Tenacity

It’s easy to resolve to lose weight,
to choose a weigh and pay program
or to come, for the first time or to return,
to Overeaters Anonymous. It’s all easy…
to begin, But to keep on keeping on,
to keep coming back, to read literature,
to write down your thoughts, make phone calls,
to develop a plan of eating and an action plan,
to get to meetings and chip in to make them work,
writing, and maintaining anonymity,
while it’s easy, it’s not simple, but requires tenacity.
Find a place that feels right…where you’re welcome home,
and put down roots with tenacity.
