Ounces of Weight - Prevention

If you have lost weight (or are trying to),
The CDC notes three (3) main things that you should do
to help keep yourself from gaining back any more weight.

1.  Choose an Eating Plan
     Eating correctly, and eating the right foods are known to
     be of major importance in controlling weight.
     There are a lot of things out there, some better than others.
     Make sure that the foods that you eat give you sound nutrition
     and do not fall into the "Fad" category.  Eat those veggies
     and some fruits.  Pay attention to your fat intake. 
     Learn how to prepare your foods in a healthy and tasty way.

2.  Move More
     We all know that getting more exercise is going to
     burn off more calories and will help us to lose and
     control our weight.  Don't make excuses to sit down.
     Look for ways that you can do more physical things.

3. Self-Monitor
    We need to pay attention to what we eat, drink, and
    how much physical activity we get.   It is important
    to know what we are doing and how.  Most of us know
    if we are eating the wrong things, and if we get very
    much (if any) exercise.  Keep a daily journal if
    you need to do so.  Just a daily note is all that you
    need to do.  It does not need to be a major thing that
    takes up a lot of your time.
