For the month of February, I challenged myself to post one healthy tip per day on my Instagram account. It was a lot of fun and there's so much more where that came from! While I knew I had a lot of nutrition education to draw from as a patient and as a student, this community was so great about providing their own healthy tips and ideas. Thanks so much for a great conversation. And per your many requests I've provided a PDF file of #28healthytips that you can download, hang on your fridge, mail to a friend, or stick on your filing cabinet!

Now, 28 healthy tips is a lot. It can feel overwhelming. If you are looking to make changes that last, start with implementing just one or two tips. Conventional wisdom and scientific studies show that it can take up to 40 times before a new habit sticks and is incorporated into your lifestyle. It helps if you do it with a friend who can hold you accountable. Once those one or two tips have stuck, try one or two more tips and before you know it a positive snowball effect of change is occurring in your life. Also, setbacks are a good thing so stay away from the F word (failure). Setbacks, mistakes, falling off the path, whatever you call it, you need to have them to keep moving forward.
I'd love to hear from you! What tip resonated the most? Which one would be the easiest to achieve? Which one would be a stretch goal? For me, breaking up with sugar is a constant process, a constant stretch goal.
