My Dilemma!
"An apple a day keeps the doctor awayDrink 8 glasses a day, NO WAY !

Daily Exercise is the key, remember to eat your fruits and veggies. I hate these rules, I won't follow them,YEAH!
In fact I'll do the opposite,I'll play in mudI won't take baths,I'll eat ice-cream without washing my hands, I'll never excerise,I'll stay up all night and at the end of itI'll be fine,THAT's RIGHT !
Whoah why is my nose cloggedDid I get some kind of disease?My chest burns and my ears somehowhurt. I'm covered in buttons andI think I have cavities.Those healthy sayings aren't for showThey help us from getting colds or worse!Treat your body right don't be like me….in the hospital sneezing, can hardly breathe

My Health Journey            
I always ate fried meat. Only got two hours of sleep. My tummy was so big, I couldn't see my feet.
I was unhealthy. My skin was broken out. I was unfit. That's when I decided to get a grip.
I exercise everyday, with some fun play. Water, veggies and fruits all the way. I now have strong bones and teeth Because of what I eat.

  Healthy Me  
I love to eat sweets and macaroni pie,Savoury meats that add to my thighs;

So I set off to the gym to get slim,To burn off all the fat that hugged my limbs;
Running on the bicycle, lifting weights,Peddling on the treadmill before it’s too late;

Eating healthy foods, throwing out bad snacks,Less calories on my plate, HA! TAKE THAT!

I exercised for days,For months and for years;Eventually I lost the weight,

Now I shed no more tears.
