spreads.28. Cut high-calorie foods like cheese and chocolate
into small pieces and only eat a few pieces.29. Use fat-free or low-fat sour cream, mayo, sauc-
es, dressings, and other condiments.30. Replace sugar-sweetened beverages with water
and add a twist of lemon or lime.31. Every time you eat a meal, sit down, chew slow-

Moving More (ENERGY OUT)
1. Walk your children to school.2. Take a family walk after dinner.3. Join an exercise group and enroll your children
in community sports teams or lessons.4. Replace a Sunday drive with a Sunday walk.5. Do yard work. Get your children to help rake,
weed, plant, etc.6. Get off the bus a stop early and walk.7. Work around the house. Ask your children for
help doing active chores.8. Walk the dog to the park.9. Go for a half-hour walk instead of watching TV.10. Pace the sidelines at kids’ athletic games.11. Choose an activity that fits into your daily life.

22. Take the stairs instead of the escalator.23. Swim with your kids.24. Turn off the TV and play ball at the park.25. Take your dog on longer walks.26. When walking, go up the hills instead of around
them.27. Use a family activity planner to make time each
