Tips & Tricks: Small Changes Can Add Up to Big Wins
Set a goal. A good goal is to be active at least 30 minutes a day.
Get off the bus one stop earlier and walk the rest of the way.
Take the stairs instead of the elevator.
Jumping rope and doing push-ups are great calorie burners and help build muscle.
Walk at least 30 minutes a day.
Eat three servings of fruit and three servings of vegetables every day. Try making a veggie or fruit smoothie. Not only is this good for you, smoothies are delicious, too.
Bake your food instead of frying.
Eat smaller portions. You can save a lot of calories by reducing how much you eat, especially when it comes to carbs (pasta, bread, rice).
Limit fast food and processed food – like store-bought frozen food.
Choose chicken or fish instead of beef.
Avoid sugary drinks, like soda. Drink a lot of water.
