| Helpful Healthy Tips |
|
| |
 |
|
When you're bored, you overeat. So keep distractions on hand, such as puzzle books, a good trashy novel, or a fun app you can play on your phone. |
|
 |
|
You're more likely to stick with exercise if you have someone to encourage you and keep you from blowing it off. Team up with a neighbor or coworker you can exercise with, or a long-distance friend or relative you can call while you walk. |
|
 |
|
Keeping a food diary is an important way to track what you eat. But be sure to track your accomplishments too, like recording steps from your pedometer or minutes of exercise (walking counts!) each day. They add up to impressive numbers! |

"Here's a side dish I love to make when I'm watching what I eat—sauté thinly sliced cabbage, onion and carrot (I slice the carrot with a peeler) in a very small amount of oil and add salt and pepper to taste." —wickerchair, Comfort Food Diet forum |
