Make sure to eat a healthy, balanced breakfast every morning. This jump-starts your metabolism and gives you energy throughout the day.
Look at your calendar at the beginning of each week and find a time each day to exercise or do something active. Write it on your calendar and plan to keep the appointment. Making your health as big a priority as other "must-do's" in your day keeps you accountable and consistent.
One of the most vital tips to a healthy life is to get 7-8 hours of good quality sleep a night. Sleep helps your body combat stress and repairs your immune system. It can even help you lose weight!
Try to get a healthy protein, fat and carbohydrate at every meal (and snacks if you can). This will keep you satisfied longer, assure you are getting a variety of nutrients and keep cravings for unhealthy foods at bay.
Try to choose fresh, unprocessed foods and eat organic when possible. Look for simple, recognizable ingredients. A good rule of thumb, if you don't recognize the ingredient, chances are your body can't either. Stick to this tip and your diet will be composed of fresh, whole foods with no added preservatives or unhealthy fats.
