Tip of the day-Aunt WHO?!!

Did you know that when it's time for your ummm, cycle..your metabolism skyrockets? That's why your appetite increases during that "time of the month". Try to avoid the scale during this time as you will see it jump up due to water weight gain. Try to capitalize on your increased metabolism during this time. Even though we don't feel like it, get that extra 10-15 minutes of exercise in. Keep your pantry and fridge stocked with healthier versions of the foods you crave during this time. Edy's slow churned ice cream is half the fat of regular ice cream! Special K cracker chips are great for that salty fix-you can have approximately 27 chips for 110 calories and 2.5 grams of fat. Also, the 100 calorie packs of cookies are great too. Since you have to open each pack individually, you will be more aware of how many you are eating.
Enjoy your day and keep up the great work!
