How to make healthy eating work for you

Building a healthy relationship with food starts with having the right mindset and the right tools. Here are a few simple tips to help you get started:

• Cook at home. Cooking your own meals helps you eat a more varied, balanced diet. If you're used to buying food often, try cooking just one or two meals a week to start.
• Understand that your diet isn't going to be perfect. Progress, not perfection, is what matters. Meet yourself where you are. If you're currently eating out every night, cooking just one homemade, veggie packed meal a week is real progress.
• Hydrate the smart way. Staying hydrated is part of healthy eating, and water is the best way to do it.

If you're not used to drinking water often, get a reusable water bottle and add some fruit slices or a squeeze of lemon for flavor.
