Weight Loss Style

I

I walk down the grocery store isle.

There is a big bag on the shelf.

I fall in - I'm sucked in.

I am lost...I am helpless.

It isn't my fault.

It takes me forever to find a way out.

II

I walk down the same grocery store isle.

There is a big bag on the shelf.

I pretend I don't see it.

I fall in again.

I can't believe I am in the same place

but, it isn't my fault.

It still takes a long time to get out.

III

I walk down the same grocery store isle.

There is a big bag on the shelf.

I see it is there.

I still fall in... it's a habit.

My eyes are open.

I know where I am.

It is my fault.

I get out immediately.

IV

I walk down the same grocery store isle.

There is a big bag on the shelf.

I walk around it.

V

I walk down another isle.
