamas sing,
?What we want is to be thin!?
If you're wanting to be thinner
Take care choosing what's for dinner.
Always count those calories,
Cut back on the wine and cheese.
Fruit and veg is fine aplenty
Eat them till your plate is empty,
Then you won't need naughty treats
Like sticky cakes, nuts and sweets.
Refrain
Till pounds have gone for ever more
On carrot sticks we will gnaw.
Melon, rhubarb, pears we'll choose
Sadly we'll stay off the booze.
Still we know it's not for ever
We can do this, stick together
At the weekly mamas weigh-in
"We've lost again", we'll all be saying.
Refrain
Once our bad habits we have banished
"Big Mama" soon will have vanished.
Ounce by ounce, and pound by pound,
A lighter mum, will soon be found.
Soon we'll reach our target weight
And we know, that will feel great.
On our new shape, and where the weight went
Friends and colleagues, all will comment.
Refrain
Hail the mamas looking slimmer
Fit and toned and so much trimmer.
All those days of self denial
Reflected on the scales dial.
Joyful all ye mamas rise
Now we are a smaller size.
For ever more we'll be more healthy,
But new clothes mean much less wealthy!
Refrain
