Dear Fat Tuesday

I have something I need to say loud and clear to Fat Tuesday, if it's listening:

THIS IS THE LAST TIME I'LL BE FAT WITH YOU.

Look, it's nothing personal.  I've just made this deal with myself.  And I know that next year at this time, I just can't be the person I am now.  It's about transformation, don't you see?  This go around, with each pound lost, I feel transformed. Not just thinner or healthier but completely different.  So I just don't see myself being fat on Fat Tuesday ever again.

I'll admire you from afar with your King Cake and Beignets and all sorts of wonderful yummies.  But I will not, cannot, ever go back.

Sorry, Fat Tuesday.  Looks like you better take a good look at me today, because I just ain't going to be this way when you stop back around again.
