1. Trick yourself into exercising. It can be hard to find the time to exercise throughout the day – so try sneaking it in! Opt for the stairs instead of the escalator or elevator. Exit the bus one stop early and walk. Park farther from your destination. Maintain your yard. Take the dog on walks with the whole family. Walk up and down the field while your children are playing sports. 2. Maintain a healthy diet. Maintaining a healthy diet doesn’t mean you aren’t allowed to spoil yourself with treats every now and then. Nutrition is all about balance – so just make sure you balance those treats with some healthier choices. This includes: • Snack smart. Instead of those pretzels, grab some peanuts. Snacking keeps you at your best so that you can sustain your energy and stay positive. • Avoid “meal skips.” Eating consistently provides your mind and body with the fuel necessary to help you get and stay active. It also helps you avoid your blood sugar dropping. • Implement Uncle Sam’s recipe for health. “What is this?” you may ask – it is essentially the following: lots of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fat-free or low-fat dairy products; some lean meats or meat substitutes, including beans, eggs and nuts; andminimal saturated fats, trans fats, cholesterol, salt, and added sugars. 3. Stay positive. If you go in with a positive mindset, exercise and eating right will become significantly easier. Research shows that a positive attitude can boost your immune system and increase your energy levels. Even if you aren’t really excited about getting up to go for a run, your body will believe what you think. 4. Ask for help!
