It’s February and another football season is coming to an end. The teams have been picked and the players are prepped.

If you are doing either, remember that you can still make healthy choices even on a day known for its famously greasy grub. The key to success is all in the preparation. Just as professional athletes follow a game plan, you too can manage your game day - play by play! All you need are a few tips to help you stay on track.

What is it about winter that can lead to excess pounds? Is it the darkness, cold temperatures or the desire to hibernate? It can actually be all of the above! The shorter, darker days definitely make us sleepier and more sedentary. The lack of exercise due to weather or darkness can definitely put a damper on our exercise routines. Depending on where you live, the lack of vitamin D from the sun can increase weight gain by hindering fat breakdown and increasing fat storage. Also, more indoor time may lead to increased snacking or over-eating.

Do you bring or buy your lunch most days? Planning for lunch is a better move with long-term, positive health results. Give yourself 10 minutes at night to prep the night before. Even a mini-meal can count towards keeping our energy up, appetites controlled and improve concentration for the busiest part of the day. Buying lunches daily can add up with costs ranging from $5 to $15 at the end of the month buying lunch daily can run you approximately $100 to $200. Bringing your lunch or eating at home is a real money saver, with the average brown bag lunch costing $2 to $4 on average.

This is a super easy and super healthy salad. The peppery arugula balances against the sweetness of the apples and honey. The blue cheese adds a salty creaminess and the toasted walnuts povide a nice crunch. Serves four!
