It should be a point of pride for every man

To achieve the dad diet

New dads, old dads

They are all worthy of the diet 

The diet starts with eggs and only eggs

The dad will appear haggard and skinny

He gives up many calories so that his wife

Can be happy in pregnancy 

He works hard and is away most of the day 

To make sure that his progeny 

Can live safe and secure most of their days

The dad diet takes a turn for the better 

As the children get older

Their caloric intake is higher

Meaning chicken nuggies and food that mom makes is too little

Cookouts become the new nuggies 

Dads begin to regain their color and begin to gain their beer belly

But as the children become teenagers that belly starts to get in the way

So dad must go to the gym

The teens go with him and outpace him at every turn

It is when the dads are on the cusp of being fit

Does the teenage move out and start their own lives and families

Though the dad is happy to see them go

The mother wants to be pregnant again and start all over.
