AMARILLO --- Summer is a great time to develop healthier habits. Weight Watchers shared some tips on packing your cooler.
Stay Hydrated: Staying hydrated when outdoors in the summer heat is very important. Your best picnic beverage option is water and you can spruce up the flavor by adding lemon and orange slices. Just fill a pitcher with water and ice, add in some lemon and orange slices and let sit for a few hours before serving.
Focus on Power Foods: Forget the chips and junk food. Fruits, veggies, whole grains, non-fat dairy and protein can all be a part of a healthy picnic! At Weight Watchers we call these Power Foods ...foods that are good for you and actually keep you satisfied longer.
If you are trying to lose weight, its important to pack healthy snacks. Some ideal ones are a seasonal fruit salad, roasted almonds, baked chips and pretzels.
