" Summer's ending, so guess what? It's time to pump it up. A walk to the ice-cream shop and back doesn't exactly count as "exercise," but every little bit does add up. The point is, you can do better! Just because you're tired and it's warm doesn't mean you can lie on the couch all day cougar-style. Get moving, girl!

I’m the first to admit that it gets hard to stay on routine during the winter. It’s cold and wet outside, you need to bundle up before doing anything, and everything seems like such a chore. Personally, my urge to hibernate and avoid the outside at all costs goes way up when it’s cold. That can wreak havoc on anyone’s routine if you’re not prepared.
