>the gym or a 45-minute cardiovascular class or body
>pump or kickboxing. Move more and feel better!
>Cut the Fat
>Don't eat the obvious fat in your diet such as fried
>foods, burgers and other fatty meats. Eat dairy
>products like cheese, cottage cheese, milk and cream
>low fat versions. Nuts and sandwich meats, mayonnaise,

>limited amounts and even then in their low fat
>verions. Most are available in lower fat versions.
