Once again we have that 'is it going to snow' feeling in the air with possible disruption ahead!
It seems almost every year, when everyone wants to get back into a routine and start their exercise after Christmas.. we get hit by a bout of bad weather and everything goes t**s up!It's so annoying when you have your day planned in your head but by lunch time you're not sure if that workout kit, pair of trainers and bottle of water will see the light of day after all. Or, school is closed and your morning class is impossible to get to because your children are home.
So, your class is canceled and you have to go home - use the time wisely, stop at the supermarket and pick up some health food (fresh veg and meat or fish) and make a super healthy meal instead of consoling yourself with a bottle of wine and a box of chocolates.
If you have fresh food in the fridge, use it up... make a stir fry or casserole. Prepare a health lunch for the next day at work (or for your sledging trip if you can't get to work).
When you get home, before you get inside, take your coat off and warm up... go out for a brisk walk (as long as it's safe and not too slippery!) It will clear your mind from the day and you won't feel like you've missed out on exercise quite so much.
Whatever you decide to do, keep safe and keep warm.
A Gorgeous clean and very filling Faux Beef Lasagne
