“HEALTHY EATING ON<br />
THE RUN”<br />
Increasingly, consumers want<br />
fast, easy, and good-tasting foods<br />
to fit their busy lifestyles. Eating<br />
out has become part of the<br />
American way of life. Today, food<br />
is available almost everywhere –<br />
schools, businesses, drugstores,<br />
convenience stores, bookstores,<br />
supermarkets, vending machines,<br />
sports and cultural events, and<br />
recreation centers. The following<br />
tips will help you make wise food<br />
choices for “Healthy Eating,<br />
Healthy You.”<br />
1. Choose fried foods only<br />
sometimes – go for grilled,<br />
broiled, or steamed foods more<br />
often.<br />
2. Order the regular or kidsize<br />
portion. Mega-sized servings<br />
are probably more then you need.<br />
3. Split your order. Share<br />
fries or an extra large sandwich<br />
with a friend.<br />
4. Boost the nutrients in<br />
sandwiches by adding tomato,<br />

5. A baked potato offers<br />
more fiber and fewer calories than<br />
fries, just go easy on the sour<br />
cream and butter. Top your potato<br />
with broccoli, a small amount of<br />
cheese or salsa.<br />
6. At the deli or sub shop,<br />
choose lean beef, ham, turkey, or<br />
chicken on whole grain bread.<br />
7. For a lighter meal, order<br />
an appetizer for your entree.<br />
8. Go easy on condiments,<br />
sauces, and dressings on sandwiches<br />
and salads. Ask for mustard,<br />
catsup, salsa, or low-fat<br />
spreads and dressings.<br />
9. At the salad bar, pile on<br />
the dark leafy greens, carrots, peppers,<br />
and other fresh vegetables.<br />
Lighten up on mayonnaise-based<br />
salads and high-fat toppings.<br />
10. Restaurant portions too<br />
large? Take home half the main<br />
course for another meal.<br />
11. Pass up all-you-can-eat<br />
specials, buffets, and unlimited<br />
salad bars if you tend to eat too<br />
much.<br />
12. Try a smoothie made<br />
with juice, fruit, and yogurt for a<br />
light lunch or snack.<br />

11. There were no Individual<br />
Board Member Issues.<br />
It was the consensus of the<br />
Board to continue on to the next<br />
phase of the energy feasibility<br />
study with Trane Corporation.<br />
12. There being no further business<br />
the meeting adjourned at 8:12<br />
p.m.<br />
13. For the fastest breakfast<br />
of all, go with dry cereal and milk.<br />
Make the cereal whole-grain or<br />
bran and you’ll get fiber along<br />
with B vitamins and complex carbohydrates.<br />
14. Instead of a doughnut,<br />
order an English muffin, bagel, or<br />
a plain soft baked pretzel. Lightly<br />
spread the cream cheese or margarine<br />
– or just use jam or jelly.<br />
15. Be “size wise” about<br />
muffins, bagels, croissants and<br />
biscuits. A jumbo muffin has twice<br />
the fat grams and calories as the<br />
regular size.<br />
16. Look for yogurt and fruit<br />
for a quick, on-the-run breakfast<br />
to start your day.<br />
17. Tuck portable, nonperishable<br />
foods in your purse, briefcase<br />
or backpack for on-the-go<br />
snacking. For example, crackers<br />
and peanut butter, small boxes of<br />
cereal, dried fruit, or pretzels are<br />
good choices. Fresh fruit is<br />
already packaged to go. Try a<br />
variety of seasonal fruits.<br />
