Three Easy Ways To Lose Weight

Have you already picked out your outfit for this year's prom? You might want to consider the following... so that it still fits on the big night. Discovering that you have gained five pounds is not something we even want to contemplate.

*Belly dancing...

Now this has to be the easiest and the most fun activity to every hit the mid section. I discovered it quite by accident when my library brought in a rotating collection of videos that we could sign out. I had never considered or knew very much about belly dancing so thought that it might just be something a little different. And you probably know by now, exercise and moi… aren’t the best of buddies. I want fun and most... aren't!

*Pacing Is Good For You

Now that I have discovered pedometers, I wear mine constantly and I'm always looking for ways to add steps to my daily count. Pacing is just one of them. While the coffee pot is dripping... you guessed it, I pace. Whenever I am waiting for anything, I have gotten into the habit of pacing. Heaven knows how many miles I have clocked with this new activity.

*Outdoors With You

Did you know that building a snowman can burn about 285 calories. Now does it get any more fun than that? And no, you can't let the kids do all the work.
