Make One Change to Lose 10 Pounds In a Year

It takes about 3,500 extra calories to gain a pound. Break that into smaller bites and 100 extra

calories a day can put on about 10 pounds a year!

The good news is losing 10 pounds can be as easy as eating 100 calories less each day for a year.

The ideas below not only will help with weight loss, but make what you eat healthier for you!

1. Substitute a 12-ounce can of a diet soft drink at 1 calorie for a similar amount of a regular

soft drink at 150 calories. Or, drink a glass of cold water with a slice of lemon or lime

instead!

2. Instead of drinking 2 cups (16 ounces) of whole milk, switch to 2 cups of non-fat or 1 %

milk (300 vs. 200 calories for the skinnier milk).

3. Dress, don’t drown your salad. If you’ve been using 3 (or more) tablespoons of regular

salad dressing per 2 cups of salad, try cutting back to 1½ tablespoons or less of dressing

or use a non-fat dressing.

4. Switch from 2 tablespoons of regular mayonnaise to 2 tablespoons of fat-free

mayonnaise (Saves 100 calories).

5. If you’ve been drinking from a 21-ounce container of a regular soft drink, switch to a
12-ounce size (110 vs. 210 calories).
