  12. Healthy Weight Loss Strategies Eat YOUR daily calorie needs to meet your body's energy 
needs. Include your favorites in moderation. Eat smaller amounts of 
your favorite high-calorie foods and eat them less often. (Watch 
portion size!) Eat a variety of low-calorie, nutrient dense foods. Nutrient dense foods are foods that are high in nutrients as compared with their calorie content. Whole-grain products, vegetables 
and fruits are examples of low-calorie, nutrient dense foods. Drink plenty of water. (8 glasses a day!) (Glencoe Health, p. 148)

hear rate should be to burn calories. EXERCISE for at least 30 minutes/ 4 days a week! Toned muscles help you burn fat even when you are 
resting! Relieves stress that leads to over or under eating. Promotes a normal appetite response, which helps you 
to maintain a healthy weight. Increases self-esteem, which helps keep your plan on 
track. (Glencoe Health, p. 150)
