All families can benefit from making these healthy changes around the house:
1)
Switch to nonfat milk and light cheese
2)
Get rid of snack foods like pretzels, chips,
crackers
3)
Make fresh fruit available (washed grapes on the counter works wonders!)
4) Set our washed, peeled and cut vegetables BEFORE dinner
5)
Cook your favorite meals with less oil and butter. Consider
using an oil spray.
6) Pack a healthy lunch (see my previous blog post for lunch ideas)
7) Avoid having treats and sodas in the
house - instead set aside 1 or 2 nights a week as special dessert night and go out for a scoop of ice cream.
8) Have fruit for dessert - every night!
9) Get some exercise – together. Do an evening walk
right after dinner 3x a week.
