"Nothing
in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is
more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded
genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated
derelicts. Persistence and determination are omnipotent. The slogan press on
has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race. No person was
ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he
gave." Calvin Coolidge
Okay
SuperTroops,
It’s
been a wonderful day in the Pacific Northwest with the sun shining
bright, it's been warm, mesmerizing and intoxicating.
My
3rd body fat test was this morning and I’m gonna give it to you
quick and straight………I am blaming my lack of progress Girl Scout Cookies!!! Yes, I gladly traded in my daily servings of
fruits, grains, fats, protein for those cookies which are full of
carbohydrates by the way.
Grrrrr, my body fat is 24.8 ........weight is the same and I lost .02% body fat this month!
And you know what? I'm absolutely okay with it. Eating healthy balanced meals is a permanent way of life for me and so is indulging in moderation.
How many cookies did I consume this past month? Hmmmm, I lost track after the fifth one - lol. But in case you want any, I have two boxes stashed in my freezer, one in the trunk of my car and one in a kitchen cabinet. But please don't tell my husband.
Folks be good to yourself and to each other and remember to train happy and train well.
Your friend in health, movement and celebration,
RR
