Chocolate Fix Friday

I was reading my book - You on a Diet. A recommendation was made that you put a small piece of chocolate (70% cocoa)in your mouth and meditate - savor the flavor. Do this to reduce stress and increase serotonin. I kind of like that idea. I highly recommend the book (not just because it recommends eating chocolate and meditating!)

I found a fun site - Virtual Chocolate. It's an interesting site. The name caught my attention. There were several quotes about chocolate. Here's one of my favorites:

"It's not that chocolates are a substitute for love. Love is a substitute for chocolate. Chocolate is, let's face it, far more reliable than a man." Miranda Ingram

Motivation Monday

Need a dose of Motivation, positive thoughts or inspiration? I found a good site. I am into reading quotes and bits of wisdom. To me it is a quick boost! The site is www.motivateus.com Here are a few quotes that I like:

" It's amazing how many cares disappear when you decide not to be something, but to be someone."--- Coco Chanel

" Your past is not your potential. In any hour you can choose to liberate the future."Marilyn Ferguson

" The superior man is modest in his speech, but excels in his actions."Confucius

I added the website to my favorite's list. I guess I like the fact that you can get bits of wisdom in small pockets of time!

TRAINING PROGRESS:
Exercise: Leslie Sansone 3 mile walk

Today was rough, but I completed my walk! I am fortunate that my sister in law is going and will be running the 1/2 marathon. This really keeps me on track. Now if I get the eating in line I will be set!
