Snow Day

Today is another snow day! Last week, we had Wednesday and Thursday off, I took off Friday because I went to FL. This week, we had Monday off for MLK day, Tuesday was a snow day. We had school Wednesday and Thursday and yet another snow day today! Crazy!

It's hard staying on track when you really have nothing to do all day! Some tips for keeping it together:

• Work out at home, first thing - it will keep you motivated to do well all day!
• Stick as closely as possible to your normal eating routine, it will help avoid unnecessary snacking.
• Do housework. We are all busy during the week, use this time to catch up on laundry or cleaning.
• Watch a movie. It'll give you something to do and take your mind off any cravings you might have.
• Go outside. Play in the snow - go walking, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, build a snowman, shovel.

I suppose I didn't quite follow my tip today. I woke up with the intent to workout. At my boyfriend's house they have a treadmill and stationary bike. I really don't feel like doing the treadmill and the bike left my butt so sore last time!

Tomorrow is usually my rest day so I'm going to swap and go to the gym tomorrow A.M.
