Three killer moves to destroy Active Fat
Get Moving
Take the kids to the local park or pool on a Saturday morning.
Sign up for a charity sporting event like the night time walk Shine, a BHF Big Bike Ride, or take on a challenge for Diabetes UK.
Find out about sports and physical activities in your area by postcode from martial arts to family activities.
Download a free app like Runkeeper to get the stats, maps and calorie counts on your runs, cycles etc. Or if walking is more your thing check out walk4life and find walks in your area.
Food Swaps
Switch meat for baked or grilled fish once or twice a week and make one an oily fish like salmon, mackerel or sardines. Beans and lentils are a great alternative in curries too.
Swap sugary drinks for sugar-free or no added sugar ones and full fat stuff for reduced fat options (e.g. go for skimmed or semi-skimmed milk).
See how you measure up on the Change4life-ometer to see where you can start making healthier choices.
Take out the takeaway - cook up an easy stir fry instead. Or check out foods to avoid and healthier options when ordering your favourite takeaway.
Fancy a snack? Swap those chocolate bars and crisps for apples and bananas. Get more tips on snack swaps.
Easy on the Booze
Track your units with this simple alcohol tracker and find out how many burgers your last drinking session was equivalent to!
If you're at the pub try alternating your drinks with sugar free or no added sugar soft drinks or why not try a low alcoholic version? Offer to be the designated driver next time you're off out.
If you're at home try an alcohol free evening and use smaller glasses.
