Helpful Healthy Tips
 
Help keep portions in check by using smaller plates and bowls. Swap your dinner plate for a salad plate and use oversized mugs for ice cream, soup and cereal.
Try a new activity through your local parks and recreation department this summer. Classes are usually entry-level, low-commitment and economical. You may find a new hobby!
Keeping a food diary doesn’t have to be formal or time consuming. It can be as simple as jotting on sticky notes, scratch paper or sending an email to yourself.
“When short on time, shape meatloaf into patties and grill – same great taste in much less time (and the grease drains off)!” – tkuehl, Comfort Food Diet forum
