    Walked the dog for 15 minutes in the snow...Roxie stopped for frequent snow-swimming breaks. Then shoveled the driveway for 15 minutes

    The scale was not kind this morning. Up 2 pounds... But I'm thinking of it as pure muscle from shoveling yesterday...and more today. Or it could be salty snacks from Super Bowl. Nah, it's muscle!

    Love that you said. I have been paying since Nov and only been once :-) (*)
    ... I've just recently got a new TV too which has youtube built in to it, so it comes in handy for exercise vids on youtube once the kids have gone to bed :)

    Genius idea. Thanks. Why didn't I think of this. :D

    Sounds like an excellent idea, dancing and cleaning. I have 2 boys 11yrs, and 5 months and I never have time after or before work to get to a gym. I take walks on my breaks but that's all I had been managing so far. Will see if the boys want to dance with me. :smile:

    Got some doggie playing/ dancing in. Roxie only lasted about 5 minutes! Squeeze in some good music, and dance away the stress and calories. I feel great..and ready to face another snow day.

    I hit my 10000 steps... But ate too much Pizza Hut. Too much of a good thing. I did log all of it though. I have to be accountable of what I put in my mouth!

    Today it's -13 outside, so after I get the kids to school, it's time for a tropical dance party!

    Cleaning the bathrooms and blaring the Mama Mia soundtrack is the plan today. It'll get me moving! :smile:

    www.benderfitness.com has free workout videos. She does all of them in her home. And www.doyogawithme.com has tons of free yoga videos at all different difficulty levels. I'm a mama of 5 and had to cancel my gym membership. It can be hard to motivate myself to do something at home especially with kids around.

    Love it Enochsig! My goal is to shampoo carpeting and a tornado tidy today. Have fun and turn up the music!

    Taverafamily, you're doing great! I hated going to the gym, and never went. I have so much more fun dancing and jogging in place at home. It's such a good mood boost, too. Love your ideas!
