Healthy Eating
Lose weight with mindful eating
Mindful eating is the best way to prevent overeating. How many calories do you consume without even realizing it? Mindful eating — especially during social situations — is an effective weight-loss strategy that encourages you to slow down and pay more attention to your food. It helps focus your senses on exploring, savoring and tasting, and teaches you to follow hunger cues. Put mindful eating into practice with these ideas as you prepare and eat meals. It gets easier over time!

Today's Weight-Loss Tip
Personalize your plan for success
Whether you're trying to eat better, exercise more or make another healthy change, no single plan works for everyone. That's why it's a must to make your plan your own. Take a day off from exercise, or enjoy one of your favorite foods once in a while. The more you make your program work for you, the less likely you are to rebel against it later on.
