Walking with a Dog
A canine walking partner is ideal in many ways. First, dogs usually can be relied upon to not have excuses, and to prod you that it is time to go walkies. Second, walking with a dog increases your personal security when walking -potential attackers see you as a target they would rather avoid. You will also find that the dog provides a conversation starter and you may make new friends along the way.

The Milk Step-Down
What kind of milk do you drink or use in cooking? You can eliminate a significant amount of fat from your diet by choosing lower-fat milk. Instead of cream, substitute whole milk. If you normally use whole milk, switch to 2%. If you use 2%, go to non-fat milk.
