๐ THE GHOST OF CHRISTMAS OFF-PLAN ๐
by your ever-proud Consultant (and fellow member!)๐
๐'Twas the run-up to Christmas, and all through the town,
Some Slimming World members were feeling quite down.
The mince pies had whispered, the Baileys had sung,
And the willpower wagon? Wellโฆ off it had flung.
๐Some said, โIโll restart in Jan, itโs too late for me,โ
As they nibbled on stuffing and sipped festive tea.
But deep down inside, a small voice gave a shout:
โI miss my group โ and my sparkleโs run out!โ๐ญ
๐They scrolled past the posts, they ignored the old chat,
Feeling bloated and blue in their festive red hat.
But here comes a truth wrapped in tinsel and cheer:
Gail would be proud of you โ now, next, and last year! โบ๏ธ
๐She gets it, sheโs human (and partial to prosecco and social events๐คช),
Sheโs danced with temptation, made every mistake.
But she knows that your journeyโs not ruined or gone,
Itโs just paused for a moment โ the sparkle lives on!๐
๐So if youโve gone quiet, or skipped a few weeks,
If your jeans feel rebellious and your confidence leaksโฆ
Know this: youโre welcome, no judgement, no shame,
Just hugs, happy tears, and your Consultant proclaim:
๐โCome back this week! Don't leave it too late,
Iโll be here with your mojo and a festive cheerโ
Because Christmas is lovely, but YOU shine much more,
And your group is the sleigh that will help you restore.
๐So unwrap your courage, and donโt overthink,
Your sparkleโs still there โ it just needed a wink ๐.
And Gail? Sheโs cheering, with glitter and glee,
Saying, โYouโre amazing โ because you came back to me!โ ๐
