As we head into 2008, here are three healthy New Year’s resolutions to add to your list.

Watch What You Eat
Whether you want to lose weight or simply sustain your current weight, it’s important to watch what you eat. The easiest way to do so is to keep an eye on how many calories you are consuming daily. If you find yourself eating out a lot, you should at least try to limit your caloric intake. To do so, check the calorie count on your favorite foods to make sure you aren’t eating food on a daily basis that is overly high in calories. If you are on a more strict diet, you can set a daily calorie goal and then try to stick to that number.

Exercise More Often
Nearly all of us could afford to exercise more often. Exercise is a vital part of a healthy lifestyle. Even if you are happy with your weight, you should still exercise to keep your body healthy. Exercise is also a natural release for built up stress and anxiety. If you are just beginning your exercising, you can start off with just walking. Setting a goal to walk more often is a great way to get into the habit of exercising.

Smile
You can improve your quality of life and even live longer if you can just smile more often. Multiple studies have shown a correlation between happiness and overall health. It’s amazing how much healthier you will feel if you just make it a priority to smile and enjoy the small things in life!
