If you are walking up a very tall building don’t do it all at once. Set goals for yourself. Try for 10 flights the first week and move up from there.
Guidelines
All family members should be effective role models by participating in all of the guidelines below:
- Serve fruits and vegetables at every snack and meal. Offer fresh fruit and vegetable options daily.
- Make water the primary drink option every day. Other options should be non-sugar-sweetened.
- Include a whole-grain or protein option with every snack.
- Provide healthy, unsaturated-fat foods at meals and snacks.
- Emphasize moderation, balance and variety.
Judge new, rarely- or never-before-tasted foods (fruits, vegetables, healthy recipes, other healthy foods) by choosing 3 similar types of food and have family members rank them 1 for the best, 2 for good, and 3 for not as good. Count up all of the points for each food. The food with the most points is now the new “Food Idol” in your home for the week.
For fun ask “where's dinner” meaning where shall we eat tonight?
