"Our attitude toward life determines life's attitude towards us."
--Earl Nighting

Are you of the attitude to make things happen, to give it your best shot? Sometimes what we ask for in life we get, not always, but sometimes. I know for me at the end of a day, when I have given it all I have at work and have taken time to smell the roses of my life and my family, have done the program well and managed the exercise, I hit that pillow with such a different feeling than when I half do it.

Conversly on those days that I haven't managed my time or my energies well or fallen off the proverbial wagon in one way or another, I hit the pillow but I am so restless.

My attitude towards life and how I go about it absolutely determines how I feel about myself and on many occasion how life treats me. I worked for someone once who had a proverb they always used, "the harder you work, the luckier you get". That is so true with so many things, this program and life in general not withstanding.

As we end March and bring in April, don't be your own April's fool, give youself the best shot at life each day, Bring on the winners!

Have a TGIF day, Making some plans for the weekend, put in some fun!

Falling off the wagon...there're those words I"ve been dreading all week...because I have.

People are so nice to bring us meals this week, but they've brought pizza 3 times...and pizza is my #1 problem food. I've even made sure I have eaten LOTS of good low-carb snacks before I get home...and there it is...the box...the cheese...the meats...the garlic butter dipping sauce...AARRGGHH!!!!!

SO---my new mantra....NO MORE PIZZA! NO MORE PIZZA! NO MORE PIZZA!!!

And don't try to give me advice...I'm WAY past advising...it's a full-on addiction that I'm facing here.
