I think sometimes we get so caught up in the “magic” of
Christmas that we lose sight of the real meaning.
If you cannot find “the perfect gift” consider the following….
Christmas Gift Suggestions:
To your enemy, forgiveness.
To your opponent, tolerance.
To your friend, your heart.
To a customer, service.
To all, charity.
To every child, a good example,
To yourself, respect.
These are gifts that can be given any
day of the year.
MAINTAIN………NO GAIN….. is what we are going to try and do the month of
December. Don’t get discouraged because you are not losing weight. Just
maintaining your weight for this month will be a step in the right
direction. You won’t have all that “holiday weight gain” to lose as we
begin… A NEW YEAR…A NEW YOU…….
2013 holds promise for all of us to take control of our eating
habits and start living a healthy lifestyle that we all deserve.
It was nice to see so many of my chapters at Fall Rally. 310 Brockton
performed a funny skit. 240
Abington had 3 members in the “Campfire Chat.” They had all lost 100
pounds and it was inspiring to hear their stories.
SRD will be held next year April 12th and 13th in
Sturbridge, MA. We are going
back to the future as we celebrate the 50’s and 60’s.
I will be having a resume workshop at
my house on Sunday, Jan 6th and Gail will be having one at
her house on Saturday, Jan.5th. I sent out a prior notice
this is just a reminder. Any
questions please e-mail me.
Our 1st
Inspiration Workshop of 2013
A NEW YEAR … A
NEW YOU!
Are you determined to meet your weight loss goals this year? If
healthier habits and weight loss are among your new year’s resolutions,
give yourself a pat on the back for making health a top priority.
The hard part is actually sticking to it and making real changes!
Gail and I are having an Inspiration Workshop on Saturday,
January 19th. It will be held at the Faith Chapel Assemblies
of God -340 Pleasant Street, Bridgewater. Exit 15 off route 24. 9:30AM
-1:30 PM. Would you like 2013 to be the year you reach your goal, the
year you change your lifestyle, the year you break away from old habits,
the year you are in control?
If you answered YES to any of these questions then join us and together
we will begin to reshape our lives into what we really want to be.
Nicole Cormier, RD will be our guest speaker. She was the speaker we had
at our “salad bar” workshop.
The following are suggestions from
Martha Stewart (M. S.) and Maxine
M.S….To keep
potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes
M.S…..When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking pan, use a bit of
the dry cake mix instead and there won't be any white mess on the
outside of the cake.
Maxine…..Go to the bakery! Hell, they'll even decorate it for you!
M.S…….Cure for
headaches: take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The
throbbing will go away.
Maxine….Take a
lime, mix it with tequila, chill and drink! All your pains go
away!
M.S……Don’t throw away leftover wine.
Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.
Thought for the month: May you always have love to share, health to spare and friends that care.
