Let's walk, the good weather is here.

And I now this is a time of the year that for me translates to BBQ , proms, weddings, picnics, graduation and I could keep naming more and with it all the food that we associate with this events. On the flip side it also means the dreading bathing suit season is here!!! How can we manage both when they are so dramatically opposed to each other? Well, here are some tips I use and have helped me:

1) Make a large green salad for the BBQ or picnic. We made this last weekend 3 different from the "Hit the Spot" and "Now & Later" cookbooks that were delicious. Try new recipes.

2) Have grilled chicken instead.

3) Use low or fat free ingredients to make your favorite salads.

4) Since you are already outside take a walk, play a game and burn some of those extra calories that you treated yourself to.

5) Remember always to have fun!
