"Eating Healthy"

I am insecure of what I eat:

It gives me smelly breath and sluggish steps.
It gives me sleepy eyes and slower cries.

I wish I ate better,
But popcorn and icecream are SO GOOD.
But chex mix and pie are SO GOOD.
But cheesecake and pita chips are SO GOOD.

I have a hard time holding back.
In fact,
I can't hold back.

I love myself, my body,
But not my eating habits.
