Hey everyone... So what are everyone's favorite things to do outside of dieting and excercising or even if they are physical activities...

I enjoy playing poker!! :) We have a local poker club here in Atlanta and I love it, I learned how to play Texas Holdem through this club, and when I am not working out or at work or on line filling out myfitness or on my facebook, I am playing a tourn. at one of the venues, or online poker.

I have even played in a few live tourneys and cash games. My boyfriend and I enjoy it a lot and it's something we can do together.

Would love to hear everyone else's fav. hobby or sport or avtivity etc..

    I like to read, and crochet! I'm teaching myself how to make hats. I also enjoy taking my kids to the park (but since the weather is crappy that doesn't happen often) ... I'm really just a homebody tho, just being home makes me happy

    I just got into country dancing, and I am forcing everyone to practice with me.
    I love taking the kids to the park here, they feed the ducks and geese.
    Reading is a favorite pass time, I am addicted to playing scrabble on pogo.

    Horse racing (not that my profile picture would give that away :laugh: ).

    I co-own two race horses with a friend of mine. And no I'm not a jockey (even after losing the weight that I have I would be arrested for cruelty to animals if I sat up on a poor horse :laugh: :laugh: )

    I am a prolific reader.

    I always have a book. Mostly its history, sociology, Bible and study guides, technical reading or news and news features. I also like to travel and see the cultural sites and natural phenomena.

    My perfect vacation would involve a cruise ship and a stack of books.

    My other favorite hobby is my grandson. Yep, that's his pic!

    I'm a crafter. I knit, sew and do local craft shows and fairs. When I can get away from that, I ride horses, geocache, and spend as much time as possible during the summer at the lake!
