Eating at the caf…
When going for salads avoid creamy salad dressings!
Choose bread and wraps made from whole grains. Avoid white bread!
Ask for smaller portion sizes. Less on your plate the less likely you will overeat
Go for dark greens and salads. The darker the more nutritious they are!
Try and stick to drinking water
Cooking in your suites…
Choose lean meats when you are out shopping!
Don’t go shopping when you are hungry. You are more likely to make impulsive and unhealthy choices
Avoid the frozen food section (fresh also
tastes best!)
Grill, bake or steam your food versus fry-
ing. Avoid the use of oil and butter
Enjoy Thanksgiving from your Ongoing Train-
