 Try
the Canoe Twist for a lean waist. Stand upright, feet
apart. Lock your fingers to create a solid grip. Exhale,
and sweep the hands, arms, shoulders, and chest to the
left, as if you were rowing a canoe. At the same time,
lift the left knee up and to the right. Inhale and
return to the starting position. Exhale and perform the
movement to the right. Keep switching sides for 20 reps.

The best direction
 Consider
for a moment the very best thing that could happen for
you today. Then, think about the worst thing that could
happen today.
Now, consider this: What can you do right now, and what
actions can you take throughout the day that will result
in the making best thing happen and keeping the worst
thing from happening? Answer that question, and you've
defined your direction for the day. Success will come
when you work consistently toward the things you desire.
Keep in mind that the outcome of the day is mostly up
to you. You want the best? Then make the effort that
will bring you the best. There are plenty of great
things that could happen today. You have the choice and
the power to make them happen. Keep your eyes on the
prize, and your feet moving toward it.

Cover and marinate in refrigerator for at least 2
hours.
Using four kabob skewers, arrange 3 pieces of
chicken and 2 pieces each of zucchini, pepper and
tomatoes per skewer. For easier grilling, start and
end each skewer with chicken.
-
Coat grill lightly with oil to prevent sticking.
Place skewers on medium-hot grill. Turn frequently
and brush with reserved marinade. Cook for 18-25
minutes or until juices run clean. Cooking time will
depend on size of chicken pieces and temperature. *

In meantime, for dressing, place ingredients in food
processor or blender. Puree and set aside.
-
After removing kabobs from grill, let stand 5
minutes. Serve with dressing on side.

*An alternative cooking method is to pre-heat
oven to 400 degrees. Place skewers on shallow
baking dish on center rack. Bake 10 minutes.
Baste and turn over, baste and bake for
additional 10-15 minutes or until chicken is
cooked through.
