Some Advice on Improving Your Eating Habits: Make Small Changes Over Time
|
Make small changes over time and you can develop long-lasting eating and exercise habits during National Nutrition Month, which is March — and you could lose some weight and be healthier before summer. “We live in a society that wants everything now,” said Marcia Pessolano, a registered dietitian nutritionist at the Connecticut Department of Public Health. “The truth is, nutrition is no different than anything else. If you want to live a long and healthy life, you have to work at it each day and practice healthy habits.”
Research shows that if you focus on one habit at a time for 2 to 4 weeks you are more likely to be successful. Slow and steady wins the race.
