What a difference even a couple of weeks makes in the changeover from winter to spring. Two weeks ago we were getting snow on the ground. Now it's sunny and gorgeous. Still a little cool (ie jacket weather) but really nice to walk in. Unlike in February when taking the dog for a walk was a chore, now it's something to go out and enjoy. Traditionally everyone starts their diets in January as part of a New Year's Resolution, but I can't see how that works well for most people. You end up having to force yourself out into the cold, often with snow or ice on the ground. Even with a gym, it still becomes a hassle to exercise. Come the spring though and all of a sudden it's actually pleasant to go out. Definitely recommend starting a plan now.
