Yes, you read that right. The key to improving your health might just be to focus on healthy behaviours like moving more and eating more fruit and vegies. “One of the best ways to lose weight and maintain that weight loss is to make lasting lifestyle habits that you can keep up for the long run,” says plant-based registered dietitian Amy Gorin. “This is typically easiest to put into place by initiating many small changes, such as adding exercise to your day, even in small doses, swapping high-calorie desserts for fruit, and being more mindful while you eat.”

In other words, think about what changes you can make that you can sustain. Consider what you enjoy in terms of exercise and make a list of healthy foods you actually find tasty. Then try to make those things a more prominent part of your life.
