It almost sounds too good to be true. But researchers in the UK recently discovered that taking a long, hot bath can burn as many calories as a 30 minute walk!

I love a good walk, and I love a good bath. Imagine the pounds that will fall off if I do both every day! Okay, that might not be realistic, but it sure sounds good as I'm writing this.

Happy bathing. Rubber duckies optional.
