We all want to feel healthy and trim, but no one wants to deprive themselves of the things they love. In fact, cutting out the things we love often means we don’t keep up the changes we make for very long.


One of the best ways to be healthy is to make some exercise and food swaps, and build them into your life for the long term. The more you do, the better you'll feel.

Grab a grill

Try grilling breakfast foods, rather than having a full fry-up.
Mix and match

If you know you’ll be having a proper dinner later, keep an eye on the calories by having a lighter lunch.
Pack it in

Plan ahead and try to take a packed lunch to work or when you are out and about. It can work out cheaper.
Spot the difference

Swap a big dinner plate for a smaller one and you’ll have a smaller portion. It will also look as if you have more food on your plate too.
