Hello anonymous

Great entry for the
Not funny but funny writing prompt contest. It's pretty funny and true for many people.

I know many people have the same problem. You must be european, we don't use kilos in the usa. Where are you from? I'm originally from Spain.


Good luck!

This made me smile and I can identify with your words here, at the start of the lockdown I had muffin tops, but I decided to use the isolation to achieve my goal of losing weight and now my muffin tops have disappeared! Ha ha ha, this is such a fun poem and I was entertained, love Dolly x

Wry humor--very clever--a common lockdown lament expressed in fine form--Covid kilos!--lazy bones poke (how can you still see them under the blubber?) This is fun! Good luck. Cheers. LIZ

Congrats on your prize!

Here's a very topical subject - our tendency to overeat during lockdown in Covid 19- portrayed well and the battle most of us have while we are working from home -well done

Nice entry for the "not funny but funny" contest! It looks like the "over-indulgence" diet has won millions of adepts all around the World. It comes like a relief valve to our "over-boundary" life: don`t go; don`t shake hands; no kisses at all: not, not and more not`s to come. So many over- limitations ends in a dead-end situation: over-weight!
Nice artwork to illustrate the (not so) funny moment! Good Job!

ha ha ha I am so right there with you! I put pounds on, too during the lockdown and have not be able to get them off. You've done a good job of framing a motivation to do so, though, so I wish you luck!
Great job and good luck on the contest!
Susan
