March Ahead to Better Health

Posted on March 1, 2016 by Deb Hart

March is National Nutrition Month and a great opportunity to make a small change each day to improve your health and wellness. As Will Durant said, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” Work these small behaviors into habits and you’re likely to improve your health.

March 1:  Organize Your Kitchen

It’s time to toss outdated foods and condiments and those that don’t work for your post-bariatric surgery meal plan.  You may be tempted to keep the chocolate chip cookies for the children, grandchildren or spouse, but if they are going to be a temptation—best to purge. Give refrigerator and freezer surfaces a good wipe down. Organize cupboards and counters. A well-organized kitchen will make it easier to select and prepare healthy foods.
