Motivation Is The Gateway For Adopting Healthy Changes

*  Decide what changes YOU want to achieve, not what someone else wants you to do.

*  Remind yourself, daily, why you want to make a health change. Picture the change taking place.

*  Post reminders around the house.

*  List things you have achieved and are proud of. Use your successes to realize that you can accomplish any goal you set your mind to.

Dos

*  Choose salads with low-calorie dressing and limit portions when eating out.

*  Keep healthy snacks handy so the healthy choices are the easy choices.

*  Be patient. It takes up to 6 weeks to make a new habit.

Don’ts

*  Don’t supersize a fast food meal.

*  Don’t choose coffee beverages with syrup as a daily habit.

*  Don’t let slip-ups keep you from making permanent, healthy changes.
