My new key to happiness

The secret to happiness is not to get what you want but to want what you already have. Think about this thought. Does it not seem that discontent comes when you think you really have to have more stuff. This seems to bring us down. Take away the want, and you might take away the unhappiness and put back in the fullfillment. Appreaciate the fact that you are striving for a healthy life style despite the obstacles. So enjoy the ride to your new way of life.

Hope all well out there! Good Holidays.

Everything can be made into a game.
Don't walk when you can run
If you don't like it, don't eat it.
Laugh: it feels good.
The world should be full of color.
It's always more fun with friends around.
Anything is possible.
Think like you have your whole world ahead of you.
Good advice Right?

This post realy does not have anything to do with round 19 but I thought it was fynny and wanted to end with a hig note.

From New York times magazines
Avoid snack foods with "OH" such as Doritos, Fritos etc
NO second helpings
Don't talk about past meals..enjoy what is front of you. SAVOR the moment.
Try to eat healthy BUT do not obsess over rules
Don't eat anything that took more energy to ship than to gow
NEVER eat something that is pretending to be something else: textured vegtable protein, artificial sweeterners, etc.
