Healthy Eating Habits

Eating healthy isn't as hard as it seems. Snacks are the most common source of high calorie eating. Try substituting your sweet afternoon snack for a more natural source of energy like vegetable sticks or a piece of fruit. Try a SunkistŪ orange or tangerine for a healthier snack alternative. If you need recipe ideas to help with the transition to a healthier diet, see our Healthy Living Recipe section for some delicious low fat, high taste meals.

Feeling Sluggish

Do you feel tired when you try to work out? Try this homemade energy drink you are sure to love! In a small pot, bring one cup of honey and three cups of water to a slow simmer. When about a third of the water has evaporated, remove from heat and add the juice of two Sunkist lemons. Pour the liquid into a dark container with a paper towel covering the opening, allowing the mixture to breathe and cool. Once cooled, drink it slowly and enjoy. You'll soon feel as good as it tastes!

Need Motivation

Having trouble getting to the gym? The best method for staying motivated is to focus on your own personal reasons for getting into shape. Make a list of all of your reasons to get in shape. When you feel like giving up, read the list to help kick your motivation back into gear. If possible, recruit a friend to exercise with you so you can encourage each other.

Maintenance

Many people are hesitant to get into shape and eat right because they don't want to stay on an intense regimen forever. Working out regularly and eating healthier is a commitment -- but it doesn't have to be a burden! Once you have reached your health and fitness goals, maintenance is easy. Make sure to pick activities that you enjoy and nutritious foods that taste good. Try to keep up a consistent workout plan and stick to healthier eating habits and you'll have no problem supporting your new healthy lifestyle. Most importantly, recruit the support of friends and family. Encouragement is key!
