Habits to Do Before Bed to Help You Eat Healthier
​It can be tough to stick to a healthy eating plan when you’re tempted by junk food or too busy to think about what you’re going to eat ahead of time. Use the quiet hours before bed to focus on how you can give your body the nutrients it needs without excess calories.
   Minimize late night snacking
  • ​​It's easy to wolf down too many chips or sweets while you're watching late night movies. Limit yourself to one healthy treat like an apple or toasted whole wheat pit slices with hummus.
  Go to bed on time
  • Your body burns calories more efficiently when you’re well rested. Aim for 8 hours of sleep a night. Darken your bedroom and turn on a fan if you need to block out street noise.
  Release stress
  • Letting go of irritations and stress will help you to fall asleep peacefully at night and make healthy food choices during the day. Listen to relaxing, enjoyable music or do some yoga stretches.
​  Plan for breakfast
  • Give your taste buds something to look forward to. Chop up fresh fruit and store it in the refrigerator overnight so you can quickly add it to yogurt, or chop up vegetables so they are prepped and ready for your morning omelet.
  Pack your lunch
  • While you’re at it, whip up a light lunch to take to the office. Good choices include a bean salad or a fish taco.
  Keep a food journal
  • If you’re having trouble losing weight, you may be eating more calories than you think. Writing in a journal can help you spot patterns and make changes.
  Be thankful
  • Appreciate your body. Before you close your eyes, think of food as a friend that gives you the fuel you need to enjoy your life and accomplish your goals.
