    I am up at 5am daily for my workout, so by the time I get home from work I am WIPED. Typically I will do a load of laundry, get dinner ready, feed my family, help my husband clean the kitchen, and collapse on the couch with a glass of wine or a cocktail. I'm in bed at 8:30p, as I really need a solid 8 hours of sleep each night.

    Monday through Thursday I will stop at the park & get a walk in if the weather cooperates. Friday nights are date night and DBF & I either go ballroom dancing (if there is a dance available) or bowling. I will sometimes do yoga after work if I have a stressful day. For non-food or tv hobbies, I read a bunch, and sometimes knit (which I can do while watching tv, but it keeps my hands busy so no snacking).

    I clean the house
    feed my spawns

    some times take them hiking to a nearby trail specially now that they are on summer vacation or let them chill while I get on the treadmill and work my butt off until one of them needs me. (Usually happens every 10 mins)

    So im basically on the treadmill in 10 minute intervals. So frustrating some days. Some times I just give up and drink.

    I am gathering from these responses that I definitely need to acquire some new hobbies. I live in the desert and it supposed to be near 120 on Monday so anything I can do inside helps. I too want to be a reformed couch potato @healthykaitlin

    Also live in the desert (phoenix) but heck still have to go out for live music and dancing and work up a sweat on Friday and Saturday. Though I am pretty much a couch potato the rest of the week. Definitely no running and such outside this time of year.

    I have no life whatsoever so that's when I get my long walks in. It also gets me out of the apartment since I've been known to be doing a walking dvd and walk myself to the beat of the music right into the kitchen and thrust my hand right into a box of cereal or bag of mini marshmallows. :)

    Typically get home around 8 most nights. I shower, eat, foam roll, stretch, do general mobility work with the tube on, prepare lunch for the next day then it's off to bed. Usually by 11 cause I gotta wake up way too goddamn early. Adulting sucks.

    Grab the kiddos, head home, start dinner immediately after walking through the door....,eat, do dishes, clean up after everyone, start some laundry/pick up around the house, get the kids ready for bed, THEN I get to work out in my basement. I'm usually in bed around 10.

    Depends on the day. Sometimes I have to go back into work in the evenings. Most of the Time I spend time with my daughter put her to bed, and then do my school work..

    Depends on the day really. It may be the gym, it may be ironing the laundry at home or going out with a friend to the movies or for dinner. When it is stay in there are couch potato watch TV days, but usually they are combined with knitting and or sewing or reading.

    My usual schedule for work is in the evening time, I don't get off until after 9. I don't have any drinking buddies so I can't hit the bars, so I just come home and go to bed. Sad existence.
