\"Happy
Happy Weight Loss<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Happiness and freedom begin with a clear understanding of one principle: some things are within our control, and some things are not. It is only after you have faced up to this fundamental rule and learn to distinguish between what you can and can’t control that inner tranquility and outer effectiveness become possible. ~ <\/em>Epictetus<\/a><\/p>\n

This quote happened across Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a>\u2019s desk this morning. She thought it the perfect \u201cmorning chew\u201d for those of us who are interested in permanent weight removal heretofore referred to as PWR (vs. temporary weight loss), as it highlights an important aspect of PWR.<\/p>\n

As she explained to me, \u201cSome things are within your control, and some things are not. It is only after you have faced up to the fact that no one is force feeding you nor is anyone twisting your arm to eat \u2018this or that,\u2019 that you can more effectively as well as easily and effortlessly travel the road to Sveltesville.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bottom Chew: Take responsibility for what goes down the hatch.<\/p>\n
