Chef Nikki Shaw

Chef Nikki - The Lucky 7 Smart Eating Tips 1. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Jump-start your morning with a healthy choice. 2. Eat fresh fruits & vegetables everyday. Take a weekly trip to the Farmer’s Market & buy produce that’s in season. 3. Choose lean chicken, fish & turkey. Cut back on beef & pork, they’re higher in fat & take longer to digest. 4. Get some form of daily exercise. Walk for 20 minutes a day, walk like you’re late for an important date! 5. Drink plenty of water. Replace sugary juices & sodas with water. 6. Control your portion size. Each portion of food on your plate should be the size of a deck of cards. 7. Time-out for mealtime. Eating in front of a TV or computer screen is distracting, which can lead to over-eating.
