Is there a general rule of thumb of when to exercise or not in relationship to when you eat a meal. It seems like my chances to exercise always seem to be either right after breakfast or lunch when my two little ones are happy or asleep for a little while.

I have such trouble with a sweet tooth. I absolutely CRAVE chocolate and could eat it any time of day, but especially in the afternoon when my youngest has finally laid down for a nap (my 4 year old has given up naps) and I can sit down with coffee and immediately I want something sweet. Anyone else with a sweet tooth?…
