    Go with chili. Fiber-filled beans, lean ground beef/turkey, lots of onions and peppers.... sounds like a pretty good snowstorm recipe to me.

    Turn up your heat to 85 degrees, put on your bikini, and have some shrimp and a skinny margarita.

    Making beef stew (with carrots, onion and potatoes AND barley) for dinner. Maybe a beer or wine later. Not a cloud in the sky. :D

    Are you expecting people to tell you not to drink beer or eat carbs?

    Well if it's a bad enough snowstorm, you'll be stuck at home so will have plenty of time to exercise, right? I say go for it. All of it.

    Cuddle for warmth, and then have lots and lots of sex, then you will earn extra calories to eat more stuff.

    You don't gas grill outside because of a little snow? For shame. You should be drinking beer outside while you're grilling the meat.

    I am a big chili person so I would make a huge pot of chili in the crockpot! I also tend to make crockpot cheeseburgers and baked ziti.

    Try spending some quality time with the lovely lady you're posing with in the photo
    Very tasty and calorie free

    You need to pull out your crock pot and make some veggie stew.

    What region do you live in? In a snowstorm here you couldn't even keep the grill it, not to mention get it hot enough to ever cook anything. lol.

    This is a great time to "eat back your exercise calories" get the shovel then go inside and have a beer! That is my plan! :)

    It's a little known scientific fact that calories consumed during a snowstorm don't count. So, if you have been craving that supersized portion of breaded, deep fried pork fat, now is the time to go for it. :laugh:
