Isn eating cheese another way to add unwanted weight?
A3: Too many calories and too little physical activity causes the numbers on the scale to creep upwards. Make sure your diet is balanced with a wide variety of foods. The best diet incorporates the foods you love most, including cheese. One of the most effective ways to manage your weight is to increase physical activity. Start slowly – walk ten minutes. Increase your time until you are participating in physical activity thirty minutes most days of the week. Activities will burn calories instead of storing them. To make healthy eating and physical activity choices: • Be realistic – make small changes over time • Be adventurous – expand your tastes to enjoy a variety of foods. This includes trying naturally lower in fat cheeses such as part-skim mozzarella and ricotta. • Be flexible – balance what you eat and the physical activity you do over several days. • If you indulge in your favorite cheese one day, balance your intake with increased activity and smaller portions the next time. •
