About Healthy Eating

Here are some tips to maintaining a healthy diet:

Control your portion size.
Stop eating when you are full
Over half of your plate should filled with fruits and vegetables
Protein is important to building and maintaining muscles. Just keep it lean - chicken, fish, turkey, beans and tofu.
Drink lots of water - It can curb your appetite
Eat plenty of whole grains
Avoid processed foods
Eat a little something every couple of hours. A piece of fruit now might keep you away from that candy later.
Avoid fried foods
Avoid sugary soda drinks
Avoid sweetened iced tea - it usually has just as much sugar as soda. Plus it's delicious without the sugar too!
