From the Journal of a Competitive Dieter

by
Liliana Kohann

My friends want to know why when I’m on a diet
I feel so fulfilled and great.
So here I am revealing my SECRET,
what I do when I want to lose weight.


I absolutely refuse to be
like others who failed before.
One diet is not good enough for me.
I’ve got to do better and MORE!


I go on THREE diets at the same time
and I eat them together like that:
one high in carbs,
second high in protein
and the third one
                  high in fat.
