From Dr. Thomas Andrews

• Be Active
  
  An active lifestyle include many easy-to-do activities such as taking the stairs, walking the dog, parking your own car. Active people have a 35% to 55% lower risk of a heart attack
  
  
• Measure Your Exercise Success
  
  Exercise raises high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels as much as wine or weight loss.
  
  
• It is Never Too Late to Start
  
  The risks are small and only apply to sedentary people who suddenly attempt heavy exertion. Be saavy and make exercise a part of every day.

From Dr. Margo Denke

• Cut your portion sizes, particularly when you eat out.
  
  Restaurants march to a different drummer, and the beat may be hazardous to your health. The restaurant goal is meal satisfaction; your goal is to maintain a lean body weight
  
  
• Be Creative
  
  Soups are a great way to take in five vegetables; gelatin with fruit can be a low-calorie nutritional dessert.
  
  
• Hungry Between Meals
  
  Are you really hungry or are you bored, stressed or anxious? Snaking isn't innocent; some snacks provide more calories than a meal. Make sure that the food you decide to eat enriches your body.
