As a peaceful warrior, I would choose when, where and how I would behave.
With that commitment, I began to live the life of a warrior.

"There are only two options regarding commitment;
you're either in or you're out.
There's no such thing as life in-between."
~Pat Riley

I loved Pat Riley's coaching style. His book inspired me in those early years of team building and management and now, coming across this quote, I am inspired to ask you in a whole new context...

are you in or out?

Making dietary lifestyle changes is only as hard as you make it. You can take teeny weeny steps or humongous steps or steps in between. The point is that you have decided to be in...decided to take the steps and improve your health and well being as well as being a part of improving the environment by learning about sustainable and Eco-friendly choices.

This game is your life...

are you in or out?

Make the commitment. Get the 411, be well, live well. ~j

Hi J,
Always nice to stop in for visit here! :-)

Re: this post, OUCH...I promise I'll be good!! Overall, my diet is really good...especially in comparison to the general public but sites like yours and having a general awareness of what is actually good for you really guilts you when you make a bad choice...thanks for keeping it real eh!

Re: your blueberry post...they are in season up here and our rides take us by field after field of ripe blueberries..YUM! Hard not to stop and have a go at em! ;-)

Hey! How are you? Glad to hear things are going well on the foot recovery. Yes, I am amazed that you are at 33 days on the countdown. WOWza!

Sorry on the OUCH. Guilt is not my intentione, just information so you can make informed choices :-)

We all slip up here and there. And then there is the lure from old days gone by. If you are enjoying a healthy diet 80-90% of the time, well check the guilt at the door and enjoy life.

Now I am jealous! Blueberries on the side of the road. Have a handful for me. Blue lips and all :-) ~j
