The weather and food choices

I find that when the weather is gloomy as it has been for the past few weeks I have to work harder at making good decisions concerning what I eat and my exercise routine. I find myself craving more comfort foods such as pasta and pizza and I also find it more difficult to keep up my exercise routine. I work through these days by allowing myself a little more high calorie foods and cutting my exercise to 2-3 days/week rather than 3-4 days as usual. Managing a healthy weight is a balancing act even when it comes to the weather.
