© Aurora Health Care, Inc. Why Read Food Labels? Read food labels to find out more about the foods you eat. For instance, the labels can tell you which foods are: Lower in Calories, Saturated Fat and Trans Fat We also read labels: To determine Healthy Eating Goals Step 1: Become Aware Step 2: Create a Plan Step 3: Measure your success by reflecting on how you felt about your eating choices, both physically and emotionally.

© Aurora Health Care, Inc. Step 1: Become Aware Start with The Serving Size: – How Many Servings are you eating? If you are eating more than the listed serving size you will need to multiple the amount of nutrients you are consuming. – I.e.: Eating 2 Muffins from the Container = Calories: 500 Total Fat: 24g

© Aurora Health Care, Inc. Eating the Right Number of Calories (2010 Guidelines) Calories are a measure of the energy you get from food. If you eat more calories than you use, you will gain weight. If you eat few calories than you use, you will lose weight. Below are tables that give the number of calories needed each day. Look for your gender, age, and activity level. If you stick to this number, you should NEITHER gain nor lose weight. Note that this is an estimated number of calories.* Your exact number may differ. Age in Years Low Activity Level (calories/day) Moderate Activity Level (calories/day) High Activity Level (calories/day) 19 to 30 1,800-2,0002,000-2,2002, to 50 1,8002,0002, & older 1,6001,8002,000-2,200 Age in Years Low Activity Level (calories/day) Moderate Activity Level (calories/day) High Activity Level (calories/day) 19 to 30 2,400-2,6002,600-2,8003, to 50 2,200-2,4002,400-2,6002,800-3, & older 2,000-2,2002,200-2,4002,400-2,800 Activity Levels Defined: Low.

Free Food & Exercise Trackers: * Try tracking food & beverages for 1 week. Then, review your week to see what 1 change you would like to make happen.

© Aurora Health Care, Inc. How to Determine What Works for YOU? Each week reflect on the lifestyle changes you made, and ask yourself: –Did I notice any changes in my weight, energy level, stress, sleep pattern, emotional state, increased Self-Efficacy, etc...? Yes, I did notice changes! Some, but not my weight! No, there were no noticeable changes! Great! Do you feel the changes you made could be sustained for another week, lifetime? If not, what is replicable? Great! Weight loss takes time. Small changes lead to Big Success. What will be more motivating this week: More Aggressive Action Plan Focus is off Weight Loss & on Building a New Habit Are you trying to Maintain? If not, what barriers are in the way of your success?
