Easter...Earth Day...Mother's Day...Memorial Day...Flag Day...Father's Day...Fourth of July...Labor Day....

If you were waiting for a good time to start, now is good.

If you are waiting for that perfect time to begin your new life, now is good too.

If you would rather stuff yourself silly on chocolate eggs, do the Mother's Day Champagne Brunch and go back for thirds, suck on that pulled pork BBQ and potato salad at that Memorial Day picnic, eat that homemade ice cream at the Fourth of July.....then I've got a question for you:

What are you doing here?

I mean really, why are you here?

Because there will always be an occasion to pig out.  There will always be another holiday around the corner.  There will always be reasons to justify going off plan.  And if you are one who has oriented your life around food, then you are always on the lookout for those opportunities.

But what if you could choose optimal health today?  Today only?  What if someone walked up to you and said "Hey, you've got a chance of a lifetime, and this chance expires at midnight tonight.  Do you want optimal health or don't you?" 

Would you waffle?  Would you lament all the Dove Chocolate Valentine's Squares you would, necessarily, need to give up? 

Or, would you tell them to come back and ask you.....

Tomorrow?

What'll it be?

Someday you will wake up and realize that TODAY IS ALL YOU'VE GOT.  Sink or swim, baby!

Rinse and Repeat!
