START SOMETHING POSITIVE
Momentum can be difficult to establish. And that's what makes it so valuable. Because once you have it going in your favor, momentum can be hard to stop. With momentum on your side, small efforts can bring big results, and those big results can lead to even bigger ones. Yes, momentum takes some effort and commitment to put into motion. And it is very much worth the trouble. Take the time and make the effort to start something positive. Even though, in the short term, it would be easier and more comfortable to just do nothing, look past those immediate concerns. Look ahead to that point where momentum kicks in, and consider the value of putting it to work in your favor. Then get up, get going, and get to work on building that momentum. Start something positive, and create some valuable momentum. You'll be able to ride that momentum as far as you can imagine.

Inspired yet?
And on to some yummy recipes...(in addition to the good ones that came along with your packet!). Here is a recipe for Artichoke and Sun-Dried Tomato Stuffed Chicken Breasts that I plan on making this weekend (of course with modifications!). I am going to use fresh ingredients instead of ones in a jar, omit the butter (use EVOO in place of it), and add chicken stock instead of the white wine to deglaze. You can make whatever modifications you want to this recipe, you can also substitute the veggies for whatever ones that interest you! And here is a recipe for Grilled Salmon with Pineapple, Mango, and Strawberry Salsa (YUM). You might be like me and have your grill packed away because after all...it is winter! So I am just going to bake the salmon instead of grilling it. If you have an indoor grill (lucky you) go ahead and use that.
Also, you may want to weigh, measure, and take updated photos of yourself on Sunday. This will help you see the progress that you have made thus far! I wish everyone a wonderful, sunny, stress-free weekend!
Those recipes sound great! I did my measurements and weight and I'm lovin' it!!! Thank you again Dr. Vanessa for your words of encouragement, inspiration, knowledge and insight... for some of us (me) that is just what we (I) need to stick to it, keep going, get moving and have fun!!!
