Fit Links: Sensible vices
As fabulous as we at That's Fit think this blog is, the truth is there are hundreds of wonderful blogs on healthy living to be seen all over the blogosphere. So in this feature, Fit Links, we'll introduce you to some that have caught our eye.
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy ... isn't that the way the saying goes? It's true, too, even when it comes to health and fitness. Dedicating time every single day to fitness and taking measure of every morsel that goes in your mouth can go a long way toward improving your health and fitness, but let's face it -- is life much fun without our favorite vices?

The trick is moderation of course -- a treat is not a treat unless it only happens occasionally. But a vice can also be sensible. Over at Mark's Daily Apple, he shares his own idea of sensible vices in two different posts, the original and the sequel. Food Vancouver talks about why red wine is another sensible vice. And the folks over at HealthCentral show us that simple pleasures can also be good for you.
Unfortunately, many of my vices (peanut butter cup ice cream) do not fall in the sensible category. What's your biggest vice? Is it a sensible one?

Thanks for the links! Can't say that I've seen peanut butter cup ice cream, but I could see how tempting a combo that is.

My vice is an early morning white chocolate latte with whipped cream.....i can't resist!! I only have them during the week...although i eat sensible all day afterwards to balance myself out! Its just too hard to give up....but i have switched to drinking a small instead of a large. :D
