Here in Michigan almost everyone looks forward to spring. We’ve had beautiful weather this past week. Its been snowing a little today which is hard to go back to after spending most of last week in the 60’s! Still, I know spring is just around the corner. Ryan & I are looking forward to spring for many reasons, in part thanks to Nutrisystem!

5 Reasons we are looking forward to spring:

Spring park

  1. Spending more time outside. It’s more fun to be active outside through play and that’s much easier to do when it’s nice out. This week I went to the park!
  2. Fresh fruits and veggies. Nothing beats fresh fruits and veggies. We buy throughout the winter too, but they taste better (and are more affordable) in the summer.
  3. Gardening. We prepped for a garden last spring and then my plans got turned upside down by a last minute trip. This year we are determine to do a vegetable garden for the first time. I am so excited!
  4. Swimming. Before his weight loss, Ryan would avoid the beach because of being uncomfortable with his appearance. I’ve always enjoyed the beach so it made me sad that I couldn’t enjoy it with him. Now he goes again!
  5. Summer clothes. Pre-weight loss, summer clothing was always dreaded. Ryan isn’t very interested in clothing or fashion, so I don’t know that he specifically looks forward to wearing warm weather clothing. However, it’s always a nice reminder that he isn’t uncomfortable with it anymore. In fact, he isn’t any more uncomfortable in summer clothing than he is in winter clothing which is really neat.

    Life just seems better when Spring gets here. It seems better when you are in shape to get out and enjoy it too. I am glad the two of you will enjoy Spring and Summer more this year.

    He looks great! Summer I have more energy and want to get out and be more active! I love going to farmer’s market and picking my own fruit at local farms so we eat more fresh fruits and veggies!
