NEAT TIPS SHARED BY OUR READERS
Neat Tip#1
When I have only one or two grocery bags while leaving the store, I do bicep curls with the bags all the way to the car. You can also use your bags to practice grip strength and pinch strength, which are two critical faculties we tend to lose over time if we're not using them. Cathrine Duffy.
OTHER TIPS SHARED
Substitute monk fruit for sugar!

Recipe Feedback#1
"Thank you for sharing that Summer Watermelon Feta Salad recipe. I was preparing fish for dinner, and this salad was the perfect complement for that dish. I am always on the lookout for new recipes, and this one was easy to make and tasted terrific. I continue to use the dressing for other salads as well." Elizabeth Brady
WHAT IS NON-EXERCISE ACTIVITY THERMOGENESIS (NEAT)?
It's the Little Things
Overwhelmed with the idea of working out? Start small! Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (NEAT) is the energy expended for everything we do that is not sports-like exercise (or sleeping/eating). Add some NEAT to your day:
-
Pick a parking spot that’s farther away;
-
Pace/stand while on the phone;
-
Take the stairs;
-
Have “walking meetings” when possible.
