Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day if not the most important. A good breakfast should have whole grain, dairy, protein, fruit, and water.

The fact remains that if you don’t exercise, you’re not going to have a healthy body. You won’t burn enough calories, your metabolism will get out of whack, and your muscles will weaken.

The only bad workout is the one you never do.  Don’t skip your workout or daily exercise.

No matter what kind of activity you’re doing,  you will need at least 3 things: 1. A good pair of sneakers 2. A large supply of water 3. Comfortable clothes NEVER start a workout without the right shoes and away to stay hydrated.  Make sure you are drinking water before, during and after your exercise activity.  

Exercise is a combination of two factors: 1. Intensity 2. Time.

One teaspoon of salt puts you at the maximum recommended daily sodium intake. One way to reduce your salt is to put the salt shakers away.

Do you walk the recommended 10,000 steps a day? If not, you need to start walking, walking, walking…

Simple calorie slash: take three, 15-minute brisk walks Going for three, 15-minute brisk walks a day is enough to burn up 250 calories without breaking a major sweat. A brief power walk to pick up your morning latte, during your lunch break and after dinner is a great way to boost your calorie burn, and if you tread outdoors, it may even help to boost your mood too. One 2011 study published in the journal Environmental Science and Technology found that people who exercised outdoors reported increased energy and decreased feelings of depression, so get some fresh air and go an extra mile – your body will thank you.

LUNCH SNACK **A lettuce wrap. Put either Tofu, Turkey, or cut up pieces of Chicken breast with tomatoes, and cheese wrapped up inside a large piece of lettuce. No bread use the lettuce as the bread.

MORNING SNACK 1 Cup Cantaloupe Melon

If you love your morning bagel from the coffee shop, try this simple improvement: Cut your bagel in half, and swap high fat cream cheese for a protein-rich topping like peanut butter or a scrambled egg, recommends Batayneh. “Bagels are nothing more than 300 calories of refined carbs (most have as many carbohydrates as four slices of bread) which will send your blood sugar soaring.” By eliminating some of the carbohydrate and calorie count and balancing it with protein, you’ll not only shave off an extra 250 calories, but you’ll be more likely to stay full (and energized) till lunch. Share the other half of your bagel with a friend, or save it to have with your salad (in place of croutons) or with your soup (instead of a sandwich) at lunch.
