Is Your House Ready for Your Weight Management Program?

It’s often the little things that pose the greatest barriers to weight loss. Here’s some tips to help you through:

• Before you start, go through all your cupboards and refrigerator and get rid of all the junk food and snacks that you know are unhealthy and may tempt you.
• If you have a family, ask them to hide them from you.
• Stock your refrigerator and cupboard with things that are healthy and low in fat and in sugars
• Have a plan already made for snack attacks: ie cut up veggies with a herb low fat dip, fruit, lowfat yogurt, unsweetened applesauce or fruit puree
• In restaurants keep your eye open for healthy alternatives, many menus will show you healthy or Heart Smart choices
• Reward yourself with a non-food prize when you successfully made it through a high calorie event.
