Facing Myself

An actualization that hit me like a train
Just about time to end this internal pain
After months and months of not caring about fate
I realized I actually really needed to lose weight

I used to be thin I used to be fit
And If I don't shake then this will be it
The Doc says I've only a matter or time
If I don't shake it the risks will climb

I finally began to feel a little fear
So decided it's time to get off my rear
I picked up a disc and started Insanity
Then I sprained my leg, a test of my sanity

When I finally recovered once again I began
The weight is where my gym time would span
Already i'm seeing the effects of the work
5 pounds, already they're gone, it's berserk!
