Five Steps to a 5-Star Body

I was browsing through my usual sites this morning while I was drinking my tea this morning when I came across this article about Five Steps to a 5-Star Body. In a nutsheel:

1. Sleep! - Try to catch 7 to 9 hours each night.

2. Exercise! - Breaking a sweat can help you lose weight, but it can also curb cravings, help you live longer, reduce stress, undo some of the damage of eating fatty foods—and those are just a few of the benefits.

3. Eat right! - No, you don’t have to count calories. You can eat healthy and have delicious, filling and satisfying meals (snacks, too!).

4. Stretch! - Limbering up is a way to thank your muscles for all the hard work they do for you each day.

5. Talk yourself up! - This might be the most important part of the five-star plan: Giving yourself a well-deserved pat on the back for simply being strong, smart and healthy.

Create your own five-star days: You can use free online logs to track the stars you earn each day.

Good Luck!
