Don't wait until the weekend to clean your home. Spend time each day tidying up. Dust, do laundry, vacuum, and wash windows. These efforts often give you as much exercise as a formal exercise class.

Workout during TV time. Don't just sit there. Stand up next to your sofa and walk during commercials. Work up to walking through an entire show. Don't forget to stretch.

Exercise your calf muscles while brushing your teeth. Place your feet flat on the floor, and rise onto the balls of your feet, hold for two seconds and sink back down.

Identify your emotional triggers. Culturally defined food choices are not always the healthiest and can contribute to the Vicious Cycle. Embrace and try to understand what is behind unconscious eating habits and your lack of movement.
