Foreboding thoughts as I near the scale
Energetic efforts of yesterday brings hope
Angst fills me, the line creeps higher
Rue the day I hit fifty, its been a standstill since then, Argh!

This was written for the Trifecta weekend challenge, which was to write exactly 33 words on FEAR and I made an acronym into a poem. I have struggled with many fears my whole life. I have yet to overcome the fear of the scale.

I’m glad you joined in the fun, Patty! I also dislike the scale and don’t subject myself to it often. (If I can’t button my jeans, then I know I’ve overindulged :)) The number doesn’t seem to reflect my effort- in both exercising and eating healthy!
Thanks Janna. The spirit of the challenge moved me to write a poem this weekend. Glad you stopped by 🙂
Truer words never said. My deal with myself is no sugar and exercise.
Thanks for dropping by Ann, glad you liked the poem.
