Lose Weight While You Shop

If you are reading this and are like my friends and I and LOVE to shop, here are some ways to shred off those pounds while shopping...
  • Walk up the escalator instead of just standing there. Especially if it is empty, you have no excuse not to walk. 
  • Keep an eye out for heavy items. If you buy heavy items- you work out your arms while carrying them around the mall and to your car when the day is over. 
  • Make a trip to your car after a few purchases. This gets you walking outside while carrying bags and bags of clothing which I am sure weighs a ton. 
  • Be wear of the food-court! Pack a lunch or even a snack. Bring some almonds along for your shopping trip especially if it is more than 3 hours because you should be eating every 3 hours. 
  • Drink lots of water while shopping! 
  • Bring a buddy along to enjoy a fun walk around the mall while you shop and enjoy each other's company. 
HAPPY SHOPPING AND WEIGHT LOSS!
