New Year’s Resolution #3: Eating Healthy
Eating healthy doesn’t have to be super complicated. Making just small shifts in our food choices, can add up over time. When it comes to lasting weight loss, it is more effective to make small and consistent changes rather than trying to change years of unhealthy habits overnight. The key is that the changes are practical and sustainable so that you can permanently adopt them into your everyday life. Look at the following list and determine a few that you could adopt this month. And then next month pick a few more.
