It definitely was not easy

But I knew I had to do it

In spite of the chaotic pain

Burning me bit by it

I had signed up for this

I want to get till the end

I want my body to behave

To extremes I want it to bend

I stretched more than I ever had

Slowly I was able to move an extra inch

I hadn't taken care of my body well

Now's when I began to feel the pinch

Soon, the dumbell and I were one

I was able to smoothly glide up and down

There was a rising spirit in me

Even though my sores were black and brown

The toughest hour of my life

All about weights and me alone

I know this was the price I had to pay

To see my body shapely tone

I had to be strong in my mind

Wishful thinking sure did help

Even though at times I gave in

Let out a few tears and a yelp

Fitness is a top priority now

Enough of the ice creams I did lick

Sweets and fatty foods have bid goodbye

Now I'm happy being a workoutaholic
