Hey everyone!
Sefirah is over! Phew. Anyways, I’m glad. So it’s Shavuous time. Well, was. CHEESECAKE!!!!!!! Yum. There’s just this little problem with cheesecakes, ice cream and chocolate. They’re fattening. And crazy tempting. But hey, you could definitely splurge. At least I did. Calories don’t count on Yom Tov. The key is not to go overboard.
So now you’ve got those extra pounds that somehow crept up. The solution is pretty simple. Try and guess. You’ve got it! It’s exercise time!
Personally, I don’t believe that in order for exercise to work, it must be an hour of never-ending torture. On the contrary, I believe that exercise is more effective when done with a smile. After all, smiling burns more calories:) And when you’re happy to do it, you’re more likely to do more. Whatever you put into it is what you’ll get out of it. So try and exercise in a way that works for you. It doesn’t matter how or what – as long as you break out into a sweat. Here are some ideas. If you’ve got some of your own suggestions, you can always comment. That’s what the bottom section was made for. :)
Great post, Tonni! :)
Now that you’ve done all that exercise, go and drink a giant cup of water, everyone! I know, I know, everyone says that, but there’s a reason they say it! :D
I had so much cheesecake on the first night of Yom Tov, and more at kiddush, that I actually turned down dessert AND ice cream in a waffle cone! I’m trying to get back into shape now!
I didn’t have any cheesecake, chocolate, or ice cream since I’m lactose intolerant. oh well :)
