“Off The Wagon” Adventure of the Week:
*Disclaimer: To be honest, Alex didn’t actually eat the pizza pictured above (he did however, drink the beer hiding behind it). Also, to his credit, up until this past weekend he has probably been “on the wagon” more than most of us, but after hearing about his eating escapades this past weekend (which included large amounts of pizza consumption), I thought that this picture would be appropriate.
Enjoyable Read of the Day:
Using these as motivational quotes for whenever you fall of the wagon…
“I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”
…or things I shouldn’t eat.
“Failure is only a temporary change in direction to set you straight for your next success.”
…key word: “temporary”
“Our business in life is not to succeed, but to continue to fail in good spirits.”
Moral of the story: If you going to take a trip off the wagon, you might as well enjoy it.
He who fails to plan, plans to fail.
Planning ahead goes a long way when it comes to eating well.
