08/08/05 The Atkins diet fad

Oh Where Oh Where did Atkins Go! Oh where oh where did Adkins go, the darling of dieters is out of favor for those in the know. Oh Mr. Adkins we did what you said, We gave you our money then gave up all our bread. We made you rich by buying the books, tapes and your spiel All for the sake that boring protein meal. Ah&.. You forgot we are a fickle bunch, with no attention span , so when the pounds didn't drop off , we moved on to the next diet plan. To South beach, High Carbs and Prism we turned, Leaving your company bankrupt, such hard marketing lessons learned. Meanwhile we are all just as plump as before, thriving on junk food, soda and more. Despite all the fresh fruit and vegetables our farmers grow, we still fail to eat healthy and exercise, ya know. Now poor Mr. Adkins please don't feel bad, It's just we don't like to believe we've been had. We'd simply rather move on to the next diet fad, Where we will fork out more money, stay fat and then and get mad.
