Start your day with a full breakfast and a nibble!

Welcome to The Daily Nibble!

If you're reading this blog and today's your first day of being more active and eating healthier, congratulations! Learning more about health and fitness is a great first step.

When you're trying to get fit, it helps to have some motivation. Lemme let you in a little secret; it's better if you have a partner. Knowing that you’ll be letting someone else down means you’re more likely to stick to your diet or workout.

Also, you can motivate each other. There will be days when you feel like eating five slices of pizza or a whole pint of Ben and Jerry's Chunky Monkey. There will be days when you don’t feel like working out 'cause you're too tired or maybe you wanna wait by the phone because he hasn't called yet. On days like these, trust me, you'd want someone to hide your stash of Doritos and drag you the gym. Hopefully, you and your partner's "off’ days" won't happen at the same time, so that you can persuade each other to do a quick stroll outside or jumping jacks during commercial breaks of your favorite TV show.

Eating healthy and working out is simply more fun when you do it with someone. It goes without saying that eating out and discovering the yummiest, low-cal fish taco in the city is best enjoyed with a friend. Meanwhile, some people find exercise boring, so having someone to talk to or even just to be there with you (if you prefer to listen to your iPod) while exercising is a great bonus.

I hope you can start each day or week by dropping by The Daily Nibble for your daily dose of health and fitness news, information, and what not. Share your comments and let's be workout buddies/partners!
