Ways to Ease Back Into a Healthy Lifestyle

• Instead of eating an entire can of frosting, use the plastic lid to cover the container and save some for tomorrow.

• Use the stairs instead of attempting to parkour up empty elevator shaft.

• Don’t top your salad with half a can of Pringles.

• Instead of running a half-marathon, maybe just sign up to run a half-marathon.

• Remember, it’s “anything in moderation,” not “everything in moderation”.

• One way to make yourself drink more water is to try a bite of my cooking. Here, sample my rutabaga pudding. It’s indescribable!

• Believe in the power to accomplish your goals; people said that I couldn’t never not be able to get away with a triple negative in a blog post, but look at me now!

• Each day, write down everything you eat (or if you’re like me, save a little time by writing down everything you don’t eat).

• Walking a dog is more exercise than letting dog pull you around block on a skateboard, but c’mon… HAVE YOU TRIED LETTING DOG YOU AROUND BLOCK ON A SKATEBOARD? WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

• Remember what Winston Churchill always said… okay, you got me – I have no idea what Winston Churchill always said, but it was probably something like “eat a little less and exercise more and you’ll be well on your way to a healthy lifestyle.”
