Sticking With Your New
Years Resolution

It’s that time of year
when you’ve made all your New Years
resolutions. If you’re like me,
inevitably one of those resolutions is
to lose weight. If you’re actually going
to lose weight and keep it off, you
should make small, gradual, realistic
changes that will build upon one
another, creating a healthier future.
Start today by reviewing these
strategies to help you control your
weight:
- You should think
“choose well” not “diet.”
Instead of trying to starve yourself,
choose foods that allow you to fill up
on fewer calories. These are foods
that are: minimally processed; high in
fiber; and, low in fat and sugar.
Examples include fruits; vegetables;
cooked whole grains such as barley,
oatmeal, whole-wheat products and
brown rice; and legumes. For protein,
always pick leaner choices such as
white breast meat of poultry (without
skin); pork loin; lean beef; legumes;
and seafood. Prepare these items with
little added fat.
- Try to make
exercise fun.
- Take up several
aerobic activities that are
enjoyable, such as an aerobic class,
walking, bike riding, swimming,
running, hiking, softball, etc.
- Work out
aerobically at least an hour a day,
five or six days a week.
- Only eat when
you’re hungry
Avoid eating to relax, cure boredom or
overcome depression. Instead, talk a
walk or call a friend.
- Snack for better
health.
- Snack only when
hungry.
- Instead of
packaged snacks, think “out with the
bag” and enjoy fresh fruits,
vegetables with low-fat dips or
fat-free light yogurt. baked
potatoes, sweet potatoes and oatmeal
also make great snacks.
- Be a little
adventurous.
- Be adventurous
and expand your range of healthful
food choices.
- Buy a low-fat
cookbook to help you modify
traditional high-fat favorites, and
to introduce quick healthful dishes.
