Thank you for the tip from your nutritionist. I can use all the tips I can get!

I've been feeling pretty down the last couple of days so I decided I needed to look into some inspirational quotes to share regarding hope. The first one is by Christopher Reeve:

"Once you choose hope, anything's possible."

Then I saw one by Dale Carnegie:

“Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all."

These both spoke to me loudly so I thought I would share them with my emoticon and hope they spoke to you just as loudly.

Have a wonderful weekend and choose hope!

Oh me too Donna. I melt the peanut butter in the microwave and dip the bananas. Love it, better than ice cream almost. I am having a peanut butter and banana sandwich today on whole wheat bread for lunch.

Thanks for visiting my spark page. I am glad to hear that you have your problems repaired. How awesome that your co-workers are patterning their lives after yours. I am sure the third one will soon realize the need for healthier as opposed to skipping meals. I would love to hear more about what you have learned from your nutritionist. How fun to have walking partners too. Have a fantabulous day! emoticon emoticon emoticon
