A Chain Reaction Leads To The Mafia

A couple of weeks ago, I was talking to my daughter over breakfast.

She was telling me about a dream she had. In her dream, she was on an airplane going on vacation when suddenly she realized she forgot her luggage.

Talk about a stress dream, right?

Anyway, this led me to remember a time when I was having dinner with some people. I’m actually going way back.  During dinner one of the women was boasting about how she called the airline after she got home from vacation, to report that her luggage was lost. She was going through her suitcase piece by piece as she told the airline representative what was in the *lost* suitcase.

Needless to say, these aren’t people I associate with anymore.

I was telling my daughter the story and how I thought her husband was related to the mafia or something. Which led us to talking about the mafia.

Which then led to my daughter telling me about the mafia game, which I had never heard of.

You get the drift. It caused a chain reaction.

And so it is with exercise and healthy eating.

When you begin to lose weight, you start to feel better about yourself. You begin to *want* to eat healthier.

You wake up in the morning and jump on the scale. Woohoo. You’re a pound lighter. Your clothes feel a little bit loose as you get dressed.

So instead of eating a bagel heavily laden with cream cheese, you opt for half a grapefruit instead. You order a salad at lunch instead of getting a burger and fries.

Therefore, creating a chain reaction.

Are you ready to create a chain reaction?

“Fit For Sanity” is a monthly newsletter designed to do *exactly* that.
