If you're living on the East Coast and dealing with the remnants of Sandy and the nor'-easter that just blew up and dumped tons of snow on you guys, surviving is more important to you right now than losing weight, I'm sure.
This is a post about being prepared for disasters. Obviously for being flooded out of your home there's little you can do. If you live in a flood plain I suppose all you can do is have very heavy-duty plastic bags handy, identify your treasures, and stick the one in the other before you evacuate. If you're home isn't washed away but rather just filled with mud, this would perhaps keep your treasures safe.
But if you live in an area which just gets tons of snow such that you can lose power, remember to have an emergency kit - or two or three! - handy. Extra blankets, food stored in water proof containers (and not too salty food if you don't have access to fresh water) and so on. And of course if you've got pets, set some extra stuff aside for them as well.
Remember there's nothing more important than your life - so if it's raining cats and dogs outside, let your pet tinkle indoors for once. Don't go out when there's a chance you could get hit by a falling tree limb - most of the people who died during Sandy died in just that way.
