Version 3: Do You Think Maybe You Need to Exercise

[Todd]

Hi Claire, some comments for you.

I believe that I'm ok.--This reads fine but as first lines go it doesn't do much to draw you in. Perhaps a more evocative starting point.
Like chocolate chips in bread batter,--Like this both for content and implication
I'm homely with that little extra something.--extra might be a stronger end word thematically. Maybe try swapping the order "something extra" just a thought. In general, I wonder if this strophe would be better served ending with the I believe that I'm okay and mirroring what you so in S2. Again just thoughts

Average height, weight, foot size.
My glasses mist over at the mere mention of the word diet,--While this is related you're moving away from the exercise question pretty quickly. Might be okay or you may want to rework the driving question.
I am a satisfactory version of me.--You could choose to make these statements go in a direction either getting more resolved on your fine default state or growing more and more uncertain. That might be a structural change if you decide to go that way.

But, someone always needs to introduce those eight little words.
Eight words drifting in a polluted sea of misconception,
Unwanted but present, bobbing along--I like bobbing along playing off your previous line.
In between the lies, small
But still deception nonetheless.

Surely they should be wrapped in cotton wool,
Coated in Candy Floss to add to their sweetness,
Masking the bitter pill, the caustic voice,
The basic dismissal
Of your natural image, your choice of how you see yourself.

I know that I will never be perfect
With desires so much more than a selfie stick & millionaire status,
I will always be emotionally charged,
The Duracell bunny stuck in hyper-mode, but I have hope
In each photographic image, I can cope with the inflections.

I know that each roll of softly kneaded skin,--like this, for its doughy sense and its echo from line 2
Each crazy paved line,
Is a memory, good & bad.--something a little less generic

I do not believe in Photoshop!
So pass me the chocolate fudge cake
With a double scoop of salted caramel ice cream & make me smile--like the specificity of the dessert. I'd consider some closing line that gives a sense of closure back to the opening or the title though.

I hope some of that is helpful.

Best,

Todd
