Cleaning House

To get a good strong start, here are some good pointers/suggestions you can do.

1. Clean out your cabinets/fridge.
Gets rid of all "junk" food in the house. If it isn't there, you won't eat it. If you don't know what to do with it, maybe think of a family who would appreciate it or a food bank.

2. Get yourself a snack stash.
Designate a spot in the fridge and maybe on the counter for health, pre-prepped snacks. Some good ideas are snack baggies or containers of carrot sticks, celery sticks, grapes, orange smiles, pretzels, crackers, etc. Make sure that if you do crackers or pretzels that you measure out one serving in each bag. Your own version of 100-calorie packs for much cheaper. These are also good things to grab when running out the door or keep in the car or purse for a quick fix later versus eating junk.

3. Turn the tv/computer off.
See how much more you get done and how much more active you become without the tv or computer on. Take a walk with the dog, tidy the house, walk to visit a friend. It's much better for your health socially and physically.

Let me know if you want tips on a specific subject.
