Tip 5: Make Three Little Changes Every Day

Little changes can have a big bang.  Taking the stairs, walking or riding a bike instead of driving a car, and parking farther from our destination when we do drive may not seem like much individually.  Cumulatively, however, little changes make a big difference in the calories we burn, the fitness we build, and the health we enjoy.  In addition to walking or biking or taking the stairs, make three little changes each day to improve your health or lifestyle.  Eat half a serving of mashed potatoes instead of a whole; turn off the television and use that time for 30 extra minutes of sleep; mark off two errands on your daily “to-do” list that drain you; implement one of these 28 Tips each day. Make active healthy choices and confirm your dedication to being fit and healthy.
