When the Choices Get Tough!

Whether your Easter weekend is dedicated to the Lamb or the chocolate bunny, one thing is likely to bind us all together: candy. In honor of the Easter Basket tradition, the following list will equip you with tools to make healthy choices through out the weekend.

Just make sure to balance it out with the rest of your day (green bean casserole, dinner rolls, roasted lamb or hamb, etc), and work out hard for the rest of the week if you need to. Happy Easter!
