Something to try
So ladies I've decided to try an exercise plan that will be easy for me to follow and possibley some of you, I'm calling it the while you weight routine. Basically I will do simple standing ab, leg arm ect routines while I'm doing household chores or watching television. I think it will work if I can remember to do them ha ha!!!! Anyway the first time I tried this I couild feel the burn so I've decided to keep it up. I do a minimum of 15 reps of, for instance, leg lifts or those Tae Boe kicks ( I love Billy Blanks) throughout the day. I figure this way I'm getting a half hour workout at least using the time I'd be standing or sitting around doing nothing. I'm working by buns right now. So dust off your old exercise move and do them while you weight.

Serial Snacker ( Da Da Da Dum )
Yes it's true as it says in the title I snack a whole lot, even sadly, when I'm not really hungry. I know I'm not alone but it has to stop. I've read some stuff on this subject and here are a couple of suggestions.... Eat breakfast. Breakfast jump starts your metabolism but I find I'm also less hungry during the day if I eat a hearty/healthy breakfast. Eat 6 small meals a day. Isn't that what I've been doing?I am a serial snacker after all,right? Wrong! The meals can't consist of cheese cake slices and coffee or toaster strudel and ice cream.for this one maybe we should set our watches and prepare our approved snacks the night before. When you feel a snack attack get something to drink,no not a soda or milkshake, try some hot or iced tea or good old fashioned water. I read in Bob Green's book Make The Connection that thirst can be confused with hunger. Have a cold or hot drink then wait 20 minutes if your still hungry then get a little something (Healthy!!!) to eat.
So that's all for now and pray for me that I can take my own advice:)
