Today is leans and greens day.
This will give you amazing energy! Another way to spin this is "no bread day", but that sounds painful! You won't miss anything if you get your starches from whole grains including things like brown rice, barley or oats or from beans or sweet potatoes.

Today, disrupt the pattern of one bad habit. 

Whatever it may be; create awareness in the one thing you have been contemplating changing. Just for today make it stop. It could be anything from having water instead of soda, or one less cup of coffee...to listening 
intently to somebody who needs you to listen when you usually don't, to not going to the pantry after dinner and instead reading a book. You get the point. Intentionally make a significant change today.
