Lets start a Fall weight
loss program!
There is no better season than Autumn to settle into a healthy routine of diet and exercise. Outdoor workouts are beautiful and seasonal foods are both healthy and delicious. Start today and you'll be svelte and trim in time for holiday parties!
Breakfast
gets a lot of attention as the most important meal of the day, but
for many of us, lunch is the deal breaker when it comes to weight
loss. Whether you are preparing the meal for your kids, your spouse
or for yourself, there are some easy ways to make lunch healthy and
satisfying.
Healthy Lunch Swaps
- Instead of soda or a juice box, pack a water bottle with a few pieces of frozen fruit. At lunchtime, fill the bottle with water and enjoy a lightly-flavored drink.
- Instead of a sugary granola snack bar, pack a handful of almonds and half of an apple, sliced.
- Instead of a sandwich, pack lean meat roll-ups. Roll slices of your favorite low fat deli meat around a thin slice of cheese and veggie slivers (carrots, cucumber, sprouts work well) . Slice them like sushi to make them more fun to eat.
- Instead of chips or salty crackers, pack a hard boiled egg and hummus. When it's time to eat, dump the yolk and fill the center with hummus.
- Instead of a grilled cheese sandwich make chicken sliders.
