Last week, we talked about other people's resolutions & how to set yourself up for success. Here's a list of ideas that will give you "the most bang for your buck". Using the SMART method, personalize whichever healthy behaviors interest you to meet your goals. For background info, search our blog or stay tuned!
Eating Healthier
- Eat an extra serving of fruits & veggies.
- Pack lunch or cook dinner at home more often.
- Drink more water &/or less sugary beverages.
- Use less salt &/or more spices.
- Eat slower & pay more attention to your food.
- Replace less healthy fats with healthier fats.
Be More Active
- Try a new class or activity. Or, sign up for a race.
- Invite a friend or family member to be active with you.
- Add more time or intensity to your workout.
- Sit less often. Try a walking meeting or walking at lunch.
Work towards controlling your stress level.
Aim for better quality or quantity sleep (or both!).
Quit (or, at least reduce) tobacco use.
Take medications as prescribed & get recommended screenings. (BTW, it's not to late for flu or pneumonia shots. Although this year's flu immunization isn't as effective, it still offers some protection.)
