Breakfast: Egg white omelet made with onions and peppers with low-fat cheese with a glass of orange juice
Lunch: Mixed green salad with one to four oz. baked chicken breast
Dinner: Grilled salmon with roasted veggies and brown rice
EXERCISE
Exercise on the Lighten Up! way of life will include something that you enjoy doing. The key is for exercise not to feel like an obligation, but something you look forward to doing. Some activities that this might include would be:
Dancing to your favorite songs in your living room for 40 minutes
Chasing your kids or playing outdoor games with them
Taking a walk after dinner with your family around the neighborhood
