Blotting Pizza and 14 Other Easy Things You Can Do...

Being healthy doesn't have to be hard. There are small things you can start doing right now that will make you feel and look better within just a few days. Take a look at these simple steps that will change your life.

1. Blot your pizza!
According to Labdoor, blotting your Dominos pepperoni pizza will save you 4.5 grams of fat and 40.5 calories. Doesn't sound like much, right? Scale that to the average American's pizza intake: 23 pounds per year. That will save you 6611.2 calories every year or the equivalent of 20.4 fewer slices of pizza. That's ~1.9 pounds prevented from going to your waist. A small win!




2. Make a grocery list
Before you go to the grocery store, make a list of everything you need. If it's not on the list, don't buy it. This will prevent impulse buying and bringing unnecessary junk food home.

3. Eat breakfast - every day
You aren't doing your body a favor by starving yourself all morning. Eat something—even something as small as yogurt and fruit—before you head out the door. Eating breakfast kickstarts your metabolism and will help you regulate your weight.
