Temptations and Solutions

So now that it’s summer (for a college student anyways) I spent the day desperately looking for a job and/or internship. Just sitting around the house and having nothing to do leaves me with plenty of time to be tempted by my fully stocked kitchen. The cookies, wings and tastycakes that my family loves keep crying at me to eat them, and its getting so hard to ignore their delicious tears. Thankfully though I’ve been staying on course, taking a breath and grabbing a glass of water instead and making sure I at least get out of the house for my workout. Hanging out with friends is also a good distraction until I get a job. This fitness stuff ain’t easy people.
