When I really don't feel like exercising I pick up my phone, start up my treadmill and call a friend. Before I know it I have zoomed through my walk and caught up with my friend!

Always have a craft project available

Having a craft project available helps me curb my cravings for snacks when I am bored. It kills two birds with one stone - I get the craft project done (and quickly start another) and I keep from eating out of boredom!

Cleaning Mirrors

Did you know you can clean your mirrors with your favorite air freshener? Just spray and wipe. You kill two birds with one stone. Clean mirror and your room has a fresh scent.

Audio Books

Instead of music I listen to audio books while working out. There's lots of places to get them free like a library or librivox.org. For me, it's motivation to workout because I'll want to know what happens next in the story. It's killing two birds with one stone; reading and exercising.
