Fresh Ideas

Eating smart and moving more is easy with these fresh ideas you can include everyday!

Snack at the salad bar
A quick trip around a well-stocked salad bar can offer much more than a salad. Fill a container with sliced fruit like watermelon, honeydew or cantaloupe. Refresh your vegetable selection with broccoli and cauliflower florets, along with low-fat dressing for dripping.

Choice
Change is all about making choices. It is making the choice to do one thing (like taking a walk) rather than another (like watching TV). It doesn't mean that you have to give up all television programs. It just means that sometimes you make the choice to be more active.

Forgive and congratulate yourself
If you miss a day of activity, it's no big deal. Just put on your shoes and get your walk in today! The goal is at least 2 ½ hours of activity each week. Getting active and fit can be challenging. Just think how long you've been sitting around. Give yourself a big pat on the back for any increases in physical activity.
