BABY STEPS

Do you have a hard time eating right? Take baby steps and you will be amazed how easy it is. Start with something as simple as choosing healthy foods more often than unhealthy ones. Each time you succeed it will give you confidence to do it again.

A few simple examples are to have a sugar-free cookie rather than a regular one. Or when baking, substitute a small amount of whole-wheat flour for an equal amount of the called for all-purpose. If fresh vegetables aren't available to you, choose frozen over canned. Choose fresh fruit over baking them into a pie. Once you get used to the small changes, you will find yourself going with the healthy choice.
