Stupid Snow - I Want to Exercise!

Good evening, readers!

Today was just one of those days, I guess. 

First of all, it's snowing. In March. And at my workplace, it was just a dusting. So I thought "oh no big deal, it will be fine." And everything was fine, until I got into Woodbury. For some reason Woodbury got like 6 inches of snow instead of the 1/2 inch at my workplace in St. Paul.

It was no joke.

So what do you guys do to keep active when the weather keeps you inside? I really enjoy walking outside. When I'm stuck inside I do workout videos, but it seems like I'll be active for 30-60 minutes and then laziness. So how can I keep up the activity when the weather sucks?

I was moderately active today, but it didn't help that I had a sore throat all day and the snow kept me from my afternoon walk back to my car. I still took 13,000 steps and burned 3,000 calories.

But the best part of today was my willpower! I didn't eat any of those doughnuts, even though they sat in the break room all day. I snacked on a handful of dill pickle chips (my absolute favorite) and a pear. I ate my regular turkey and cheese sandwich, yogurt, and an apple for lunch. And for dinner we had rotisserie chicken, potatoes and green beans.

I'm hoping that this means I have finally overcome the post-birthday binge sweets addiction. Who knows?

But we do have another work party tomorrow, and we know how tempting those can be.

Until then, readers.
