To us

  • Fat Chicks UK or UK Fat Chicks
    No matter our name, we’re in here with the bricks
    Friends I have found, right here
    Friends to share with, laugh and cheer

    Between our losses, struggles and gains
    Our hubbies, work and the weans
    We’re here all night and day
    Chatting, sharing, talking what may

    All are made welcome, many come and go
    Friends galore, and none a foe
    Laughs, this year we’ve had a lot
    Hugs a plenty, tears, not a lot

    Our Posy is very nearly there
    Good advice she does share
    We eagerly await, her achieving her aim
    We’re all secretly jealous, just the same

    Tupperware Queen, losing weight so fine
    But even she struggles, when water turns to wine
    Teel, with Holly, walking, whatever the weather
    She will lose those last pounds, we’re in it together

    To the ever positive, weight losing Leigh
    Her willpower shows how it should be
    And me, I need the advice and tips
    I’m afraid to confess, I all to often have blips

    And Veggie our moderator
    Her wit, her knowledge, our facilitator
    Her love of reality telly
    Has given us many laughs in our belly

    Across the pond, far away from Blighty
    We have Britinnj and Cat90
    And many others have come and gone
    As this year has marched along

    Delaney hasn’t been able to post
    Since 3FC moved to a new host
    She hasn’t got a connection, well
    Haste ye back, and quick, Mel

    Sarah, losing her trousers when she sneezed
    As down the scale her weight breezed
    Flumper with her work and kids and man
    If anyone can do this, then she can

    And to all those I’ve failed to mention
    The value of your input is not in question
    Just the lack of my skill at rhyme
    And the fact that I’ve noticed the time

    Many have moved on this year
    Please come visit sometime near
    2003, I hope you have a ball
    A very happy New Year, to one and all
