Celebrate Good Times C'mon!

It's the end of the work week, and we want to go out on the town and celebrate a week well done. It's a reward for keeping our noses to the grindstone and figuring out solutions to pressing problems. It's also a reward for being disciplined during the week with nutrition and exercise, for enjoying super stews and super salads and not eating out of a box. It's a reward for grinding out hour after hour of aerobic exercise and weightlifting, which some days is more fun than other days.

Out on the town, we might eat and drink a few more calories than normal. We might indulge ourselves with four-legged meat, potatoes, bread and dessert. So be it. An occasional indulgence will keep us from everyday bingeing on the white foods and foods packed with sugar, salt and fat. We will celebrate — and not feel guilty in the least — knowing that overall we remain on the path toward vitality and well-being.
