As a partner of the Together Counts\u2122 program for active, healthy living we believe that setting goals aren\u2019t just for the New Year. Leave the past behind you, and think about what you want and how you can accomplish it. Here are five goals that could be on everyone\u2019s list!<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">1. Enjoy your food, but eat less<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m on a diet,\u201d \u201cI was bad this weekend,\u201d \u201cI\u2019m avoiding XYZ.\u201d Those are the most common words that I hear from many folks, especially each January. What most people don\u2019t realize is that you don\u2019t need to torture yourself! Yes, food should nourish our bodies, but it should be enjoyable and tasty at all times as well! To get started on your goals, you may not need to change any of the foods that you are currently eating but cut your portions in half.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HOW:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Eat from smaller plates and bowls.<\/li>\n<li>Always ask for a to-go container at a restaurant.<\/li>\n<li>Slow down! Put the fork down after each bite.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">2. More matters<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No matter who you are or what you eat, there is always room for more fruits and vegetables! I won\u2019t even discuss why you need them, because we all know, but we still don\u2019t do it. So, set a goal that at each meal and at each snack, at least half of your plate will be filled with these nutrient powerhouses.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HOW:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Add fresh salsa to your morning omelet.<\/li>\n<li>Whip up a fruit smoothie for a snack.<\/li>\n<li>Include all forms (fresh, frozen, canned, dried and 100% juice) to make adding fruits and vegetables convenient, affordable and fun!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">3. Move more<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Try to do a 5 a.m. boot camp class at least five days a week \u2026 just kidding! If exercise and sweat are two of your least favorite words, that\u2019s OK! You don\u2019t need to have a gym membership or wake up at the crack of dawn to run 5 miles to be active. Just move more! In a 24-hour period, think of how many hours you are sitting (or sleeping). If you have a sedentary job, that can be significant. Each and every day, think of ways to move more. Once you create a habit, it will become second nature!<\/p>\n<p><strong>HOW:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Set an alarm every hour to get up and move.<\/li>\n<li>Wear a pedometer and challenge yourself to get a minimum of 10,000 steps daily.<\/li>\n<li>Walk in place during television commercials or even better, through an entire 30-minute program.<\/li>\n<li>Put extra physical activities on your calendar! That\u2019s the best way to stick to them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">4. Cut down on screen time<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To help manage your body weight, reduce the amount of time you spend being sedentary. This includes time spent in front of a screen \u2013 including watching television, playing video games and using the computer. People who spend more time being sedentary, particularly watching television, are more likely to be overweight or obese. Most people can\u2019t change how much time they spend on the computer for work or school, but you can decrease your screen time during other times of the day and on the weekend.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HOW:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Log the number of hours you spend in a week (outside of work and school) watching television, playing video games or using the computer.<\/li>\n<li>Develop a daily screen time budget.<\/li>\n<li>Limit eating while watching television. Many people overeat because they are not paying attention to how much food they are ingesting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">5. Catch some zzz\u2019s<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not just the quantity of sleep that affects our health, it\u2019s also the quality! If you are not getting around eight hours of quality sleep, it can have a negative impact on your life. Although you might not be able to control all of the factors that encourage healthful sleeping habits, you can adopt habits to sleep better!<\/p>\n<p><strong>HOW:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Stick to a sleep schedule.<\/li>\n<li>Create a relaxing bedtime ritual.<\/li>\n<li>Limit distractions and disturbances in the bedroom.<\/li>\n<li>Have an active day so that you are actually tired at night.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Meredith McGrath RD, LDN is the Corporate Dietitian at Redner\u2019s Warehouse Markets.
