      Ugh the weather lol. I do live in Texas but our mornings we have been getting down into the 20's so it does affect my morning walks (as I walk at 5am). But I have been staying busy with good old cadio DVD's :-)

      For Fun: What has been the most interesting part of the weather for you and how does it affect your ability to exercise? It's been so cold, I don't want to get out of bed until I absolutely have to and sometimes that is close to lunchtime. Isn't that terrible. I can totally do without winter anymore. :ohwell:

      Hey drillsgt75, somehow I follow you a lot! Hope you drink some hot water or tea, hot chocolate something to get you going in the morning. I am looking for ways to warm me up too. The interesting part of weather in winter for me is the scary feeling I have waking up to snow covered streets and then dreading going out there but needing to drive to get to the gym. Then, I feel I accomplished a lot by overcoming my fear and on top of that, I find out that driving to the gym is not THAT bad. :laugh: So still no excuses to miss the gym. I am going to focus on not missing the gym this month and not eating when I am not hungry.

      SW: (Starting weight) 150.4 last January

      I live in Vermont and its been insanely cold with a wind chill that takes your breath away so I can't go outside much :( Also finding it hard to control snacking when I'm a stay at home mom stuck indoors all the time!!!

      Well last week it was really slippery because of the cold and when I was running it was kinda dangerous ;P I had to watch to road the whole time but I made it safely. Luckily it isn't that cold anymore so that makes it a lot easier.
