Good Morning Everyone! We are here because we decided to get healthy or to keep from having problems later in life. We decided to get into shape. We decided to lose weight. The key is decided. We made up our minds. We are determined! We must not simply hang in there. No! We must fight! We must take a stance against Winter. We must decide Winter will not get us down. We will kick Winter's Butte! We will exercise inspite of what Winter has to through at us! We will put on our armor and brave the cold! We will not be defeated! GO TEAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On World Vegetarian Day, most people aren't willing to trade in their turkey for tofurkey. Luckily, you can still reap the benefits of vegetarianism by trying flexitarianism on for size.
