Speaking from experience (lived in Alaska for over 20 years), I would suggest investing in an elliptical. A lot of people make the mistake of slacking on their cardio because lifting gets them to where they want to be physically. IMO you shouldn’t view cardio as exercise for your body, but as relief for your mind. Keep lifting and eating right, but make sure you get in some vigorous cardio (sweat and make yourself run out of breath). I would suggest doing your cardio in the morning before you start your day. When you get to the point where you’re feeling good about yourself, invest in some nice clothes and go show off a little! The attention might help distract you.

Totally agree on cardio. This is a must in any weather. Was just jogging this morning and got great ideas popped up in my mind all along.

5 miles flew by quick.
