As we approach the end of 2007, I can't help but look back and see what happened this year. It was a year of accomplishments and setbacks (aren't they all?). The highlights were the launching of the website http://www.startfresh.com/, and some new foods in the supermarkets - Start Fresh popcorn and biscotti which take their place alongside out Start Fresh carob-coated rice cakes.
Personally, I can say I gave up diet coke (addictive and the phosphoric acid takes the calcium from your bones) and recently (3 weeks ago) gave up coffee (again!). And for the new year? I'd love to find the time to exercise more! What have you accomplished this year and what do you hope to work on?
This week we are also surrounded by a lot of lights, noise, some of us have a different schedule - all eating triggers. It is important to be aware of both your environment and your thoughts all the time. Just like a mischievous child, if we take our eyes off of ourselves for one minute, we're in trouble. Pay attention to what you are thinking......remember Jack Welch, the billionaire corporate mogul, who says "the harder I work, the luckier I get". Have a great week!
