Improving your Health in the New Year!

Everyone wants to improve their health in the new year. If you can change one habit each week, it doesn't seem as overwhelming. Set a goal for losing one pound per week by reducing 500 calories from your diet each day. Distribute the reduction in calories per day by taking 100 calories off each meal and each snack daily.  For example, take off a large portion of the mayonnaise from your sandwich, remove the bread crust, and only use 1/2 a slice of cheese. By doing this, you have easily removed at least 100 calories from your daily intake!  For coffee drinkers, simply reducing the amount of sugar and cream helps tremendously.  

Tips like these may be just what you need to motivate yourself to make changes in your diet and overall health this year.  Tune into WRSW Mondays & Wednesdays at 8:30am to hear more tips from Kelly on improving your health for 2015!
