Eat the same foods you're used to, but reduce the portion. Making small changes and sticking with them ensures that you create healthier habits, which works better in the long run. Be careful of creating too many goals for yourself. It's tempting to tackle your finances, body and relationships in a huge to-do list, but it's too overwhelming and easy to disappoint yourself. Why not try to incorporate a few goals simultaneously? If you'd like to volunteer more, get fit and spend time with your family, then try helping out a charity by building homes. Bring a family member along, and you'll spend time together while using a little elbow grease to help someone else.
