You might be in a hurry to drop your relatives off at the airport or go and see the new Police Academy movie, but should you be in a hurry to lose weight?  Do you have a high school reunion or wedding or dominoes competition coming up and you want to quickly lose some weight to look good for the old gang?  We’ve all been there, but is it a good idea?  This week, Catherine and Donald talk about how setting a deadline is not a plan for weight loss.  Putting your habits in place one at a time, is. Just like with the tortoise and the hare, slow and steady wins the race.  Plus, Catherine plans for 6th grade cotillion, Donald is going to his event, and the couple buy each other a sparkling water which is definitely as fun as a Coke.
