Are You Gaining?

One in three American adults is considered clinically obese. These four bad habits are largely to blame:
Eating out: Americans today are eating out more often than ever before and it's not good for the waistline. Cut fat and calories by eating more quick-to-fix meals at home. If you still find yourself eating out you should opt for the healthy choices on the menu.
Super-sizing: We want the best deal for our dollar, but don’t fall into the trap of ordering oversize portions for a few cents more. That is no bargain. Stick to small orders, but still sure to watch your portion sizes. A lot of times the "small" size can be more than a single serving.
Liquid sugar: Drink water or tea rather than soda or other sugary drinks. Did you know you can put on pounds by drinking soda? Even diet sodas have been linked to weight gain, and are full of artificial chemicals.
Too much TV: Instead of sitting on the couch to unwind, do something active. Go for a walk, head to the park, do anything but sit.
