Quote

Motivational Quote - The principle is competing against yourself.  It’s about self-improvement, about being better than you were the day before.
SparkPeople Translation
Do you hold yourself to the standards of other people, wishing you could be better than the next guy? Maybe this is motivating you, but an even greater skill is to just want to be better than yourself. How about pushing yourself to eat better, or walk longer after dinner each day? Goal setting is a great way to “compete” against yourself. You select the end result that you want in any concentration that you choose. Then, it is up to you, and only you, to work to achieve those goals. Thus, you’ll be pushing yourself towards greatness, not creating unnecessary competition against others.

Grilled Cheese Pizza Sandwich
Submitted By: PUNKGIRL213

I got bored and decided to try something new....a completely random idea made an awesome lunch! Instead of the boring old grilled cheese sandwich try a "Grilled Cheese Pizza Sandwich"! It tastes just like cheese pizza with less fat and without all the grease and calories! Plus you get about 25% of your calcium in one meal.....could it get any better? Pair this with a salad and you'd have a great pizzaria style lunch without the calories attached... or the bill :) Full Recipe
