Nutrition Tip of the Day
Use a Salad Plate
Did you know that the average dinner plate 40 years ago was almost 50% smaller than it is today? When I read that statistic a few years ago, my husband and I started using salad plates to serve dinner on. It's great because the portions are smaller, but they look huge in proportion to the plate!
Exercise Tip of the Day
Set up Exercise Dates
Instead of doing the normal coffee date with friends, why not try a walking date? Grab your favorite coffee or iced tea (you know there has to be a Starbucks near a park!) and then take a few laps around the park! There are all kinds of fun "physical activity dates" that you can plan with family and friends. Have fun and think "outside" the box (LOL...no pun intended :)

We still use the large dinner plates but I try to fill up over half the plate in veggies and serve meat more as a side dish.
ReplyDeleteI love the exercise dates! We should do one sometime :) (The Starbucks at Friant & Ft. Washington is perfect because you can walk from there straight into Woodward Park)
That is exactly what Seth and I do (we love walking to Woodward)!! We should defenitely do it soon!
