Drink lots of water

Re-examine the food you are eating

Have a look at the food you are eating and swap two ingredients for healthier versions. For example swap sugar in your tea or coffee with raw honey. Or eat wholegrain breads and pasta instead of white. Don't overload your salad with salad dressing, use a light option or balsamic vinegar and olive oil. There are so many small changes you can make that will make a big impact to your health.

Move more!

If you know you are not going to be able to get to the gym or go for that run try moving more during the day. Take the stairs instead of the lift. Park your car as far away as possible from the shop or your office. If you have been sitting for over an hour at your desk get up and walk around for a few minutes. 

There are so many small tweaks you can make to your daily life that will get you on the path to the best and healthiest version of yourself.
