Wellness Tip of the Week:

Maintain a Good Diet: Follow these tips to help keep your diet healthy and beneficial.

1. Learn proper portion size. To avoid eating too much of even the healthiest foods, keep track of how much you're eating.
2. Vary your meals. Changing up your diet from day to day is an important part of good nutrition.
3. Eat breakfast. Start your day off right with a good meal when you get up.
4. Keep healthy snacks around.
5. Don't fight stress by eating. Eating won't help your stress go away, try working out or taking a break instead.
6. Drink water. Drinking enough water can help boost your concentration as well as keep you from overeating - bring water with you.
7. Limit sugary and caffeinated beverages. You don't have to completely give up soda and/or coffee, but you should scale back in order to keep yourself in tip top shape.
8. Try to eat fruits and veggies daily. Even if fruits and vegetables don't comprise some of your favorite foods, try to incorporate at least a few of them into your diet each day.
9. Limit junk food.
10. Make it convenient to eat right. Buy healthy foods and stock your fridge and room with them to ensure they're the first things at hand when you get hungry.
11. Don't skip meals. Set up healthy foods you can eat on the run so you'll have the energy to keep going.
12. Indulge every once in awhile. A little treat now and then is a great way to reward yourself for eating a healthy diet.
13. Take vitamins. If you feel like you aren't getting the nutrition you need from your diet, don't hesitate to supplement it with some multi-vitamins to stay healthy and illness free.
