I'm getting a lot worse at re-directing my thoughts away from the Board and back on the job at hand.    Quote: |

If you increase the "rocking angle" you will be basically doing abs exercises. And if you rock back and forth fast enough, you'll have some cardio in there as well. Yeah......... I think this might actually work! Maybe we should have a monthly "rocking challenge(d)"... for all us poor souls at ADBB.

"The truth is that temptation lurks everywhere, unless you deny yourself a social and working life and the attendant pleasures of eating out. I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
