This blog is for my friends - and their friends - a resource for random comments mostly focused on nutritional information, but would include related areas of overall health, exercise and attitude. I am dedicated - and have always been - to helping anyone who asks about any of these subjects, and if I don't know the answer, I will find it for you. So, ask away...m.

It's a choice!
I saw a lady driving a pink SUV with horns on the front of it - I know, I wouldn't believe it either if I hadn't seen it! You'd never see me in that, but however she came by it, she was driving it, so she must have been okay with it. That's a choice she made, and probably one she's going to be stuck with for awhile. We all get to make choices - how we wear our hair,(and what color it is!), what kind of dog jumps on you when you walk in the door, or even do you watch American Idol or ice skating- some you're stuck with for awhile, others, thankfully, can be switched instantly. You have a choice to get up early and go work out, or rollover and go back to sleep (that decision has to be made instantly or you're back asleep in no time!). You can choose a doughnut or oatmeal, a turkey sandwich or a cheeseburger, a light beer or a chocolate martini. Monday starts a new month, and you can make decisions every day for 31 days that lead to a healthier lifestyle. It takes 21 days to change a habit, and you get to pick what you want to change to get the results you want. Nothing will change if you choose not to do anything; think about it over the weekend - come April 1st, do you want to look like a pink thing?? Have a great weekend! Melissa
